FAQs
When planning installation, ensure the cabinet or enclosure can accommodate the UL Type 1 packaged unit and door-mounted control panel. Verify power availability at 230/460/575 V and confirm 1–350 HP motor compatibility. Use the built-in input disconnect with padlockable OFF and route external control connections to your BMS or PLC for seamless integration.
The ACH580 Packaged Drive supports a broad range: 1 to 350 HP across 230, 460, and 575 V supplies. It includes electronic motor overload protection to guard against overcurrent scenarios. This combination enables scalable motor control for HVAC fans, pumps, and blowers while preserving efficiency and motor health in diverse installations.
Yes. The packaged design combines drive, protection, and control in a single enclosure, making it ideal for HVAC fans and pumps in rooftops, air handling units, and variable-air-volume systems. Its local display and external connections simplify commissioning and ongoing adjustments, while the integrated protection helps minimize unscheduled downtime in critical building systems.
This ABB packaged drive is UL-listed with a NEMA Type 1 (and compatible enclosure options) design for safe, room-side installation. The UL listing and enclosure rating provide confidence in electrical safety and durability in typical building environments, supporting compliant installation and predictable performance in HVAC applications.
The integrated motor overload protection and packaged enclosure reduce maintenance labor and parts needs by limiting motor faults and simplifying wiring. A shorter commissioning process and easier integration with building management systems contribute to lower total cost of ownership, improved uptime, and faster realization of energy savings from optimized motor control in HVAC systems.
