Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000233133 ABB: The ACH580 with ABB E-Clipse bypass has an integrated UL (NEMA) Type 1 enclosure with a bypass motor starter and is available from 1 to 75 hp at 230/460/575 V. The ACH580 with ABB E-Clipse bypass provides an input disconnect switch or circuit breaker, both including fast acting drive fuses, with door mounted and interlocked switch (padlockable in the OFF position), a bypass starter, electronic motor overload protection, a door mounted control panel with graphical display for local control, provisions for external control connections, and serial communications capability
The E-Clipse bypass with bypass motor starter enables quick, safe bypass operation without a separate motor starter—reducing downtime and maintenance costs. This means facilities can keep critical HVAC processes online during service windows while protecting motor windings and drives from surge when switching modes. An integrated UL (NEMA) Type 1 enclosure with door-mounted interlock and fast-acting drive fuses simplifies installation in mechanical rooms and reduces enclosure assembly time, supporting safer, code-compliant installs. The option for an input disconnect switch or circuit breaker, along with fast-acting drive fuses and a door interlock, provides robust power isolation and protection, minimizing arc flash risk and ensuring regulatory compliance in busy mechanical spaces. A door-mounted control panel with a graphical display, external control connections, and serial communications capability accelerates commissioning and ongoing optimization, reducing on-site programming effort and enabling seamless integration with building management systems. With 1–75 hp compatibility and support for 230/460/575 V, this drive delivers broad motor compatibility, consolidating spare parts and simplifying procurement for HVAC projects. In addition, safety-minded features like a padlockable OFF position and clearly isolated controls support routine maintenance without compromising system integrity, translating to lower lifecycle costs and higher system uptime.

FAQs
Begin by selecting a 230/460/575 V supply compatible with your motor. Mount the drive inside a UL Type 1 enclosure and ensure the door interlock is engaged with the padlockable OFF position. Connect the input disconnect or circuit breaker with fast-acting fuses, then wire external control connections and enable serial communications. Use the door-mounted graphical panel for commissioning and tuning. This setup minimizes field wiring errors and speeds up handover.
The ACH580-VCR-077A-6 supports 1 to 75 hp motors at 230/460/575 V, draws up to 77 A, and includes electronic motor overload protection. It features an integrated bypass starter, a bypass motor path, and a door-mounted control panel with graphical display. Optional serial communications enable integration with building management systems for centralized monitoring and control.
Yes. The ACH580-VCR-077A-6 is designed for both new and retrofit HVAC applications. Its UL Type 1 enclosure with E-Clipse bypass simplifies retrofits by providing a compact, integrated solution that supports existing motor sizes up to 75 hp. The drive’s energy-efficient motor control helps reduce running costs, while its wiring and control panel facilitate quick replacement and minimal downtime.
This drive uses a UL (NEMA) Type 1 enclosure, includes a bypass starter, fast-acting drive fuses, electronic motor overload protection, and a door-mounted interlocked switch that's padlockable in OFF. These features ensure compliant, safe operation in mechanical rooms and support code requirements for power distribution and equipment isolation.
Expect reduced downtime due to the E-Clipse bypass and integrated bypass starter, improved energy efficiency from precise motor control, and simplified maintenance via a door-mounted graphic interface. The drive’s compatibility with 230/460/575 V and 1–75 hp motors lowers inventory and procurement effort, delivering faster project timelines and a solid return on investment.
