Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227836 ABB: The ACH580 Packaged Drive includes an ACH580 drive in a UL (NEMA) Type 1, 12 or 3R enclosure with either an input disconnect switch and fast acting fuses or an input circuit breaker. 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 assembly in a single enclosure with a door-mounted graphical control panel and a built-in input disconnect simplifies field wiring and trim-out. Business impact: faster commissioning, fewer errors, and safer maintenance; application: HVAC fans, pumps, and other motor loads. The system offers a choice of fast-acting fuses or an input circuit breaker, improving electrical protection and compliance with safety standards on install sites. Electronic motor overload protection guards windings against startup surges and overloads, extending motor life and reducing unplanned downtime in critical process areas. Serial communications capability enables remote monitoring and integration with PLC/SCADA systems, supporting predictive maintenance and energy management in industrial facilities. With 1–350 hp rating across 230/460/575 V, this package minimizes spare-part diversity while ensuring robust performance in mid-size HVAC and process-control applications. The enclosure options, including UL (NEMA) Type 1, Type 12, or Type 3R, allow installation in varied environments without extra fabrication. Overall, installation and commissioning become more predictable, while reliability and compliance stay aligned with industry standards.
