ABB ACH580 Drive - UL (NEMA) Type 1/12/3R Enclosure
Part Number: 3AUA0000227521
Quick Summary
ABB ACH580 Drive provides precise motor control for industrial equipment like conveyors and pumps. Many users struggle with downtime and energy waste when starters lack integrated protection and local control. The drive is designed around UL-listed NEMA Type 1, 12, and 3R enclosure options and includes electronic motor overload protection, a door-mounted control panel with a graphical display, and serial communications capability. With built-in input disconnect switch or circuit breaker that is door-mounted and interlocked (padlockable in the OFF position), operators gain safer, faster control and easier maintenance. This combination lowers total cost of ownership by improving uptime, reducing energy waste, and enabling scalable automation across manufacturing lines.

FAQs
Yes. The ACH580 comes with ABB E-Clipse bypass integrated and is designed for UL-listed NEMA Type 1, 12 or 3R enclosure configurations. It includes an input disconnect switch or circuit breaker with a door-mounted, interlocked design (padlockable OFF) to meet safety and installation standards.
The ACH580 is available from 1 to 350 horsepower and operates at 230/460/575 V. This broad range supports a variety of industrial loads, from small conveyors to mid-size pumps and fans, with optimized motor control.
Best suited for conveyors, pumps, and fans where reliable local control and a bypass option are essential. The integrated bypass starter, motor overload protection, and door-mounted graphical panel simplify installation and maintenance in automated production lines.
The system ships with UL-listed enclosure options (Type 1/12/3R) and electronic motor overload protection, plus a door-mounted control panel. The interlocked, padlockable OFF input switch adds an extra layer of safety during maintenance and ensures regulatory compliance for controlled shutdowns.
With serial communications capability and external control connections, the ACH580 integrates with PLCs and industrial networks for centralized monitoring, predictive maintenance, and faster troubleshooting. This connectivity reduces downtime, shortens commissioning, and enables scalable automation across multiple production lines.
