FAQs
For retrofit projects, the wall-mounted design simplifies space planning and reduces enclosure footprint. The standard IP21 enclosure supports indoor applications, while IP55 variants and flange-mount options broaden suitability for harsher environments. Verify mains supply (voltage class near 400 V AC for a 75 kW rating), available space for the Hand-Off-Auto panel, and necessary cables for motor, sensor, and communication interfaces to ensure seamless integration with existing PLCs or SCADA systems.
Sensorless flow calculation estimates flow using motor and process data, eliminating external flow meters where appropriate and reducing capital costs. Multipump control coordinates parallel pumps to match demand, avoiding overshoot and minimizing energy consumption. Together, these features enhance pump efficiency, improve process stability, and reduce energy bills in municipal pumping stations and wastewater transfer lines.
Yes. The ACQ580-01 family includes multipump control and level control functionalities, enabling coordinated operation across multiple pumps and automatic level-based sequencing. This is ideal for lifting stations, reservoir feed systems, and treatment plant processes where precise level management and coordinated pump action improve reliability, reduce cycling, and optimize energy use.
Project specifications should confirm IP rating requirements for the installation environment; IP21 is standard while IP55 options exist for harsher conditions. CE conformity is commonly expected for global markets, ensuring electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility. Verify any regional regulatory requirements and ensure OEM documentation aligns with site QA standards and commissioning procedures.
ROI is driven by energy savings from optimized pump operation, reduced mechanical stress via soft-start and quick ramp features, and lower maintenance due to dry-run protection. The built-in energy calculator provides a transparent basis for savings calculations, while intuitive tools shorten commissioning and enable proactive maintenance planning, delivering faster payback in systems with variable demand and large pump fleets.
