ABB ACH580-VCR-07A5-2 HVAC Drive - UL Type 1 Enclosure
Part Number: 3AUA0000227463
Quick Summary
The ABB ACH580-VCR-07A5-2 HVAC drive is a compact, energy-efficient motor controller designed for rooftop and packaged HVAC systems. Engineers often wrestle with integrating a bypass, disconnect, and protection in tight installations, risking downtime during commissioning. UL listing with a NEMA Type 1 enclosure provides safe, compliant operation while the drive offers electronic motor overload protection and fast-acting fuses. Designed for reliability and ease of maintenance, it combines a door-mounted graphical control panel with serial communications for seamless integration into building management systems. The 1 to 75 hp range at 230/460/575 V delivers scalable performance for HVAC applications while reducing energy use and installation footprint.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227463 ABB: The ACH580 with ABB E-Clipse bypass has an integrated UL (NEMA) Type 1 enclosure with a bypass motor starter and is available from 1 to 75 hp at 230/460/575 V.
