Connections / Operation
Input Connections (See Figure 5):
The input power terminals are located on the lower left
side and marked L1 and L2 (see Figure 5); there is a
ground lug for the input ground wire to the left of the con-
nector. Feed the wire through the 3/4" conduit hole on the
bottom left side and into the appropriate terminals. If the
wire is large enough to require a larger conduit hole,
remove the 1-1/4" knockout and use the appropriate con-
duit connections.
To determine the correct wire sizes for your installation,
see Table 2, Page 6.
NOTE: The drive only accepts 230V single phase input
power. If your incoming power does not match this, have a
competent electrician alter it to 230V/1Ph before connect-
ing the drive.
Lightning/Surge Protection
Lightning arrestors or other surge suppressing devices can
be used with this product. MOV (Metal Oxide Varistor),
SOV (Silicon Oxide Varistor), or a flashover type can be
used when wired between the drive and the circuit breaker.
If a lightning arrestor is to be used between the drive and
the motor, a flashover type arrestor is recommended.
INITIAL STARTUP
PROGRAMMING
PROCEDURE
Be Sure that the cover is installed before operating the drive.
Most installations will only require the initial startup set-
tings. However, the installer may need to set additional
parameters occasionally. See "Advanced Programming",
Page 9, for information about accessing all parameters,
explanations of their functions, and procedures for chang-
ing parameter values, if necessary.
1. Program the Drive: Apply power to the PENTEK
INTELLIDRIVE. "Setup Guide" will appear.
A. Service Factor Amps (See Sidebar, "Service Factor
Amps")
1. Use DIRECTIONAL Arrows to enter the correct
service factor amps (see Table 4)
2. Press ENTER to save the entry.
B. Application Type:
1. Use DIRECTIONAL Arrows to scroll between
'Above Ground' and 'Submersible'.
2. Press ENTER to save.
C. Connection Type (1-Phase only):
1. Use DIRECTIONAL Arrows to scroll between
'3-wire' and '2-wire'.
2. Press ENTER to save the entry.
D. Current Time:
1. Use DIRECTIONAL Arrows to scroll to correct
time
2. Press ENTER to save the time.
E. Current Date:
1. Use DIRECTIONAL Arrows to scroll to
correct date
2. Press ENTER to save the date.
Service Factor Amps (See Table 4)
To get the best performance out of your pump, be
sure you enter the correct Service Factor Amps
(SF Amps) in the PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE.
• Entering SF Amps higher than the motor rating
lets the drive supply more amps to the motor than
the motor is designed for and may allow the motor
to overheat;
• Entering SF Amps lower than the motor rating lim-
its 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 PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE
is Cap Start/Cap Run amps. This may not match
the motor nameplate, which (for a 3-Wire, Single
Phase motor) will generally be Cap Start/
Induction Run Amps.
• For any 3-Phase or 2-Wire 1 Phase motor, use
the motor nameplate Service Factor Amp rating.
NOTE: PENTEK submersible motors may differ from
motors of the same horsepower from other manufac-
turers. For 3-Wire, 1-Phase 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 amps.
