PRODUCT INFORMATION

Description

The Franklin Electric MonoDrive Utility is a variable frequency drive (VFD) designed to control and
protect 3-wire, single-phase 230 V motors, enhancing pump performance for residential and light
commercial water system applications. When used with Franklin Electric motors ranging from ½ to
2 HP, the MonoDrive Utility drives a motor and pump at variable speeds to maintain constant water
pressure, even as user demands (water flow) change.
The MonoDrive Utility is designed to convert a conventional pump system to a
variable speed constant pressure system by simply replacing the pressure
switch and control box.
