ABB ACH580-01-073A-4 HVAC AC Drive 37 kW 73 A
Description
A 37 kW ACH580-01 for 400 V HVAC motors
Rated 37 kW with 73 A of nominal output current, the ACH580-01-073A-4 belongs to ABB’s ACH580-01 range, the wall-mounted HVAC line with BACnet MS/TP, Modbus RTU and N2 built in. It occupies frame R4. The 37 kW rating completes frame R4 and is used on larger air handlers and chiller pumps. ABB positions the family for fans, pumps and also for basic constant-torque duties such as compressors.
Functions that building automation asks for come with the drive, for example PID controllers for process control, motor flying start, motor preheating and an energy optimiser with kWh counters. Other sizes are listed in AC drives, and the related general-purpose family is on the ABB ACS580 drive page.

Duty ratings of the ACH580-01-073A-4
Match the drive to the motor nameplate current. At 400 V the light-duty figure is 68.4 A (37 kW) and the nominal figure 73 A; the catalogue allows a 110% overload for one minute every ten minutes, roughly 75.2 A (derived from the 110% rule). Under a 480 V supply the table shows 65 A and 50 hp. The ratings are specified at +40 degrees C.
Mounting data for frame R4: the standard IP21 unit is 203 mm wide and 257 mm deep, 636 mm high with the gland box or 636 mm without, and weighs 19 kg. Order the IP55 variant and the body grows to 636 x 203 x 265 mm and 20 kg. With a main switch or C1 filter variant the IP55 body becomes 879 x 206 x 286 mm and 23.3 kg.
Motor pairing from the catalogue: the ACH580-01-073A-4 is listed with 30 kW M3BL200MLA4 at 3000 rpm (68.8 A nominal, motor efficiency 94.5%, package efficiency 92.2%); 30 kW M3BL200MLA4 at 1500 rpm (66.7 A nominal, motor efficiency 94.9%, package efficiency 92.6%) in the IE4 synchronous reluctance (SynRM) selection guide. The efficiency figures are ABB’s calculated drive-plus-motor values and do not promise the same result with a different motor.
Options that change the order
Read ACH580-01-073A-4 in four parts: ACH580 is the series, 01 the wall-mounted construction, 073A the rating and 4 the 380 to 480 V class. Plus codes from the catalogue then add features, for example +L501 for the CMOD-01 relay and 24 V module, +L523 for CMOD-02 with an isolated PTC interface, +L512 for CHDI-01 with 115/230 V inputs and +B056 for IP55.
Add a fieldbus only when the building network needs one: Modbus TCP via FMBT-21 (+K491), PROFINET IO via FPNO-21 (+K492) and EtherNet/IP via FEIP-21 (+K490) are among the choices.
Catalogue data for the family includes an EMC category C2 design for frames R1 to R9, six digital inputs and two analog inputs, two analog outputs and three relay outputs, a 24 V DC auxiliary supply of 250 mA and thermistor inputs for PTC and Pt100, Pt1000, KTY or Ni1000 sensors.

About brand
ABB, formed in 1988 and headquartered in Zurich, covers an unusually long stretch of a plant's equipment list, from the flowmeter and analyzer in the field to the drive, breaker and protection relay in the electrical room.
Seven Star LLC is an independent supplier serving Oman and the GCC. Our ABB listing concentrates on measurement and analytics: ABB flowmeters, liquid analysis sensors and systems, level and pressure instruments. It also includes valve actuators, low voltage circuit breakers, ABB drives, soft starters and protection relays.
ABB product families on this page
Flow measurement includes ABB electromagnetic, Coriolis, vortex and swirl meters, sold under names such as ProcessMaster, AquaMaster, CoriolisMaster and SwirlMaster. Liquid analysis covers pH, conductivity and dissolved oxygen sensors with their transmitters. SensyTemp TSP sensors handle temperature. On the electrical side the listing has ACS355 machinery drives, the ACS550 general purpose drive, the ACQ580 for water and wastewater and the ACS880-01 industrial drive, with fieldbus adapters such as the FPBA-01 for PROFIBUS DP. Protection and switching products include SACE Tmax XT molded case breakers, SACE Emax 2 air circuit breakers, PSR soft starters and the REM615 and RET615 relays.
Where ABB instruments and drives are used
Water and wastewater plants use the electromagnetic flowmeters, analyzers and ACQ580 drives together. Oil and gas, power and chemical plants specify the Coriolis and vortex meters, pressure and level transmitters and the 615 series relays for motor and transformer feeders. The drives run pumps, fans, conveyors and compressors in almost every industry.
Ordering ABB parts: what we need
For drives send the full type code from the rating label, for example ACS355-03E-05A6-4, plus the serial number if it is a replacement. For instruments send the complete order code, measuring span, process connection, wetted materials, output or protocol and the hazardous area approval. For breakers give frame size, rated current, breaking capacity, number of poles, trip unit and fixed or withdrawable version.
