By enabling local and remote control with built-in protections and communications, it reduces downtime and supports energy-efficient HVAC strategies. The packaged design streamlines installation in cramped electrical rooms and reduces wiring errors. Designed for serviceability, it supports straightforward maintenance and quicker spare-part matching for sustainment contracts. With robust motor overload protection and clear local display, engineers gain confidence during commissioning.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227405 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 drive with built-in disconnect streamlines installation and wiring complexity. The ABB ACH580 Packaged Drive combines the drive, a door-mounted input disconnect, and fast-acting fuses or an input circuit breaker in a single module, which shortens panel wiring and supports faster commissioning for HVAC equipment. This approach minimizes field errors and accelerates system startups for commercial buildings and industrial cooling projects. Flexible enclosure options and safety compliance. The Packaged Drive is available in UL (NEMA) Type 1, Type 12, or Type 3R enclosures, helping meet diverse indoor installation needs and code requirements. The door-mounted, padlockable disconnect enhances safety and helps maintain compliance during maintenance windows. This packaging also reduces external switchgear footprints, saving cabinet space in tight machine rooms. Local and remote control with communications. A door-mounted control panel with graphical display enables local configuration and diagnostic checks; you can also connect external controls and leverage serial communications for remote monitoring. These capabilities support centralized control strategies and integration with building management systems, improving operator response times and fault visibility in HVAC applications. Electrical performance and protection. The ACH580 Packaged Drive covers 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V, suitable for a wide range of HVAC fans and pumps. It includes electronic motor overload protection to guard motors against overload conditions, and supports 230/460/575 V supply, which reduces the need for transformer upgrades in mixed-fleet facilities. The combination of protection and control improves reliability and reduces maintenance costs. Installation and long-term value. The packaged design supports simpler spare parts matching and easier service access, especially during upgrades. With robust protections and flexible control options, it enables energy-management strategies that lower operating expenses and extend equipment life. For engineering teams, this translates to lower total cost of ownership and faster project ROI. Optional remote diagnostics and future-ready design. The ACH580 Packaged Drive supports serial communications and external control connections, enabling remote fault analytics, trending, and firmware updates without on-site visits. This capability reduces maintenance windows and extends asset life through proactive management, making it a future-ready choice for buildings and manufacturing facilities.
