Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227816 ABB: The ACH580 Packaged Drive includes an ACH580 drive in a UL (NEMA) Type 1, 12 or 3R enclosure with input disconnect switch or circuit breaker, both including fast acting drive fuses. 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 packaged drive with a door-mounted disconnect reduces wiring complexity and saves panel space, enabling quicker installations and easier field wiring for HVAC equipment and packaged machinery. The unit’s electronic motor overload protection minimizes unplanned downtime by maintaining motor protection aligned with operating conditions, extending equipment life and reducing maintenance costs. A door-mounted graphical display provides local control and diagnostics, speeding commissioning and facilitating troubleshooting without a separate handheld device. Serial communications capability enables seamless integration with PLCs and building management systems, improving control accuracy and data visibility across the automation network. Compatibility with 230/460/575 V and 1–350 hp, combined with UL-listed enclosure options (Type 1, Type 12, or Type 3R), delivers installation flexibility, regulatory compliance, and a compact footprint for space-constrained environments.

FAQs
Plan for a UL-listed enclosure with available Type 1, Type 12 or Type 3R configurations. Verify voltage compatibility (230/460/575 V) and full load current, locate the door-mounted disconnect for safe access, and ensure the disconnect is padlockable in the OFF position. Route control and power wiring cleanly to minimize EMI and simplify maintenance. Proper labeling and fusing are essential for compliance and safety.
The packaged drive supports 1–350 hp with voltages of 230, 460, or 575 V. The 230 V configuration typically draws high current (as indicated by the 114 A spec in the model descriptor) and uses fast-acting drive fuses. The unit includes electronic motor overload protection and allows serial communications for integration with control systems, delivering reliable performance in HVAC and process applications.
Yes. The ACH580 Packaged Drive is designed for HVAC and packaged equipment, offering a door-mounted disconnect, local control panel, and built-in protection. Its enclosure options and voltage flexibility accommodate common HVAC installations, while its protection features help maintain consistent fan, pump, and compressor operation with reduced downtime and maintenance costs.
The drive is UL-listed and available in UL (NEMA) Type 1, Type 12, or Type 3R enclosure configurations. These options support installation in a range of environments—from standard electrical rooms to more demanding locations—while meeting safety and compliance requirements typical for industrial automation and HVAC projects.
Integrated protection and a door-mounted disconnect reduce wiring errors and component count, speeding maintenance and commissioning. The graphical local control panel simplifies troubleshooting, while serial communications enable remote monitoring and integration with control systems. Overall, you can expect lower downtime, improved energy efficiency, and faster project ROI due to streamlined installation and reliable operation.
