ABB 3AXD50000417940 Drive - IP21 Enclosure for Water
Part Number: 3AXD50000417940
Quick Summary
ABB 3AXD50000417940 is an LV AC wall-mounted drive for water and wastewater pumping applications. Engineers often face the challenge of delivering reliable pump performance while reducing energy use and maintenance costs in demanding municipal and industrial settings. Key ratings include an IP21 enclosure by default, with IP55 and flange-mount options to fit harsher environments and different installation layouts. The built-in energy calculator and intuitive Hand-Off-Auto control panel help operators optimize operations, while the optional Bluetooth control panel and Drive Composer PC tool streamline setup and diagnostics. In practice, this translates to lower total cost of ownership, improved process stability, and faster project deployment in water and wastewater automation.

FAQs
Mount the drive on a solid, level surface with adequate clearance for cooling and future service. Use the standard IP21 enclosure and ensure proper wiring of 230 V supply and protective earth. For harsher environments, IP55 flange-mount options are available, which may require compatible mounting plates and enclosure adaptations to maintain suitability.
The drive rated at 0.75 kW and 4.7 A operates on 230 V AC. It includes sensorless flow calculation, soft ramping, and dry run protection to safeguard pumps. The energy calculator helps quantify savings, while the Hand-Off-Auto interface aids operator control during routine cycling and maintenance windows.
Yes. The ACQ580-based platform supports multipump control and level control schemes, enabling coordinated operation across several pumps and preventing dry-running. This is especially beneficial in lift stations and treatment facilities where demand varies and reliable sequencing reduces energy waste and wear on equipment.
The standard configuration uses an IP21 enclosure suitable for wall mounting. IP55 and flange mounting options are available for more demanding environments, providing higher protection against dust and water ingress and offering installation flexibility in compact or retrofit spaces.
Expect measurable energy savings from optimized pump control, reduced maintenance due to protective features like dry run protection, and faster commissioning with Drive Composer and optional Bluetooth panel. Overall, this drives down total cost of ownership while improving process reliability and operational visibility.
