INITIAL STARTUP, CONTINUED
Run the Pentair Pentek Intellidrive
®
Constant
Pressure Pump Controller in this mode until the well
discharge runs clear, then press the STOP button.
RISK OF EXPLOSION. In Pump Out mode,
pump runs at a constant speed, which can cause very
high pressure if flow is restricted.
Press ENTER again.
4. Verify installation. Make sure that the system has
properly-sized, pressure-relief valve and pressure tank.
Make sure pressure tank’s precharge is correct
(Table 6).
Make sure pump discharge is connected to system.
5. System Start:
Open valves at the ends of lines so that air will escape
during pressurization.
Press Auto Start; close valves at the ends of lines
after all air has escaped.
The system goes into Constant Pressure Operation
as soon as the transducer registers the Dry Run
Sensitivity parameter. Default is 10 PSI.
within 3 minutes, the Intellidrive will stop. Press Auto
Start again to restart line fill. If longer priming or line
fill time is required, adjust Fill Time parameter. See
Table 5.
SERVICE FACTOR AMPS
To maximize pump performance, be sure to enter the correct
Service Factor Amps (SF Amps) in the Intellidrive.
Entering SF Amps higher than the motor rating lets the
Intellidrive supply more amps to the motor than the motor
is designed for and may allow the motor to overheat (see
Table 4).
Entering SF Amps lower than the motor rating limits the
output amps to less than the motor is designed for and will
reduce the performance of the pump.
For any 1-Phase 3-Wire motor, the correct Service Factor
Amp rating for the Intellidrive is Cap Start/Cap Run amps
(see Table 4). This may not match the motor nameplate,
which (for a Single Phase, 3-Wire motor) will generally be
Cap Start/ Induction Run Amps.
For any 3-Phase or 1 Phase, 2-Wire motor, use the motor
Pentek submersible motors may differ from motors of the
same horsepower from other manufacturers.
For 1-Phase, 3-Wire motors from all other submersible
motor manufacturers, enter the motor manufacturer’s
CS/CR service factor amps for your motor.
For 3-Phase or 2-Wire 1-Phase motors, use the motor
nameplate amp value. Also see Retro Fit Applications.

CHANGING A PARAMETER VALUE
This procedure works for ANY parameter.
1.
2.
A shorthand way to remember this is:
Press ENTER to highlight a value
Use arrows to change valve
Press ENTER again to save it
If new value is not saved, any screen change will result in the
loss of the new value.
Table 5 lists all available commands and parameters.
