Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000034630 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 → Improves pump efficiency by estimating flow without external sensors, reducing instrumentation costs and enabling precise control in water and wastewater applications. The business impact is lower energy use and better process stability during variable demand, making it ideal for regional water authorities and industrial effluent systems. Application: multi-pump pumping stations where demand fluctuates and precise head control is required. Multipump control and level management → Enables coordinated operation of several pumps, reducing start/stop cycles and preventing dry running. This translates to longer pump life, lower maintenance, and smoother flow delivery in equalization basins and lift stations. Application: municipal wastewater plants and rising main systems needing synchronized pumping. Soft pipe fill, dry run protection, and quick ramps → Protects pumps from surge pressures, reduces mechanical stress, and minimizes startup wear. The result is fewer unscheduled outages and extended impeller life, beneficial in vertical turbine and submersible pump setups. Application: new builds and retrofits in tight pump rooms with variable speed control. Impeller cleaning and protective features → Maintains hydraulic efficiency by mitigating fouling, contributing to stable head and discharge performance. This is especially valuable for wastewater handling where solids and debris are common. Application: abrasive or solids-containing effluents in municipal and industrial lines. Hand-Off-Auto interface, Drive Composer, and Bluetooth option → Streamlines commissioning, troubleshooting, and remote maintenance, reducing on-site time and enabling quick commissioning. Application: control rooms and field service operations needing rapid parameter adjustments and energy reporting. Energy calculator and analytics → Provides visible energy savings metrics, aiding compliance reporting and lifecycle cost justification. Application: utilities and plant operations teams focused on OPEX optimization. IP21 standard enclosure with IP55 option and flange mounting → Delivers installation flexibility for indoor rooms or semi-outdoor locations and easy retrofits into existing cabinets or wall assemblies. Application: treatment plants, industrial facilities, and retrofit projects requiring adaptable protection levels.

FAQs
Yes. The 3AXD50000034630 is designed to integrate with ABB Drive Composer for configuration, commissioning, and performance monitoring. The device supports standard control schemes and offers a user-friendly HMI (Hand-Off-Auto) to align with existing plant procedures. For retrofit projects, verify cabinet space, mounting options (wall, flange), and wiring to ensure a seamless upgrade path.
Key specs include a power rating of 160 kW (Pn), current around 293 A, and a 400 V supply. It features sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, level control, dry run protection, soft-starts (quick ramps), and a built-in energy calculator. Enclosure is IP21 as standard, with IP55 and flange mounting options available.
Absolutely. The ACQ580-01 based control features are embedded in this family, specifically chosen for water and wastewater pumping scenarios. It delivers reliable pump control, energy efficiency, and protection against dry-run or stall conditions, making it well-suited for lift stations, treatment facilities, and municipal pumping networks.
The drive is CE compliant, providing essential safety and conformity markings for many regions. It also offers IP ratings with IP21 as standard and IP55 option variants, addressing environmental protection requirements in indoor and more demanding installation sites.
Expected ROI comes from energy savings, reduced pump wear, and lower maintenance due to protective features like dry-run protection and soft-starts. The energy calculator and Drive Composer enable ongoing optimization, while remote configuration and monitoring with an optional Bluetooth panel shorten service windows and improve uptime.
