Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000049036 ABB: The ACQ580-07 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 cabinet-built 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 ready-made standalone cabinet-built ACQ580-07 variant comes in IP21 as standard. Also, IP42 and IP54 units are available.
Built-in pump application features, including sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, level control, soft pipe fill, dry run protection, and impeller cleaning, directly enhance pump performance and reliability. This translates to lower energy consumption, extended pump life, and reduced maintenance cycles in water and wastewater facilities. The cabinet-built design with IP21 standard housing (with IP42/IP54 options) simplifies installation in utility rooms and harsh environments, protecting equipment and reducing enclosure costs. An intuitive Hand-Off-Auto panel, the Drive Composer PC tool, and optional Bluetooth controller speed commissioning and remote tuning, minimizing on-site training and startup time. The embedded energy calculator visualizes potential savings, enabling procurement teams to justify investments with clear ROI metrics. Quick ramps and dry-run protection minimize water hammer and startup shocks, supporting safer, longer-lasting systems. Compatibility with ABB’s control ecosystem and standard fieldbus interfaces ensures seamless integration with existing automation architectures and future scalability for plant-wide optimization.

FAQs
Plan for a dedicated enclosure with IP21 protection as standard, with IP42/IP54 options for harsher environments. Ensure a 400 V or 480 V supply matches the motor rating, provide proper grounding, and allow space for ventilation. Use Drive Composer for commissioning, and leverage the Hand-Off-Auto panel for field operation to minimize on-site wiring errors and shorten installation time.
Sensorless flow calculation estimates process flow without external sensors, enabling dynamic speed adjustments to match demand. This reduces excessive pump speed, lowers energy consumption, and minimizes wear from over-pumping. In multi-pump configurations, it helps balance flow, optimize duty cycles, and extend pump life in wastewater and water treatment applications.
Yes. The ACQ580-07 variant supports multipump control, level control, and soft ramp starts, making it well-suited for duty/standby scenarios in lift stations and treatment plants. Integrated dry-run protection further prevents pump damage during startup or transient faults, while the energy calculator supports ongoing optimization of sequencing and duty cycling.
The drive is CE-marked and UL-listed, with standard IP21 protection and optional IP42/IP54 variants. This combination supports regulatory compliance in most industrial facilities and enables installation in environments with water exposure or dust. Always verify regional certification requirements for specific projects and risk assessments.
Expected ROI comes from measurable energy savings due to sensorless control and efficient ramping, plus reduced maintenance from dry-run protection and robust protection features. The built-in energy calculator aids budgeting and justification, while faster commissioning and easier integration shorten project timelines and lower total cost of ownership across the asset life.
