Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Requirements
A VFD must be used to optimize the system to
the best e󰀩ciency point (BEP) of the RO system.
The VFD must be congured to match the motor
nameplate information. The VFD does not come
pre-programed. Please contact the equipment
supplier if the VFD programming manual is not
available. Important note for CE compliant coun-
tries: the VFD must have a line lter which must
be installed in the same metallic enclosure as the
drive.

Motor Requirements
ELECTRICAL HAZARD
Wiring of the motor shall be completed
in conformance with all local electrical
codes. All EU countries must follow EN
60204-1. If a variable frequency drive
(VFD) is provided with the motor, it is
recommended that shielded cables are
used between the VFD and the motor.
The shield must be connected at both
ends.

Motor and Pump Installation Requirements
A rigid mounting surface is required for pump-
motor assemblies in order to prolong the life of
critical components. Mounting surfaces con-
structed of wood or other non-rigid materials are
NOT acceptable as they may deect during pump
operation and cause shaft misalignment. All
anchoring fasteners used should meet or exceed
manufacturers specications. All assemblies must
be mounted on one of three types of substrates:
• concrete foundation.
• optional baseplate.
• container with a suitable steel substructure.
