Part Number: 3AUA0000227386
Quick Summary
ABB ACH580-PDR-099A-6 Packaged Drive enables precise fan and pump speed control for HVAC systems. Facility teams frequently wrestle with space limitations, safety requirements, and the complexity of wiring drives across mechanical rooms. This UL-listed ACH580-PDR-099A-6 arrives in a rugged NEMA Type 1, 12, or 3R enclosure, with door-mounted input disconnect and protection features. By combining local control, graphical display, and serial communications in one package, it shortens commissioning, minimizes panel footprint, and sustains reliable, energy-efficient HVAC operation. For engineers, the built-in electronic overload protection, external control compatibility, and door-mounted control panel streamline maintenance and enable compliant, scalable automation in commercial and industrial HVAC projects.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227386 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.
Packaged drive with UL listing and factory-built enclosure reduces on-site wiring complexity and panel footprint, delivering faster commissioning and lower installation costs. The ACH580-PDR-099A-6 consolidates a drive, disconnect switch, fuses, and protection in one unit, which minimizes door-to-door wiring runs and helps meet space constraints in mechanical rooms. In HVAC applications such as rooftop units and air handlers, this integrated solution simplifies start-up, improves safety, and accelerates regulatory compliance. Key safety features include a door-mounted input disconnect with padlockable OFF position and fast-acting drive fuses combined with electronic motor overload protection. This design reduces risk during maintenance and streamlines lockout/tagout procedures, which is especially valuable in busy service environments. The rugged enclosure options (NEMA Type 1, 12, or 3R) further protect electronics from dust, moisture, and incidental exposure. Local control is enhanced by a door-mounted control panel with graphical display, providing quick parameter access and troubleshooting without external devices. Serial communications capability and provisions for external control connections enable seamless integration with building management systems, intelligent controls, and other automation components. These capabilities cut commissioning time and enable scalable automation across multiple fans and pumps. Wide voltage and horsepower range—1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V—supports diverse HVAC loads without inventorying multiple drive families. The packager supports 99 A current handling and 100 HP class at high voltage, reducing the need for multiple part numbers and simplifying spare parts inventory. The solution also offers energy-efficient operation, soft start, and protective features that help achieve compliance with industry standards and reduce energy costs. For engineers and procurement teams, the ACH580-PDR-099A-6 delivers a predictable, install-ready platform with proven ABB reliability, helping shorten project timelines and lower total cost of ownership. Field experience shows faster fault isolation and improved uptime in demanding environments where HVAC drive performance directly impacts comfort and process stability.

FAQs
This packaged drive is ideal for HVAC equipment such as rooftop units, air handling units, and large fans or pumps. Its integrated NEMA enclosure options (Type 1, 12, or 3R) and door-mounted disconnect simplify installation in mechanical rooms, while the local control panel and serial communications support rapid commissioning and seamless integration with building management systems.
The drive integrates a graphical local control panel, serial communications, and external control connections, enabling both standalone operation and remote supervision. This reduces wiring complexity, speeds setup, and allows easy data exchange with BMS/SCADA platforms for monitoring, alarms, and control of fans and pumps in real time.
The unit supports 230/460/575 V input with a horsepower rating from 1 to 350 hp and current up to 99 A. It includes electronic motor overload protection and fast-acting drive fuses, which helps protect equipment, meet electrical codes, and ensure reliable operation for high-voltage HVAC applications.
The ACH580-PDR-099A-6 is UL-listed and offered in NEMA Type 1, Type 12, or Type 3R enclosures. These features provide compliance with common electrical safety requirements for indoor mechanical rooms and outdoor or damp locations, reinforcing reliability and maintenance safety in industrial and commercial installations.
By consolidating drive, disconnect, fuses, and protection into a single enclosure, the solution reduces installation time, wiring errors, and spare parts variety. The built-in protection and diagnostics shorten downtime, enable faster fault isolation, and support energy-efficient operation, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership over the system’s life cycle.
