INSTALLATION PLANNING
Planning Considerations
Refer to the following table when planning installation of the drive.
1. The planned usage of the overall system will determine which options and control methods are appro-
priate, as well as how the drive should be installed and programmed. Refer to the following pages for
examples of how the system might be used.
2. System options define and automate features that support the intended operation. These features may
require specialized control methods and programming. For more details, refer to “
Drive Configuration”
on page 22, and “Performance Settings” on page 25.
3. The drive supports several methods for automating pump motor speed control. Refer to “
Drive Config-
uration” on page 22 for possible control setups.
4. The overall function of the system directly affects where and how the drive should be mounted. Refer
to “
Physical Installation” on page 14 for guidelines.
5. The selected motor application, along with the control method(s), determines how the drive should be
connected. Refer to “
Electrical Installation” on page 16 for more information.
6. The drive can be quickly and easily programmed for most standard operations. Refer to “
Drive Config-
uration” on page 22. Advanced features or options may require additional adjustments to achieve the
desired performance. Refer to “
Performance Settings” on page 25.
