Product Information

Extended Description

3AXD50000430024 ABB: The ACQ580-31 drives deliver innovative pump features for the water and wastewater industry, securing energy efficient flow of water and wastewater in your pumping solutions. The ultra-low harmonic variant provides ultimate harmonic performance, reaching even less than 3 % THDi, and exceeding the requirements set by low harmonic standards and recommendations. The drive includes an active supply unit and integrated low harmonic line filter, meaning there is no need for external filters, multi-pulse arrangements or special transformers. Other features include output voltage boost and power factor correction. 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 ultra-low harmonic wall-mounted variant comes in IP21 enclosure as standard. Also, IP55 and flange mounting units are available.

FAQs

The drive is designed to be compatible with a wide range of motors and control architectures, featuring sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, and level control that align with common SCADA and PLC setups. It supports integrated commissioning tools like Drive Composer and can be paired with optional Bluetooth panels for quick diagnostics, reducing retrofit risk and enabling seamless upgrades in municipal and industrial pumping stations.
Its ultra-low harmonic architecture achieves THDi below 3%, aided by an integrated low harmonic line filter and an active supply unit. This design minimizes stray harmonics in the power network, improves power quality, and reduces the need for external harmonic mitigation equipment, which is critical for long-term compliance in energy-intensive water treatment plants.
IP21 is standard, suitable for indoor control cabinets and protected environments, while IP55 options provide dust and water ingress protection for harsher sites. When selecting, consider ambient temperature, humidity, and enclosure mounting clearances. The wall-mounted form factor simplifies retrofits and minimizes footprint, with wiring and cable access facilitated by standard terminal layouts.
The drive includes sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, level control, soft pipe fill, and dry run protection. These features enable precise flow management, reduce pump wear, prevent dry running, and enable smooth transitions between pumps, which is essential for reliable operation in wastewater treatment and irrigation systems.
CE marking ensures EU compliance, while the IP21 enclosure (with IP55 option) supports regulatory requirements for equipment in controlled environments. The integrated features reduce installation time and ongoing maintenance costs, while the built-in protection and diagnostic tools shorten mean time to repair and extend pump life, delivering measurable total cost of ownership benefits.
