Single-Phase (3-Wire) Submersible Applications
Note: SubDrives can operate as a MonoDrive.
SubDrive Connect Models with Surface Motor Capacity Ratings
SubDrive Connect models will operate many Franklin Electric surface mounted pumps, including
VR, MH, BT4, and DDS series.
NOTE: Recommended for use on inverter duty rated motors. Follow motor manufacturer recom-
mendations for cable lengths when using variable frequency drives.
When operating a surface system, drives are configured based on motor current capacity rather
than horsepower. Motor current capacity is programmed through DIP switch settings. Refer to
“Surface Motor Overload (Size) and System Response (DIP SW2 & DIP SW3)” on page 27.
Note: Using the FE Connect Mobile App, motor overload current can be set from 2.0 A up to the
max current rating of the drive model in 0.1 A increments. Refer to
“Drive Configuration Using the
FE Connect App” on page 36.
