SubMonitor Submersible
Pump Motor Protection System
Franklin's SubMonitor is an easy to use, programmable protection device
for Franklin Electric three-phase submersible motors.
SubMonitor's features provide advanced protection of submersible motors:
• SubMonitor operates over the full range of three-phase motor
voltages, 200 - 575 volts, 50 and 60 Hz.
• Operates on motors with service factor current rating of 5 amps
through 350 amps - no external current transformers required.
• Protects motors and pumps from overloads, underloads, overvoltage,
undervoltage, unbalanced currents, phase loss*, chattering contacts,
and phase reversal.
• Operates with a Subtrol-equipped submersible motor to provide
motor winding overheat protection.
• Monitors and displays three-phase voltages, three-phase currents,
and pump status.
• When a fault occurs, displays the fault conditions and status.
• Records and displays the history of up to 502 fault trip events, plus
records changes to programmable parameters.
• Records total pump operating time.
• Features a detachable display unit which may be mounted on the
front of a panel for viewing operating status.
• Includes the option of password protection to avoid tampering.
• Easy mounting with DIN rail mounts.
• Totally integrated unit - current transformers are built in.
Simple Programming
SubMonitor has been pre-programmed with default settings for submersible
motors and pumps. Set-up is as simple as setting the motor ratings - voltage,
Hertz, and SF max amps.
Additional programming options can be selected if desired to customize the
features and levels of protection. See page 7 for an overview of the menu
structure and page 12 for a full list of programmable options.
All programming set-up can be made prior to installing at the field site by
connecting 230 volts single-phase between voltage inputs L1, L2 and L3 of
SubMonitor (jumper between L2 and L3) and entering the motor data and
any other options.
* Phase loss is a severe case of current unbalance. Reported unbalance trips are
due to phase loss when current on one of the legs (noted in the data log) is very
small, or when the current unbalance function has been disabled
.
