ABB 3AUD0000003518 ACS580 - UL Type 1 Packaged Drive
Part Number: 3AUD0000003518
Quick Summary
ACS580 Packaged Drive from ABB provides precise AC motor control for manufacturing and process lines. Engineers often struggle with space constraints, wiring complexity, and integration with control systems. UL (NEMA) Type 1 packaging is standard, with optional 12 or 3R enclosures, a door-mounted control panel, electronic overload protection, and serial communications for easy system integration. By consolidating control and protection in a compact enclosure, ABB helps OEMs and plants reduce installation time, wiring errors, and downtime, while delivering scalable horsepower from 1 to 350 hp.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AUD0000003518 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
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The ACS580 Packaged Drive ships in a UL Type 1 packaged enclosure with a door-mounted control panel and a padlockable input disconnect switch, reducing footprint and enhancing operator safety on crowded factory floors. This consolidation translates to faster installation and easier maintenance for OEMs integrating automated lines and for plants upgrading existing drives in 230/460/575 V networks. Application: OEM equipment and manufacturing lines requiring compact, compliant motor control achieve shorter time-to-production and lower wiring costs. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Electronic motor overload protection provides reliable motor protection and reduces unplanned downtime by catching overload conditions before they cause damage. Application: Heavy machinery and process equipment where motor protection directly translates to fewer service calls and longer equipment life. Feature → Business Impact → Application: A door-mounted control panel with graphical display enables local control and quick commissioning, while external control connections and serial communications simplify integration with PLCs and SCADA. Application: New lines or retrofits needing seamless control system interoperability and scalable remote monitoring. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 1–350 hp capability and 230/460/575 V compatibility support a wide range of motors, enabling a single drive family to cover multiple applications, reducing inventory and training costs. Application: OEMs and maintenance teams deploying versatile drives across machines and lines, with consistent electrical specs and simplified sourcing.

FAQs
The ACS580 Packaged Drive is rated for 230/460/575 V and supports a wide HP range from 1 to 350 hp, allowing seamless replacement or upgrade of existing motors without separate enclosures. Its UL Type 1 packaging and door-mounted control panel simplify mounting in tight spaces, while external control connections and serial communications enable straightforward PLC or SCADA integration.
Key protections include electronic motor overload protection to guard motors against overheating and overcurrent. The drive also features a door-mounted graphical display for local control, plus input disconnect switch options (padlockable OFF) to enhance safety. Serial communications capability supports remote monitoring and integration with automation networks, improving reliability and responsiveness.
Industries with compact footprints and mixed-voltage motor needs benefit most, such as packaging, material handling, and process automation. The 1–350 hp range and 230/460/575 V compatibility suit OEM machines, conveyors, and pumps where space constraints, quick commissioning, and robust protection are priorities.
The ACS580 Packaged Drive is provided in UL (NEMA) Type 1 standard packaging, ensuring a safe, enclosure-compliant installation suitable for indoor electrical rooms and controlled environments. Optional enclosures (12 or 3R) can be selected to meet site-specific protection and layout requirements, simplifying compliance with site wiring practices.
By consolidating drive, protection, and control in a single UL Type 1 enclosure, installation time is reduced, wiring complexity decreases, and downtime is minimized due to integrated overload protection and straightforward local/remote control. The scalable horsepower range and voltage options help standardize parts, reduce inventory, and accelerate maintenance across multiple lines.
