Key certifications include UL listing with a NEMA Type 1 enclosure and robust motor protection, delivering safer, compliant operation. By integrating drive, disconnect, and control in one unit, this packaged solution reduces wiring, speeds startup, and lowers total cost of ownership. This combination supports scalable automation projects and simplifies maintenance, making it a strong fit for modern industrial facilities. Engineers benefit from reduced panel footprint and faster commissioning, translating into shorter downtime and reliable process control.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUD0000003508 ABB: The ACS580-0P Packaged Drive includes an ACS580 drive in a UL (NEMA) Type 1 as standard, or optional 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 ACS580 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
The packaged design combines drive electronics, an input disconnect switch, and a door-mounted control panel into a single enclosure, reducing panel footprint and wiring complexity. This consolidation speeds initial setup and minimizes field wiring errors, particularly in compact machines. The combination is ideal for packaging lines, small conveyors, and compact pumping stations. Power flexibility covers 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V, enabling a single drive to serve multiple line configurations. This scalability reduces part inventories and simplifies procurement for manufacturers with expanding lines. Applications include packaging equipment, pumps, and light-duty machine tools. Electronic motor overload protection monitors motor current and temperature to prevent costly stalls and coil damage. In combination with the control panel, operators can quickly verify protection status and set thresholds during commissioning. This translates to lower maintenance costs and higher uptime for automated lines. External control connections and serial communications simplify integration with PLCs and SCADA systems, supporting remote start/stop, fault reporting, and parameter updates. Local control is available via a graphical display on the door, while fieldbus options streamline changes in running production. These features reduce engineering time and improve changeover efficiency. Optional 12 or 3R enclosures expand environment suitability, allowing indoor and certain outdoor or harsher environments while maintaining a compact footprint. This versatility helps facilities meet electrical and safety codes without purchasing separate protective cabinets. For teams seeking faster installation, the packaged drive minimizes compatibility hesitations and accelerates project ramp-up. Built-in features such as a door-mounted control panel with a graphical display support local operation, diagnostics, and parameter tuning. The device also comes ready for external control connections and serial communications, ensuring smooth integration into existing automation architectures.

FAQs
The ACS580 Packaged Drive integrates with ABB and third-party control architectures via its door-mounted control panel and serial communications capability, plus provisions for external control connections. This enables straightforward PLC/SCADA integration, local start/stop control from the panel, and seamless parameter import/export, reducing commissioning time and wiring complexity. It also supports remote diagnostics and firmware updates over the serial link, helping maintenance teams plan upgrades without disruptive site visits.
This model supports 1 to 350 hp at 230/460/575 V, with a UL (NEMA Type 1) packaged enclosure standard and optional 12 or 3R enclosures. The flexible voltage and power range allow it to cover a wide spectrum of pumps, conveyors, and machine tools while maintaining safe, code-compliant installation. This reduces spare-part diversity and accelerates deployment.
The base model ships in a UL Type 1 enclosure suitable for indoor, non-harsh environments; optional 12 or 3R enclosures provide enhanced protection for a range of installation environments. For outdoor exposure or tougher environments, select the 3R option to improve environmental sealing and reduce maintenance. It is designed to preserve performance in demanding production lines.
Key safety features include a door-mounted input disconnect switch that is padlockable in the OFF position, electronic motor overload protection, and a local graphical control panel for quick fault diagnosis. These features support OSHA lockout/tagout, protect motor windings, and minimize downtime by enabling rapid troubleshooting. Warranty and serviceability considerations also simplify field service and spare parts planning.
By integrating drive, disconnect, and control panel in a single enclosure, the ACS580 Packaged Drive reduces panel wiring, speeds commissioning, and lowers installation costs. Its built-in protection and communication options simplify maintenance, extend motor life, and improve uptime on automated lines such as packaging, conveyors, and pumping applications. This translates to faster ROI and lower total cost of ownership over service life.
