It addresses a common pain point for engineers: energy waste and inconsistent flow control under varying load. This drive is packaged with robust features to simplify commissioning, including an IP21 enclosure by default, with IP55 and flange mounting options, and CE-compliant regulatory readiness. Its built-in pump applications—sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, level sensing, dry run protection, and soft start—coupled with an intuitive Hand-Off-Auto control panel and Drive Composer PC tool, deliver measurable efficiency gains and reduced maintenance. In practice, operators realize lower energy costs, longer pump life, and faster deployment in field operations.
Product Information
Extended Description
3ABD00048726-D ABB: The ACQ580-01 drives deliver innovative pump features for the water and wastewater industry, securing energy efficient flow of water and wastewater in your pumping solutions. This robust and compact wall-mounted drive has built-in pump application functionality such as sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, level control, soft pipe fill, dry run protection, quick ramps, and a solution for keeping the impeller of the pump clean. Usability is further enhanced with the intuitive Hand-Off-Auto control panel, the PC tool Drive composer and an optional Bluetooth=C2=AE control panel. The built-in energy calculator visualizes the energy savings achieved with the use of the drive. The ACQ580-01 variant comes in an IP21 enclosure as standard and can be installed on the wall. In addition, IP55 and flange mounting units are available.
Feature: Sensorless flow calculation eliminates the need for external flow meters, reducing installation time and maintenance costs. Benefit: Improved pump efficiency and accurate flow control translate to lower energy consumption and cost per cubic meter pumped. Application: Municipal water lift stations and wastewater transfer would see smoother flows and fewer sensor failures. Feature: Multipump control and level control coordinate multiple pumps to match demand, preventing over-pumping and reducing wear. Benefit: Lower lifecycle costs and extended pump service intervals. Application: Reclaimed water systems and priming operations in basin management benefit from coordinated pumping sequences. Feature: Dry run protection preserves motor and pump hardware by detecting dryness early. Benefit: Reduced risk of motor burnout and unplanned downtime. Application: Submersible and dry-pan pump installations in wastewater facilities gain reliability. Feature: Soft ramp and quick ramp capabilities minimize water hammer and mechanical stress. Benefit: Longer pipe life and quieter operation while meeting process ramping requirements. Application: Pump start/stop cycles in hydro-vertical lift stations. Feature: Built-in energy calculator and intuitive Hand-Off-Auto panel with Drive Composer PC tool enable easy commissioning and ongoing optimization. Benefit: Fast rollout, verifiable energy savings, and simplified maintenance planning. Application: Field technicians and control engineers can tune performance without extensive external tools. Feature: Optional IP55 and flange mounting units expand installation flexibility beyond IP21, with wall-mounted convenience retained. Benefit: Easier retrofits and robust enclosure options for harsh environments. Application: Pumps in exposed or outdoor utility sites benefit from enhanced protection and adaptability. Feature: Bluetooth control panel option complements PC-based configuration and remote diagnostics. Benefit: On-site adjustments and diagnostics become faster and safer. Application: OEMs and service teams performing frequent parameter changes during commissioning or expansion projects.

FAQs
Begin with the standard IP21 wall-mounted enclosure and secure the drive to a clean, vibration-free wall surface. Connect power and motor leads per the ABB wiring diagram, then configure basic parameters via the Hand-Off-Auto panel or Drive Composer PC tool. For expanded setups, consider IP55 or flange mounting options to meet environmental requirements. The installation supports sensorless flow control and multipump coordination once wired and commissioned.
Key features include sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, level sensing, dry run protection, soft and quick ramping, and an energy calculator. These capabilities reduce energy consumption, prevent pump damage during startup or dry run, and enable precise process control. Implementing them in water and wastewater pumping reduces downtime, extends motor life, and optimizes overall system efficiency.
The standard enclosure is IP21, ideal for indoor, protected installations. IP55 and flange mounting options are available to enhance protection in harsher environments and enable alternative mounting configurations. Choosing the right rating affects enclosure protection, maintenance intervals, and the suitability of retrofits in outdoor or industrial settings while preserving wall-mount convenience.
The energy calculator models potential energy savings by adjusting pump speed and sequencing based on demand. It provides actionable insights during commissioning and ongoing operation, enabling operators to quantify kilowatt-hour reductions, justify renewal or expansion projects, and optimize running costs for water utilities and wastewater facilities.
Yes. The combination of reduced energy use, extended pump life through protective features, and faster commissioning translates to measurable ROI. The drive’s compact, wall-mounted form factor, optional IP55 protection, and compatibility with control panels and PC tooling streamline deployments across municipal and industrial pumping applications, delivering cost savings over the equipment’s life cycle.
