About
ABB Inc. is a global technology leader providing automation, drives, instrumentation, and digital solutions purpose-built for the water and wastewater industry. Their flagship water industry drive is the ACQ580, a variable frequency drive available in multiple configurations — the wall-mounted ACQ580-01 (1–350 HP), the extreme-duty ACQ580-01 Type 4X/IP66 (1–30 HP), the cabinet module ACQ580-04 (400–700 HP), and packaged drive versions ACQ580-PC/PD and ACQ580-0P. The ACQ580 includes built-in water-specific features such as anti-cavitation detection, multi-pump control for up to eight parallel pumps, dry-run protection, pump deragging, soft pipe filling to prevent water hammer, and sensorless flow calculation. On the automation side, ABB offers the AC500 PLC and HMI portfolio with a dedicated water application library, and the ABB Ability Symphony Plus SCADA system for comprehensive plant-wide supervisory control. Their ABB Ability Smart Solution for Wastewater integrates advanced process control, digital twin technology, process simulation, and performance optimization, with documented energy savings up to 25 percent and chemical usage reductions up to 10 percent. ABB also acquired Aurora Motors in December 2024 to expand its vertical pump motor offerings. Notable project references include automating the world's largest membrane bioreactor for PUB Singapore and modernizing water infrastructure for the City of Nashville.
