ABB LV AC drive 3AXD50000268504 - IP21 Enclosure
Part Number: 3AXD50000268504
Quick Summary
LV AC wall-mounted drive is the compact ABB solution for precise pump control in water and wastewater applications. This enables reliable, energy-efficient operation while simplifying system integration. Operators often struggle with inconsistent flow, wasted energy, and difficult commissioning in confined spaces; this drive addresses those by delivering sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, and dry-run protection. With IP21 standard enclosure and optional IP55 or flange mounting, it meets harsh installation requirements while remaining easy to install. The built-in energy calculator helps justify the project economically, and tools like Drive Composer plus an optional Bluetooth control panel streamline commissioning and remote monitoring. Secondary benefits include improved maintenance planning and scalable control for municipal and industrial pump stations.
