I/O Connections
The I/O terminals are located in the center of the wiring
compartment, to the left of the transducer terminals. The
Relay Output terminal is marked O1. The Relay Output
terminal powers an external device (warning light, etc.).
The External Input terminal is marked I1. The External
Input terminal allows the Drive's operation to be coordi-
nated with or limited by an external device (float switch,
etc.). Each can be programmed for use with certain exter-
nal devices; see "6) I/O (Two Submenus)," Page 11, the
Parameters section (Page 9) for further information.
Two 1/2" conduit knockouts are provided on the bottom of
the drive enclosure for the I/O wires.
External Input Rating:
The unique design of the PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE allows
this input to be 24V DC or 24-230V AC. Power can be
supplied (24VDC) from terminals V+ and V– to the right of
I/O terminal I1. See Figures 6 and 7.

supply (can also be an A.C. source).
NOTE: The external input and output relay can accept 24VDC. It also accepts AC voltage up to 230 volts.
Output Relay Rating:
The unique design of the PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE allows
this output to be 24V DC or 24-230V AC. Power can be
supplied (24VDC) from terminals V+ and V– to the right of
I/O terminal I1. See Figures 8 and 9. The Output Relay is
rated at 5A @ 30VDC or 8A @ 230VAC.
Note: To connect the wires to either terminal:
1. Strip the wires back about 1/2".
2. Push the spring terminals up (back).
3. Insert the wires.
4. Release the spring terminals.
The 24VDC supply terminals (V+ and V–) are rated for
20ma output.
