Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227406 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
The packaged drive places the ACH580 in a UL/NEMA Type 1/12/3R enclosure with an input disconnect and fast-acting fuses or a circuit breaker. This reduces field wiring, shortens installation time, and improves fault protection, lowering commissioning costs. Applicable to commercial HVAC installations from rooftop units to air handling systems. The door-mounted graphical control panel with electronic motor overload protection enables fast local setup, reduces nuisance trips, and simplifies maintenance; ideal for on-site commissioning in mechanical rooms. External control connections and serial communications capability simplify integration with building management systems and remote monitoring, reducing project risk and speeding up commissioning. With a horsepower range of 1–350 hp and voltages of 230/460/575 V, the drive accommodates a wide set of motors, reducing spare-part inventories and enabling scalable upgrades. Safety and compliance features, including a padlockable disconnect, UL listing, and UL/NEMA enclosure options, support safe maintenance and regulatory compliance for rooftop units and packaged HVAC systems. Together, these features deliver improved energy efficiency, lower total cost of ownership, and a smoother path from installation to operation for mid- to large-scale commercial HVAC projects.
