Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000465699 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.
The LV AC packaged drive is designed for space-efficient control, integrating a built-in circuit breaker and fuse to minimize panel footprint and wiring. This reduces installation costs while delivering reliable protection and easy maintenance in metal or concrete environments common in water and wastewater facilities. Sensorless flow calculation enables accurate pump performance tracking without expensive external sensors, enabling optimized energy use and smoother process control in multi-pump configurations. Multi-pump control coordinates operation across multiple pumps, lowering peak current and extending pump life by preventing chatter and short-cycling. Level control and dry-run protection safeguard pumps from running dry, reducing mechanical wear and preventing system downtime in variable-flow environments. Soft pipe fill and quick ramps minimize pressure surges during startup, protecting piping and valves and enabling gentler transitions in critical processes. The energy calculator visualizes savings opportunities, supporting continuous improvement programs and regulatory reporting. Compatibility with Hand-Off-Auto operation, Drive Composer configuration, and an optional Bluetooth control panel accelerates commissioning, troubleshooting, and remote tuning, delivering faster time-to-value for water and wastewater projects. Industry-specific insights show that compact, integrated drives shorten installation timelines by eliminating separate protection equipment and simplifying wiring, while the built-in pump features address common failure modes seen in municipal and industrial pumping stations.

FAQs
Yes. The 3AXD50000465699 is a wall-mountable LV AC packaged drive designed to integrate with ABB motor systems and common control panels. It includes a built-in circuit breaker and fuse, which simplifies enclosure wiring and reduces panel footprint, while remaining compatible with ABB’s drive ecosystem and configuration tools such as Drive Composer for seamless deployment.
The drive provides sensorless flow calculation to monitor pump performance without external sensors, enabling precise control and energy optimization. Dry-run protection guards against motor damage when flow is interrupted, while multi-pump control coordinates several pumps to optimize timing and sequencing. Together, these features improve reliability, reduce maintenance, and lower energy consumption in pump systems.
Absolutely. The ACQ580-based packaged drive is tailored for water and wastewater pumping with features like level control, multi-pump coordination, and quick ramping suitable for fluctuating flow demands. Its compact, wall-mounted form factor and integrated protection align with the space constraints and reliability requirements typical of municipal pumping stations.
The drive includes UL-listed electronics, with options and configurations commonly supporting CE-marking and rugged IP-rated enclosures. For field installation, follow local electrical codes, ensure proper enclosure selection, and use Drive Composer for safe, compliant configuration. When in doubt, verify the exact certification package with your ABB distributor for your region and application.
Maintenance is minimized by integrated protection, sensorless sensing, and diagnostic capabilities, with software updates via Drive Composer. ROI comes from demonstrable energy savings through optimized pump operation, reduced downtime from dry-run protection, and longer motor life due to softer startups. Energy monitoring and reporting capabilities also support budgeting and compliance documentation.
