FAQs
For proper installation, plan wall mounting in a space that accommodates the IP21 enclosure by default, with the option to upgrade to IP55 for harsher environments. Ensure secure mounting, appropriate cable entry points, and accessible wiring to the motor and mains supply. Use the Drive Composer PC tool for initial setup and reference the Hand-Off-Auto panel for operator transitions.
Sensorless flow calculation enables the drive to estimate flow rate without external sensors, allowing tighter speed control and accurate head management. This reduces pump overspeed and throttling events, delivering measurable energy savings, lower thermal stress on bearings, and extended pump life in variable-demand water and wastewater applications.
Yes. The drive supports multipump control, enabling coordinated sequencing and level-based logic. This reduces cycling, minimizes start-stop wear, and improves overall system efficiency in lift stations, sequential pumping, and shared-reservoir applications common to water utilities and treatment facilities.
The drive is UL-listed for compliant performance in North American markets and offers IP21 standard enclosure with optional IP55 for enhanced protection. It also includes protections like dry run prevention to guard against motor damage, helping maintain compliance with reliability standards typical in water/wastewater projects.
Configuration and monitoring are supported by the Drive Composer PC tool for setup, parameter tuning, and diagnostics. Operators can use the Hand-Off-Auto panel for simple local control, and an optional Bluetooth control panel enables remote or field-based adjustments, reducing downtime and accelerating commissioning in new builds or retrofits.
