Product Information
Extended Description
3ABD00048740-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.
Sensorless flow calculation provides accurate hydraulic feedback without external sensors. This reduces sensor maintenance, lowers spare-part inventories, and minimizes downtime, delivering measurable energy efficiency gains in pumping stations and wastewater treatment lines. Application: ideal for municipal water networks and industrial facilities where pipe layout challenges limit sensor deployment. Multipump control coordinates multiple pumps to match demand precisely, minimizing start-stop cycles and peak electrical demand. This reduces energy consumption and mechanical wear, extending pump life and lowering operating costs. Application: shared pumping stations and treatment facilities with variable flow profiles benefit from streamlined sequencing. Level control enables reliable tank and basin management, preventing overfill or dry run. Business impact: safer operations, reduced risk of wastewater spills, and lower maintenance costs. Application: lift stations and treatment basins in municipal networks. Dry run protection and impeller cleaning safeguard pumps during idle or abrasive conditions, lowering repair frequency and unplanned outages. Application: long-running pump systems in harsh effluent environments. Soft pipe fill and quick ramps minimize water hammer and pressure surges, protecting piping and valves while improving system stability. Application: plant networks with sudden demand changes. Hand-Off-Auto control panel, Drive Composer PC tool, and optional Bluetooth control expedite commissioning and field tuning. Business impact: faster deployment, easier troubleshooting, and remote diagnostics. Application: new installations and modernization projects. The integrated energy calculator visualizes savings opportunities, supporting energy-management programs and demonstrating ROI across the system lifetime.

FAQs
ABB ACQ580-01 3ABD00048740-D is designed for wall-mounted installation in water and wastewater pumping setups. It supports IP21 standard enclosures with IP55 option, and integrates with Hand-Off-Auto controls, Drive Composer, and optional Bluetooth for field tuning. Ensure mounting surface supports wall installation and that electrical wiring conforms to local codes. Verify motor rating and pump load align with 55 kW and 106 A specifications for a seamless retrofit.
Sensorless flow calculation derives flow estimates from motor and electrical signals, reducing the need for external sensors. This lowers maintenance and spares part costs while preserving accurate control. In wastewater environments where sensor reliability can be compromised, the feature enhances pump performance, improves energy efficiency, and supports precise dosing and level management without added instrumentation.
The drive carries CE compliance for EU safety and environmental standards, ensuring regulatory alignment for many facilities. It ships with an IP21 standard enclosure, suitable for indoor wall mounting, with IP55 and flange-mount options available for more demanding environments. This combination supports robust protection against dust and water ingress in typical water/ wastewater installations.
The built-in energy calculator visualizes potential savings by analyzing motor load, pump efficiency, and duty cycles. By identifying unnecessary throttling, peak-demand events, and inefficient sequencing, it guides optimization strategies and supports energy-management programs. Over the system lifetime, this leads to lower electricity usage and a favorable total cost of ownership.
The ACQ580-01 supports wall-mounted installation with IP21 protection as standard, and IP55 or flange-mount options for harsher or space-constrained environments. Consider wall clearance, vibration, and nearby heat sources when selecting location. Ensure compatible control interfaces (Hand-Off-Auto, Drive Composer, optional Bluetooth) are accessible for maintenance and remote diagnostics.
