ABB 3AXD50000268528 ACQ580-01 - IP21/IP55 rated
Part Number: 3AXD50000268528
Quick Summary
ABB ACQ580-01 LV AC wall-mounted drive optimizes pump performance in water and wastewater systems, delivering precise speed control and energy efficiency. One common pain point is downtime and costly maintenance from dry-run events and inefficient starts, which this drive helps prevent. UL-listed for 100 HP configurations and IP21 enclosures, with IP55 and flange options for harsher environments, it fits diverse sites. Sensorless flow calculation, soft pipe fill, level control, and dry-run protection translate to lower operating costs and longer pump life. An energy calculator shows potential savings in real time, while the Hand-Off-Auto interface, Drive Composer PC tool, and optional Bluetooth panel simplify setup and remote diagnostics. This combination delivers reliable, compliant operation for municipal and industrial pumping applications.

FAQs
Plan for a wall-mounted footprint with the standard IP21 enclosure or the IP55 variant for harsher environments. Ensure 230 V supply and verify UL-listed 100 HP configurations (273 A at 230 V). Consider flange mounting for space-constrained pump rooms and route wiring to minimize heat buildup; the unit supports easy integration with existing motor starters and control panels.
Key features include sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, level control, soft pipe fill, dry run protection, and quick ramps. These enable smoother starts, reduced energy consumption, protection against dry-run damage, and better pump life. The energy calculator helps quantify savings, while Hand-Off-Auto and Drive Composer support efficient operations and troubleshooting.
Yes. The drive is designed for water and wastewater pumping with wall-mount installation, supporting variable-speed control to match demand. Its protections, energy efficiencies, and remote‑diagnostics capabilities align with municipal infrastructure needs, from distribution pumps to treatment plant transfer lines, helping meet reliability and uptime targets.
The unit is UL-listed for 100 HP configurations (ACQ580-01-273A-2) at 230 V and offers IP21 standard enclosures with IP55 variants. These certifications support safety, reliability, and regulatory compliance in typical industrial and municipal environments, while enabling installation in spaces with modest enclosure protection or more demanding outdoor/rough-duty settings.
Expect ROI from reduced energy consumption thanks to precise speed control, lower pump wear due to dry-run protection and soft-start features, and fewer outages thanks to reliable protection. Remote diagnostics via Drive Composer and optional Bluetooth panel further shorten maintenance windows, enabling proactive service and KPI-driven optimization.
