FAQs
This cabinet-driven LV AC drive supports 400 V systems with 430 A ratings and IEC PN 250 kW sizing, plus UL-listed 480 V variants (Pld 350 Hp, 414 A). It offers IP21 standard protection with IP42/IP54 options, and is compatible with Drive Composer PC tool, Hand-Off-Auto control, and optional Bluetooth panels for streamlined commissioning and remote diagnostics.
Sensorless flow calculation provides accurate flow estimation without external sensors, reducing installation costs and potential sensor failures. It enables optimized pump control, energy savings, and better surge management, improving process stability in variable demand conditions typical of water and wastewater facilities.
Yes. The ACQ580-07 cabinet drive supports multipump control, enabling coordinated operation of several pumps to meet fluctuating demand. This reduces wear, improves efficiency, and simplifies sequencing in pump stations, while level control and soft-start features further protect equipment during transitions.
The drive is CE-compliant and UL-listed for applicable configurations, with IP ratings including IP21 by default and higher protection levels (IP42/IP54) as options. These certifications support regulatory compliance in municipal and industrial environments and ease integration into certified control architectures.
Benefit from energy savings via the built-in energy calculator, reduced downtime due to dry-run protection, and extended pump life from soft ramping and protective features. The Drive Composer PC tool and optional Bluetooth panel streamline commissioning and diagnostics, delivering faster project realization and lower operating costs over the asset life.
