ABB 3AXD50000865185 Drive - ULH irrigation wall-mounted
Part Number: 3AXD50000865185
Quick Summary
ABB ACQ580 ULH irrigation drive delivers compact, precise motor control for irrigation pumps. Engineers often contend with harmonic distortion and fluctuating performance as pumps cycle through varying field conditions. This solution is IEEE 519 compliant with unity power factor and THiD ≤ 3%, and ships in a UL Type 1 (IP21) enclosure with CE marking. By integrating irrigation-specific software, fieldbus I/O options, and robust protections, it enables predictable operation, energy efficiency, and scalable automation for water management and agricultural applications.
Product Information
Extended Description
3AXD50000865185 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
