ABB 3AUA0000227819 Motors Drives - UL Type 1 Packaged Drive
Part Number: 3AUA0000227819
Quick Summary
ABB ACH580 Packaged Drive is a motor drive for HVAC systems delivering precise speed control and built-in protection. Facility engineers struggle with space, wiring, and regulatory compliance when integrating a drive with a disconnect. UL listed for US installations with NEMA Type 1, 12, or 3R enclosure options, providing safe, compliant deployments in a compact footprint. The design includes a door-mounted disconnect padlockable OFF, electronic motor overload protection, and a graphical control panel for local operation, plus external control connections and serial communications for centralized automation. By consolidating drive, switch, and protection, this solution reduces installation time, minimizes wiring errors, and improves maintenance predictability for facility managers.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227819 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.

FAQs
The ACH580 Packaged Drive supports 230/460/575 V input and scales from 1 to 350 hp, making it compatible with a wide range of HVAC motors. It comes in UL-listed NEMA Type 1, 12, or 3R enclosures and includes an input disconnect, enabling straightforward, compliant installations in most commercial buildings.
The drive incorporates electronic motor overload protection that monitors current and motor temperature to prevent overloading. This reduces unplanned downtime, minimizes motor wear, and extends drive life, especially in high-demand HVAC applications with frequent start/stop cycles.
Yes. Its compact footprint, integrated disconnect, and wiring simplification make it well-suited for retrofits. The 230/460/575 V compatibility and 1–350 hp range allow upgrading existing HVAC motors without replacing the entire control cabinet, while maintaining compliance and system performance.
The unit is UL listed for US installations and available in NEMA Type 1, Type 12, or Type 3R enclosures, with a padlockable input disconnect. These features support safe operation and regulatory compliance in modern HVAC environments.
Consolidating drive, switch, and protection reduces cabinet real estate and wiring, speeding commissioning. Local control via the graphical panel simplifies maintenance, while serial communications enable remote diagnostics and integration with building management systems, delivering improved uptime and lower lifecycle costs.
