FAQs
The ACQ580-PD fits standard LV motor control panels and includes an integrated disconnect and fuses, simplifying wiring and reducing panel depth. Ensure supply is 460 V with up to 52 A current, mount the unit on a rigid surface, and route motor and sensor cables away from high-noise sources. Use the Drive Composer PC tool for initial configuration and enable Hand-Off-Auto control for safe operation.
Key features include sensorless flow calculation for non-contact flow estimation, multi-pump control for synchronized operation, level control for tank management, dry-run protection to prevent motor damage, soft pipe fill to reduce pressure surges, and quick ramps for smooth startup. Together, these capabilities optimize efficiency, reliability, and process stability in water and wastewater pumping.
Yes. The ACQ580-PD is purpose-built for pumping applications in water and wastewater facilities. Its integrated pump features address common site challenges such as variable demand, head pressure changes, and pump wear. The compact, wall-mounted design with built-in protection makes it suitable for retrofit projects and new installations in municipal and industrial pumping systems.
The drive includes UL-listed electronic motor overload protection, supporting safe operation and electrical compliance in North American installations. Its design also supports CE-ready configurations for international deployments. This combination helps facilities meet regulatory requirements while enabling broader market compatibility and easier cross-border installations.
The built-in energy calculator quantifies potential energy savings by comparing pump performance scenarios, enabling data-driven optimization and justification for retrofit investments.
