ABB ACQ580-01-12A7-4 Water Drive 5.5 kW 12.6 A

Name: ABB ACQ580-01-12A7-4 Water Drive 5.5 kW | Seven Star LLC
Brand: ABB
SKU: ACQ580-01-12A7-4

Description

ACQ580-01-12A7-4: 12.6 A for water and wastewater pumping

With 12.6 A nominal output current and 5.5 kW typical motor power, the ACQ580-01-12A7-4 is one rating of ABB’s ACQ580-01 water drive. It uses frame R1. At 5.5 kW it is the largest R1 rating, a common choice for small submersible and transfer pumps. Pump-specific control is built in, so the drive can run one pump or coordinate several without an external pump controller.

ABB has equipped the ACQ580 with pump-specific control: pump cleaning to clear impeller blockages, sleep boost to cut start-stop cycles, level control for filling or emptying tanks and sensorless flow and head calculation.

Light and heavy duty on 12.6 A

Compare the motor nameplate with 12 A first, since pumps are usually light-duty loads. If the application demands repeated high torque, switch to 9.4 A, giving 4 kW and an overload of about 14.1 A for one minute (derived from 150%). The nominal 12.6 A figure is for continuous loads with no overload, and 15.3 A is available for 2 seconds at start.

Allow for 213 W of losses and 43 m3/h of cooling air. Upstream, ABB lists 25 A fuses (170M1561) for IEC and 15 A JJS-15 for UL installations, and warns that full-speed fan noise can reach 59 dBA.

Dimensions for frame R1: IP21 373 x 125 x 223 mm at 4.6 kg; IP55 403 x 128 x 233 mm at 4.8 kg (heights include the gland box). With a main switch or C1 filter fitted, ABB lists the IP55 body at 403 x 128 x 255 mm and 5.4 kg.

Motor pairing: the catalogue’s SynRM selection guide matches this drive with 5.5 kW M3AL132SMA4 at 3000 rpm (12.1 A nominal, motor efficiency 92.8%, package efficiency 89.6%); 5.5 kW M3AL132SMA4 at 1500 rpm (11.7 A nominal, motor efficiency 93.7%, package efficiency 90.4%). Efficiency numbers describe that combination only and are calculated by ABB.

Options that change the order

The designation breaks into series ACQ580, construction 01, size 12A7 and voltage code 4. Without plus codes the drive is IP21 with the ACH-AP-H panel. ABB’s code list includes +P944 for removing the conduit box (R5-R9), +J429 for the ACH-AP-W Bluetooth panel, +J425 for the ACS-AP-I panel and +J424 for a blank cover instead of a panel.

The basic drive speaks Modbus RTU. Examples of fieldbus options with their MRP codes are Modbus/TCP FMBT-21 (+K491, 3AXD50000049964), PROFINET IO FPNO-21 (+K492, 3AXD50000192779) and DeviceNet FDNA-01 (+K451, ABB code 68469341); they install in the first option slot.

Across the family the catalogue specifies 5 to 95% humidity without condensation, 1% current derating per 100 m above 1000 m up to 4000 m, chemical-gas class C4 for the IP55 drive, control of induction, permanent magnet and synchronous reluctance motors and IE2 efficiency class to IEC 61800-9-2.

About brand

ABB, formed in 1988 and headquartered in Zurich, covers an unusually long stretch of a plant's equipment list, from the flowmeter and analyzer in the field to the drive, breaker and protection relay in the electrical room.

Seven Star LLC is an independent supplier serving Oman and the GCC. Our ABB listing concentrates on measurement and analytics: ABB flowmeters, liquid analysis sensors and systems, level and pressure instruments. It also includes valve actuators, low voltage circuit breakers, ABB drives, soft starters and protection relays.

ABB product families on this page

Flow measurement includes ABB electromagnetic, Coriolis, vortex and swirl meters, sold under names such as ProcessMaster, AquaMaster, CoriolisMaster and SwirlMaster. Liquid analysis covers pH, conductivity and dissolved oxygen sensors with their transmitters. SensyTemp TSP sensors handle temperature. On the electrical side the listing has ACS355 machinery drives, the ACS550 general purpose drive, the ACQ580 for water and wastewater and the ACS880-01 industrial drive, with fieldbus adapters such as the FPBA-01 for PROFIBUS DP. Protection and switching products include SACE Tmax XT molded case breakers, SACE Emax 2 air circuit breakers, PSR soft starters and the REM615 and RET615 relays.

Where ABB instruments and drives are used

Water and wastewater plants use the electromagnetic flowmeters, analyzers and ACQ580 drives together. Oil and gas, power and chemical plants specify the Coriolis and vortex meters, pressure and level transmitters and the 615 series relays for motor and transformer feeders. The drives run pumps, fans, conveyors and compressors in almost every industry.

Ordering ABB parts: what we need

For drives send the full type code from the rating label, for example ACS355-03E-05A6-4, plus the serial number if it is a replacement. For instruments send the complete order code, measuring span, process connection, wetted materials, output or protocol and the hazardous area approval. For breakers give frame size, rated current, breaking capacity, number of poles, trip unit and fixed or withdrawable version.
