Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000466276 ABB: The ACQ580-PD 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.
Built-in disconnect and fuses combined with a compact wall-mounted package simplify installation while delivering safe, code-compliant protection. The integrated protection reduces panel size, minimizes field wiring, and cuts installation time in mechanical rooms or confined plant spaces. By consolidating drive electronics, motor overload protection, and fusing into a single enclosure, technicians spend less time planning wiring diagrams and more time commissioning. This is particularly advantageous for 30 HP pumping applications in water and wastewater facilities where space is limited and reliability is non-negotiable. Sensorless flow calculation, multi-pump control, and level control enable precise pump regulation and real-time energy optimization. Operators see reduced energy consumption and smoother process transitions, which translates to lower utility bills and reduced mechanical wear. In applications with multiple pumps or variable water levels, the drive coordinates sequencing and staging to prevent simultaneous starts and protect critical infrastructure while maintaining target flow. Dry-run protection, soft pipe fill, and quick ramps guard pumps during startup and operation, mitigating cavitation, dry-run failures, and hydraulic shocks. The protective features extend impeller life, limit unplanned downtime, and simplify warranty compliance. This is especially valuable in wastewater lift stations, raw water intakes, and process lines where startup surges or empty pipe scenarios are common, delivering safer, more predictable operation. Hand-Off-Auto control, Drive Composer configuration, and optional Bluetooth panels streamline commissioning, diagnostics, and maintenance tasks. Engineers benefit from fast parameter setup, easier upgrades, and remote monitoring capabilities in distributed plants. The PC tool supports commissioning workflows, while the Hand-Off-Auto interface provides reliable control handover for operators, reducing training time and operator errors. This leads to faster deployment, improved uptime, and lower lifecycle costs across plant automation projects. Built-in energy calculator visualizes potential savings and supports ROI analyses, turning pump efficiency into a tangible business case. With a UL-listed electronic motor overload and robust protection, the drive can be trusted in demanding environments, while 460 V, 44 A, and 30 HP compatibility ensures straightforward integration with existing electrical infrastructure. The result is lower total cost of ownership, regulatory compliance support, and measurable energy-performance gains in water and wastewater applications.
