ABB ACH580-PCR-077A-6 Packaged Drive - UL Type 1/12/3R Enclosure
Part Number: 3AUA0000227297
Quick Summary
ABB ACH580-PCR-077A-6 Packaged Drive is an integrated HVAC drive housed in a UL-listed enclosure for quick, safe installations in commercial and light industrial equipment. Engineers often grapple with wiring complexity, cabinet size, and downtime during commissioning; this packaged solution minimizes panel footprint and speeds maintenance by delivering drive, disconnect, and protection in one unit. Certifications include UL listing with NEMA Type 1, 12, or 3R enclosure configurations to suit diverse installation environments, enhancing safety and compliance. The approach also supports scalable HVAC control with 230/460/575 V options and 1–350 hp ranges, delivering reliable performance. By reducing wiring, simplifying control interfaces, and enabling centralized diagnostics, this solution helps lower total cost of ownership for building automation projects.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227297 ABB: The ACH580 Packaged Drive includes an ACH580 drive in a UL (NEMA) Type 1, 12 or 3R enclosure with input disconnect switch or circuit breaker, both including fast acting drive fuses. It is available from 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V. The ACH580 Packaged Drive provides a door-mounted input disconnect switch (padlockable in the OFF position), electronic motor overload protection, a door-mounted control panel with graphical display for local control, provisions for external control connections, and serial communications capability.
Feature 1: Integrated input disconnect switch or circuit breaker with fast-acting drive fuses → Business impact: safer, code-compliant maintenance and rapid isolation during service or emergencies; Application: HVAC equipment in commercial systems, reducing downtime during filter or coil work. Feature 2: Door-mounted control panel with graphical display and external control connections → Business impact: faster commissioning and intuitive local control, improving technician productivity and reducing startup risk; Application: field service and retrofit projects on air handlers and packaged units. Feature 3: UL-listed enclosure options (Type 1, 12, 3R) and NEMA compatibility → Business impact: versatile installation across indoor and outdoor environments, lowering enclosure procurement complexity; Application: rooftop units, mechanical rooms, and equipment rooms with varying exposure. Feature 4: Electronic motor overload protection and built-in fuses → Business impact: enhanced motor protection, reduced motor burnout, and longer asset life; Application: fan and pump drives where sudden load spikes occur. Feature 5: Serial communications capability and centralized control options → Business impact: easier integration with building management systems (BMS) and remote diagnostics, cutting maintenance costs and improving energy management; Application: smart HVAC systems and energy-optimized facilities. Feature 6: Broad horsepower and voltage range (1–350 hp, 230/460/575 V) → Business impact: scalable deployment across multiple equipment footprints; Application: scalable fan arrays and variable torque applications in large-scale comfort cooling and process HVAC. Insight: In industrial HVAC projects, packaging the drive with a disconnect and protection reduces engineering hours, accelerates approvals, and improves compliance with electrical codes while keeping fault tracing straightforward for service teams.
