The ACQ580 is the latest addition to the ABB drives portfolio. This robust, compact and energy efficient drive is designed for securing the flow of water and wastewater in your pumping system.

 

Secure the flow 

The ACQ580 variable frequency drive (VFD) delivers innovative pumping features for the water and wastewater industry. Primary Setting menu and assistants simplifies commissioning, setup and daily control. Embedded water and wastewater application features create an intuitive environment for users and dedicated pumping features enhance the performance of the pumping system.

 

Speak the language

Leveraging clear, water industry terminology, the control panel enables operators to efficiently interface with the drives in terms they use every day. The optional Bluetooth control panel allows for wireless commissioning and monitoring.

 

Feel the Power

ACQ580 drives are designed for customers who value reliability, high quality, and robustness. With embedded pump functionality, the ACQ580 keeps the pump system operating optimally and efficiently. Product features, such as coated boards and optional compact UL Type 12 enclosures, make the ACQ580 suitable for harsh conditions. 

 

All ACQ580 drives are current rated devices. The HP ratings provided are for reference only and are based on typical 4-pole motors at nominal voltages (NEC Table 430.250). If full motor torque is required, ensure the drive has a continuous current rating equal to, or greater than the full load amp rating of the motor.

 

The ACQ580 is available in both normal and heavy-duty ratings. Normal duty ratings provide a 110% short term overload rating for one minute every ten minutes. Heavy duty ratings provide a 150% short term overload rating for one minute every ten minutes. All ACQ580 drives and their protective functions are thoroughly tested for optimal performance.
