Part Number: 3AXD50000418169
Quick Summary
LV AC wall-mounted drive for water and wastewater applications delivers precise pump control and energy-efficient operation across municipal and industrial pumping stations. Engineers often struggle with energy waste, pump cavitation, and unplanned downtime due to outdated or manual control strategies. With built-in features such as sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, and dry-run protection, the ABB drive helps protect pumps and reduce operating costs. This variant ships with an IP21 enclosure as standard and offers IP55 or flange mounting options for challenging environments, backed by CE compliance. Coupled with the intuitive Hand-Off-Auto panel, Drive Composer PC tool, and optional Bluetooth control, it speeds commissioning and supports ongoing optimization in water and wastewater networks.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000418169 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 optimize flow and energy use. This reduces instrumentation costs and prevents unnecessary pump starts and stops, which translates to lower maintenance and operating expenses in municipal water and wastewater stations. Level control, soft pipe fill, and dry-run protection further minimize surge events and pump wear, delivering longer equipment life and more reliable process control in varying demand scenarios. The built-in energy calculator visualizes potential savings across operating profiles, supporting ROI demonstrations and regulatory compliance in utilities and industrial facilities. The Hand-Off-Auto control panel, Drive Composer PC tool, and optional Bluetooth panel simplify commissioning, remote diagnostics, and ongoing optimization, reducing downtime during maintenance and upgrades. The compact wall-mounted design with IP21 standard and IP55 option eases installation in restricted plant spaces and supports scalable system expansion, aligning with ABB’s drive family for consistent wiring and software compatibility.

FAQs
Begin with confirming the IP21 enclosure suitability and wall-mount mounting location. Connect power and motor leads per the user manual, bond the earth, and verify protective earth continuity. Use Drive Composer for configuration and the Hand-Off-Auto panel for on-site control; enable dry-run protection and sensorless flow settings to optimize pump sequencing. Ensure proper ventilation and secure enclosure mounting to maintain reliability in wastewater environments.
Pn 11 kW rated power, 46.7 A current, and 230 V AC supply are the primary electrical specs. The unit ships in an IP21 standard enclosure with wall-mounting capability and offers IP55 options. It includes advanced pump features like sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, level control, soft ramping, and dry-run protection for robust water and wastewater applications.
Yes. The drive supports multipump control, enabling coordinated operation of two or more pumps to match demand, reduce cycling, and optimize energy use. This capability minimizes wear from frequent starts/stops and improves process stability in variable-demand wastewater or water supply systems.
Key energy-saving features include sensorless flow calculation to optimize pump speed without external sensors, a built-in energy calculator to visualize savings, and soft ramping to reduce inrush currents. Together with efficient pump sequencing, these features help lower electricity consumption and extend pump life in continuous-operation water and wastewater networks.
The standard installation uses an IP21 enclosure for wall mounting. For harsher environments or space constraints, IP55 variants and flange mounting units are available. These options provide installation flexibility in plants with limited space or elevated dust, moisture, or chemical exposure, while maintaining easy access for maintenance and diagnostics.
