Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000865093 ABB: The ACQ580-31 ultra-low harmonic (ULH) irrigation wall-mounted drive provides an unprecedented compact design that delivers unity power factor with a 3% or less THiD. By meeting the most stringent requirement of the IEEE519 recommendations, the ACQ580 ULH irrigation drive produces the least amount of harmonic distortion to reduce stress on electrical equipment. The ACQ580-31 irrigation wall-mounted drives are available from 40-150 HP at 460V 3-phase. The drives are available in UL Type 1 (IP21).=20

The irrigation specific software is designed for irrigation applications, enabling easily programmed functions and protections. This innovative programming includes, quick ramps, level control, flow calculations, flow and pressure protection, dry pump protection, soft pipe fill, and others. These drives include fieldbus, I/O modules, and other options available for the ACQ580 irrigation packages.
Feature → Business Impact → Application: Ultra-low harmonic design delivers a unity power factor with THD ≤ 3%, reducing electrical noise and stress on upstream transformers and motors, which translates to fewer motor failures and longer equipment life in large irrigation pumping stations. In practice, this means quieter, more reliable irrigation operations and lower energy charges over the life of the system. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Compact wall-mounted ULH architecture saves valuable panel space in tight pump rooms or greenhouses, enabling easier retrofits and scalable installations for multi-pump irrigation networks. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 460 V three-phase compatibility with a broad 40–150 HP range supports a wide spectrum of irrigation pumps, from small farm systems to municipal water distribution, reducing the need for multiple drive types. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Irrigation-specific software includes quick ramps, level and flow control, flow and pressure protection, dry pump protection, and soft pipe fill, which accelerates commissioning, improves protection, and minimizes water waste. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Fieldbus and I/O module options provide seamless integration with existing control systems, enabling standardized commissioning and future-proofing while reducing wiring complexity. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IEEE 519 compliance and low THD help meet electrical codes and utility requirements, reducing the risk of penalties and facilitating cross-site deployments in regulated environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP21 UL Type 1 enclosure guards electronics from dust and incidental moisture, simplifying installation in outdoor or semi-exposed irrigation sites while maintaining uptime.
