Part Number: 3AXD50000268900
Quick Summary
ACQ580 drive delivers efficient LV AC motor control for water and wastewater pumping applications. Engineers often struggle with wasted energy, pump wear, and complex configuration when scaling pumping systems. It is CE-certified and supports IP21 standard enclosure, with IP55 and flange-mount options available for harsher environments. The built-in energy calculator visualizes savings while sensorless flow control and pump-application features simplify commissioning. By leveraging seamless integration with Drive Composer and optional Bluetooth panels, utilities gain faster deployment and lower total cost of ownership across municipal networks.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000268900 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 and multipump control deliver precise head- and flow-matching across pumping networks. This reduces energy waste by avoiding over-pumping, lowers wear on centrifugals, and helps extend pump life. The ACQ580-01 is ideal for multi-pump configurations in water utilities and wastewater facilities where consistent performance under varying demand matters. Level control and soft pipe fill help prevent dry running and water hammer during start-up and shut-down. This proactive protection lowers maintenance costs, reduces mechanical stress, and supports compliant operation under fluctuating process conditions. Applications span municipal pumping stations and industrial water systems where reliable operation is non-negotiable. Quick ramps and dry-run protection enable rapid, safe transitions and pump protection during dynamic load changes. Resulting benefits include shorter commissioning cycles, reduced startup shocks, and improved system availability in critical processes. Built-in energy calculator provides visibility into energy savings and supports ROI analyses for pump upgrades. Combined with a sensorless drive, this helps meet energy-efficiency targets and regulatory requirements while delivering a clear business case to stakeholders. Hands-off-auto control, Drive Composer PC tool, and optional Bluetooth control panel simplify installation and ongoing monitoring. Operators benefit from intuitive commissioning, remote diagnostics, and easier SCADA integration, while installers gain faster deployment and consistent configurations across sites. The wall-mounted form factor with IP21 standard enclosure and optional IP55 flange-mount units eases retrofits and new installations.
