Product Information
Extended Description
3AUA0000219791 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 IP21 enclosure as standard and can be installed on the wall. Also, IP55 and flange mounting units are available.
Sensorless flow calculation leverages motor data to estimate flow without bulky meter hardware. This reduces upfront sensor costs and lowers maintenance while delivering accurate regulation of pump speed to match demand. In municipal water systems and wastewater facilities, the result is steadier head pressure, fewer flow surges, and more predictable energy use. Multipump control coordinates several pumps for optimal sequencing, reducing peak energy demand and extending pump life by minimizing unnecessary starts. Level control ensures pumps respond to tank levels, while soft pipe fill minimizes water hammer and pressure spikes, protecting piping and valves. Dry run protection guards against pump damage when supply is interrupted or levels drop, improving downtime resilience. Quick ramps limit acceleration to reduce mechanical stress, and impeller cleaning helps prevent buildup that reduces efficiency. Hand-Off-Auto enables simple operator shifts, Drive Composer PC tool streamlines commissioning, and a Bluetooth control panel supports field updates. The built-in energy calculator visualizes savings, and IP21 enclosures with IP55 options support diverse installation environments.

FAQs
When installing, place on a stable wall, ensure adequate clearance for cooling, and wire to 460 V three-phase supply. Use the IP21 enclosure as standard; for harsher environments select IP55 or flange mounting. Confirm UL listing and CE compliance in documentation. Use Hand-Off-Auto control for routine operation and Drive Composer for commissioning; ensure protective devices and wiring follow local codes.
Sensorless flow calculation estimates flow by analyzing motor current and speed, eliminating bulky meters and simplifying installation. It improves efficiency by enabling precise speed control and dynamic pump matching to demand, reducing throttling losses and energy waste. This is particularly beneficial in variable-demand water and wastewater networks, where demand can swing rapidly.
Yes. The ACQ580-01 supports multipump control, enabling coordinated start-stop sequences and optimal pump sequencing. This reduces peak electrical demand, minimizes wear from frequent starts, and provides redundancy for critical wastewater stations. Coupled with Drive Composer, engineers can program automatic pump transfer and back-up logic for reliable operation.
This drive is CE compliant and UL-listed for North American markets. It offers IP21 standard protection with optional IP55 for harsher environments and flange-mount configurations. Compliance with these certifications helps ensure safe operation in municipal facilities and alignment with installation codes and quality standards.
The drive delivers ROI through measurable energy savings from precise speed control and reduced throttling, plus lower maintenance costs due to dry run protection and fewer sensor requirements. Quick ramps and impeller-cleaning features reduce mechanical wear, extending pump life and reducing downtime in water and wastewater plants.
