Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000039046 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 uses motor parameters to estimate actual flow, enabling precise pump control without extra sensors. This reduces instrumentation costs and minimizes spare parts while tightening system responsiveness. In water and wastewater installations, it translates to steadier flows and lower energy consumption across peak and off-peak periods. Multipump control manages several pumps from a single drive, coordinating start/stop and sequencing to optimize energy use and reduce wear. The business impact is lower electricity bills, simplified maintenance, and faster system restoration after faults. Applications include pumping stations, lift stations, and treatment plants where reliable sequencing is critical. Level control maintains reservoir levels to prevent dry-run and overflow, protecting pumps and stabilizing processes. This feature lowers maintenance costs and extends equipment life while ensuring compliant discharge and consistent delivery in municipal networks. Suitable for basins, tanks, and wastewater storage facilities. Soft pipe fill and quick ramps minimize hydraulic shocks and start-up stresses. The outcome is reduced pipe and valve wear, fewer pressure spikes, and smoother operation during demand changes. Ideal for high-tlow flow scenarios in municipal pumping systems and industrial water handling. Built-in energy calculator provides visibility into energy savings, supporting ROI analysis and continuous improvement programs. Operators can benchmark performance, verify efficiency targets, and justify upgrades or expansions with data-driven evidence. Usability and installation advantages include Hand‑Off‑Auto control, Drive Composer PC tool, and optional Bluetooth control panel for remote diagnostics. These features shorten commissioning time, improve field service efficiency, and enable scalable automation across multiple sites.

FAQs
The ACQ580-01 is designed for wall-mounted installation with an IP21 standard enclosure. Mount it on a clean, vertical surface using the supplied hardware, ensuring proper ventilation and clearance for cooling. The unit supports IP55 options for harsher environments. Connect the 400 V three-phase supply and integrate with the plant’s control system using the Drive Composer or the Hand-Off-Auto panel for initial commissioning.
Key specs include a power rating of 15 kW (Pn) and a nominal current of 32 A at 400 V AC. The drive provides sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, level control, dry run protection, soft pipe fill, quick ramps, and built-in energy calculations. These features support reliable, energy-efficient operation in municipal pumping, lift stations, and wastewater treatment processes.
Sensorless flow calculation improves control without extra sensors, reducing instrumentation costs and energy waste. Dry run protection guards pumps against dry-run damage, while soft pipe fill and quick ramps minimize water hammer and start-up stresses. Energy calculator and multipump control collectively lower energy bills and extend pump life in multi-pump wastewater installations.
The standard is IP21 wall mounting; IP55 and flange mounting units are available as options to suit harsher environments or specific installation codes. This flexibility supports industrial facilities and water treatment plants that require higher ingress protection or alternative mechanical interfaces, while preserving the drive’s core control capabilities, commissioning workflow, and remote diagnostic options.
Expect reduced energy consumption through optimized pump control, longer motor life due to reduced start-stop transients, and lower maintenance costs from dry run protection and fewer instrumentation—plus easier commissioning via Drive Composer and optional Bluetooth. The integrated energy calculator enables tracking of performance improvements and supports justifications for capital projects.
