WATER DRIVES
Built-in pump application software
The built-in pump application software in the ACQ580 drives is designed to enhance the
reliability and durability of the water and wastewater application in which it is used. The
functions protect the pump and secure its optimal functionality, increasing cost efficiency. The
built-in functionalities also support the user in securing the flow of the water and wastewater in
the pump solution.
