FAQs
Install the ACH580 by placing it in a suitable MCC or enclosure that supports UL NEMA Type 1/12/3R. First confirm the power supply (230/460/575 V) and horsepower up to 350 hp. Mount the drive and the E-Clipse bypass, wire the input disconnect or circuit breaker with an interlocked door, and attach the door-mounted panel for local control. Use the padlockable OFF feature during wiring and commissioning to meet lockout/tagout requirements.
The ACH580 supports 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V, with a UL-listed NEMA Type 1/12/3R enclosure and integrated E-Clipse bypass. It includes electronic motor overload protection and a door-mounted graphical control panel for local operation. The drive supports external control connections and serial communications, enabling seamless integration with PLC/SCADA systems.
Yes. The ACH580 is designed for demanding applications such as conveyors and pumps, offering a rugged UL-listed enclosure with Type 1/12/3R ratings and the E-Clipse bypass for safe bypass operation. The built‑in overload protection guards motor windings against overloads, while the door-mounted graphical display facilitates quick setup and fault diagnosis in dusty or humid plants.
The ACH580 is UL-listed and designed for NEMA Type 1/12/3R enclosures, delivering proven protection in a variety of plant environments. While it supports local control and remote integration, the key certification focus is the UL listing and the enclosure ratings that determine where it can be installed—from office-level spaces to machine rooms. Always verify regional compliance requirements, but this configuration is ready for many industrial settings.
From a maintenance and ROI perspective, the ACH580 reduces downtime with an integrated bypass and robust overload protection, limiting motor damage and unplanned stops. The door-mounted panel speeds setup and troubleshooting, while local and remote control options shorten commissioning cycles. Over time, fewer components and simpler wiring translate into lower maintenance costs and faster payback for automation projects.
