ABB ACH580-PCR-032A-6+B056 Packaged Drive - UL Type 1
Part Number: 3AUA0000227309
Quick Summary
ABB ACH580-PCR-032A-6+B056 Packaged Drive is a variable-frequency drive for HVAC fan and pump control. It is designed to optimize motor speed, reduce energy use, and simplify installation in packaged equipment. Facilities struggle with space constraints, wiring complexity, and the risk of unplanned downtime when integrating separate components. This packaged drive helps by combining drive, input disconnect, and protection in a single enclosure, streamlining commissioning and maintenance. It features UL-listed protection and rugged NEMA Type 1/12/3R enclosures for durable operation in harsh environments. With local control via a door-mounted panel and serial communications for plant networks, it supports easy retrofits and scalable control across multiple AHU and chiller applications.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227309 ABB: The ACH580 Packaged Drive includes an ACH580 drive in a UL (NEMA) Type 1, 12 or 3R enclosure with either an input disconnect switch and fast acting fuses or an input circuit breaker. 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
Integrated input disconnect switch and fast-acting fuses or a circuit breaker provide built-in protection, simplifying code compliance and reducing wiring errors. Business impact: faster installation, safer maintenance, and lower cabinet footprint, enabling more compact mechanical rooms and shorter project lead times. Application: packaged HVAC equipment, water pumps, and fan assemblies where space is at a premium and reliability is critical. The door-mounted control panel with graphical display delivers local diagnostics and intuitive setup, lowering commissioning time and minimizing field service calls. Business impact: improved uptime, faster fault isolation, and better operator visibility. Application: plant floors and service corridors where quick troubleshooting matters. Electronic motor overload protection guards the motor against overload and thermal damage, reducing unplanned outages and extending motor life. Application: high-demand HVAC drives with fluctuating loads. External control connections and serial communications enable seamless integration with building management systems and industrial networks, supporting remote monitoring and centralized control. Business impact: reduced wiring complexity, scalable control, and compatibility with BACnet/Modbus or other common protocols. Application: multi-discipline facilities deploying centralized energy management. The broad horsepower range from 1 to 350 hp and voltage options at 230/460/575 V provide installation flexibility for new builds and retrofits, enabling standardization across multiple AHU and chiller installations. Application: diverse commercial and light industrial HVAC projects seeking a single, adaptable drive platform.
