PRODUCT INFORMATION
Description
The Franklin Electric SubDrive Connect Plus family includes variable frequency
drives (VFD) designed to control and protect three-phase motors up to 30 hp.
These drives provide enhanced pump performance for commercial, agricultural,
and irrigation water system applications in a small, self-contained NEMA 3R pack-
age. Many advanced features are included that are typically available only in large,
panel-based, general-purpose industrial drives.
The SubDrive Connect Plus adjusts motor and pump speeds to maintain constant
water pressure, even as user demands (water flow) change. Additional pumping
application features include broken pipe protection, pipe fill mode, and multidrive/
multi pump capabilities.
Setup is fast and easy, using simple DIP switches and an LCD menu with push but-
tons—no complicated programming is required. The drive can also be configured
and monitored using Bluetooth and the SubDrive Connect Plus mobile app.
The SubDrive Connect Plus series is designed to operate three-phase motors with
three-phase incoming power. 230 VAC models also provide the capability to oper-
ate a three-phase motor with single-phase incoming power.
