ABB 3AUA0000227914 ACH580 Packaged Drive - UL Type 1
Part Number: 3AUA0000227914
Quick Summary
ABB ACH580 Packaged Drive is a compact HVAC drive that controls motors and fans in packaged unit systems. Engineers often struggle with integrating drives in enclosure-rich layouts while meeting safety and space constraints. UL-listed performance with NEMA Type 1, 12, and 3R enclosure options ensures safe operation in harsh environments; built-in electronic motor overload protection and a door-mounted graphical control panel simplify setup. This package is well-suited for commercial HVAC, rooftop units, and air handling, enabling quick deployment and consistent performance across multiple units.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000227914 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
Enclosed, ready-to-install packaging is a key efficiency feature of the ACH580 Packaged Drive. The unit ships in a UL Type 1/12/3R enclosure and includes an input disconnect switch that is padlockable in the OFF position, improving safety and simplifying service isolation. This design reduces field wiring, minimizes enclosure footprint, and streamlines installation in rooftop units, air handlers, and compact commercial HVAC systems. Protection and reliability are built in. The drive provides electronic motor overload protection, guarding motors against overload and stall conditions, which lowers unplanned downtime and extends equipment life. By combining protection logic with a compact form factor, technicians can rely on consistent motor protection across varying loads and environmental conditions, including dusty or humid facilities. Control interface and commissioning ease. The door-mounted control panel features a graphical display that allows local setup, parameter verification, and fault diagnosis without opening the enclosure. This reduces commissioning time, speeds maintenance, and supports rapid tuning of fan and pump speeds for energy optimization across multi-unit installations. Connectivity and integration capabilities. External control connections plus serial communications enable seamless integration with Building Management Systems and process automation networks. With standardized interfaces, developers can implement remote monitoring, centralized alerts, and auto-tuning sequences, which translates to lower operating costs and faster response to faults. Electrical range, compatibility, and procurement efficiency. The ACH580 Packaged Drive covers 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V, letting you standardize across multiple units rather than stocking separate drives. The integrated features reduce wiring, simplify safety compliance, and lower total cost of ownership by consolidating drive, protection, and control in one enclosure.
