FAQs
The ACH580 integrates with standard HVAC control panels through a door-mounted control interface and external control connections, plus serial communications for networked control. It supports 230/460/575 V and a broad 1–350 hp range, enabling straightforward retrofits or new installations. The built-in graphical display simplifies local commissioning, while the bypass and protective features align with typical plant safety standards.
Key specs include 1–350 hp at 230/460/575 V, a UL (NEMA) Type 1/12/3R enclosure, and an integrated ABB E-Clipse bypass. It also provides electronic motor overload protection and a padlockable OFF position for safe maintenance. These features support compliance with common industrial safety and electrical standards while delivering reliable motor control.
Yes. The ACH580 is designed for retrofit work with its compact footprint, Type 1/12/3R enclosure options, and bypass capability that minimizes downtime during maintenance. Its voltage flexibility and control interfaces simplify integration with existing pumps, fans, and compressors, reducing installation risk and accelerating commissioning in space-constrained panels.
The integrated E-Clipse bypass reduces downtime by allowing bypass operation during service without fully stopping the system. Electronic overload protection minimizes motor wear and unexpected faults, lowering maintenance costs. Energy-efficient VFD control also yields ongoing savings through optimized speed control and reduced peak demand in HVAC applications.
ABB provides product data sheets, installation manuals, and software tools to configure, commission, and monitor the ACH580. Technical support, diagnostic guidance, and network integration recommendations are available to assist with OEM, retrofit, and new-build projects, ensuring safe, compliant, and efficient deployment.
