ABB 3AUA0000227378 ACH580 Packaged Drive - UL Type 1
Part Number: 3AUA0000227378
Quick Summary
ACH580 Packaged Drive provides precise variable-speed control for HVAC systems using an integrated disconnect in a compact enclosure. Many engineers struggle to balance safety, accessibility, and regulatory compliance in crowded electrical rooms. It is UL-listed and available in NEMA Type 1, 12, or 3R enclosures, supporting safe, code-compliant installation. This combination reduces installation time and simplifies service logistics, while aligning with modern building automation and energy-management goals. Designed for scalable performance from 1 to 350 horsepower and multiple voltage configurations, it supports a range of commercial and light industrial applications. In practice, adopting this packaged solution drives uptime, lowers total cost of ownership, and speeds compliance with HVAC standards.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227378 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.
Integrated packaged drive design combines an ACH580 drive, input disconnect switch, and protective fuses in a single enclosure. This arrangement reduces field wiring complexity, minimizes installation time, and lowers safety risks by consolidating control and protection in one enclosure, making it ideal for rooftop units and packaged HVAC equipment. The business impact is faster commissioning, improved field reliability, and easier regulatory adherence, supporting projects from small office buildings to mid-size facilities where space is premium. Application: rooftop units, air handling units, and packaged systems requiring a compact, code-compliant drive with built-in protection. The long-term benefit is lower total cost of ownership due to reduced wiring errors and simplified maintenance.

FAQs
The ACH580 Packaged Drive supports 1–350 hp motors across 230/460/575 V power networks, allowing a single family of drives to cover a wide range of HVAC and light industrial applications. This reduces stocking diversity and simplifies procurement while ensuring concordance with common US and international specs for packaged equipment.
The drive incorporates a door-mounted input disconnect switch that is padlockable in the OFF position, along with fast-acting drive fuses. This design enhances lockout/tagout compliance, enables rapid isolation during maintenance, and minimizes restart risks after service events.
Yes. The ACH580 Packaged Drive offers external control connections and serial communications capability, enabling seamless BMS integration and remote monitoring. This supports advanced HVAC control strategies, real-time performance tracking, and centralized energy optimization.
The packaged drive is UL-listed within a UL (NEMA) Type 1, 12, or 3R enclosure. These enclosure standards provide proven protection against dust and moisture, along with safe field-service access, which is critical for compliance in commercial and industrial HVAC installations.
Expect reduced maintenance cycles due to electronic motor overload protection and fewer field-wiring errors thanks to an integrated, compact design. ROI improves through uptime gains, lower labor costs during commissioning, and simplified spare parts management since a single drive family can serve multiple project sizes.
