Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000465477 ABB: The ACQ580-PC drives deliver the ACQ580 Product Series features delivering 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 packaged drive has built-in pump application functionality such as sensorless flow calculation, multi-pump 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, an optional Bluetooth=C2=AE control panel, and a UL-approved electronic motor overload. The built-in energy calculator visualizes the energy savings achieved with the use of the drive.
Sensorless flow calculation enables accurate pump performance without external sensors, reducing wiring complexity and maintenance while boosting process visibility. The drive translates variable frequency control into tangible energy savings, lowering operating costs in circular water and wastewater pumping. In municipal and industrial facilities, this capability supports reliable duty cycling and smoother start‑ups, helping protect motors from sudden loading while meeting performance targets. Combined with the built‑in energy calculator, operators gain a clear view of efficiency gains and return on investment across the plant. Multi-pump control and level management enable coordinated operation across several pumps, reducing simultaneous starts and eliminating overflows. By synchronizing pump duty and sequencing, the drive minimizes wear, lowers electrical peak demand, and extends equipment life in lift stations and treatment plants. Soft pipe fill and dry‑run protection mitigate water hammer and motor damage during startups, while quick ramps shorten acceleration times without compromising system stability. These features translate into smoother plant hydraulics and more predictable maintenance planning. Engineered for quick deployment, the packaged drive fits in existing cabinets with a compact, wall‑mounted footprint and built‑in protection. The intuitive Hand‑Off‑Auto control panel, Drive Composer PC tool, and optional Bluetooth control panel streamline setup, commissioning, and remote diagnostics, reducing field service time. The system ships with UL‑approved motor overload protection and aligns with common industrial standards, delivering repeatable performance in new builds and retrofit projects while maintaining simple maintenance routines and spare‑part availability. Designed to optimize total cost of ownership, the ABB drive features an embedded energy calculator that quantifies savings across operating hours and load profiles, supporting smarter procurement and longer equipment life. Its compatibility with standard IEC motor controls and common fieldbus interfaces simplifies integration with existing SCADA and PLC architectures, helping teams meet regulatory requirements while accelerating project timelines. In short, a compact, intelligent solution that delivers measurable performance gains and predictable ROI for water and wastewater pumping.

FAQs
For site wiring, mount the wall‑mounted packaged drive in a clean, ventilated enclosure rated for industrial use. Feed 460 V AC up to 74.8 A with appropriate circuit protection and a UL-rated motor overload. Use the Hand‑Off‑Auto panel for basic operation and Drive Composer for commissioning. The compact footprint simplifies panel space and reduces cabling during retrofit projects.
Sensorless flow calculation estimates flow and demand without external sensors, enabling accurate speed control and better head loss management. This reduces energy consumption by optimizing pump duty cycles and smoothing transients, which lowers utility bills and wear on bearings and seals. In wastewater plants, it supports stable levels and reliable pump sequencing across multiple units.
Yes. The ACQ580‑series drive includes multi‑pump control and level management, enabling coordinated start/stop, reduced peak demand, and synchronized operation. In wastewater applications, this minimizes overflow risk and hydraulically balances system loads. Additionally, dry‑run protection guards against sudden dry operation, while quick ramps maintain process stability during transitions between pumps and during load changes.
This packaged drive carries UL-listed electronic motor overload protection, a key safety and compliance feature for industrial installations. When deploying in regulated markets, verify regional CE conformity and IP enclosure ratings as part of your site approval. Always consult ABB documentation for the latest certification scope and field service recommendations to ensure ongoing compliance.
Owners typically realize ROI through energy savings from optimized pump control and reduced wear; the embedded energy calculator helps quantify payback, hour by hour. Routine maintenance focuses on enclosure cleanliness, wiring integrity, and motor overload protection settings. Pairing Drive Composer with periodic commissioning checks minimizes downtime and extends asset life in water and wastewater applications.
