INSTALLATION PLANNING
Planning Considerations
The planned usage of the overall
system will determine which options
STEP 1
and control methods are
appropriate, as well as how the VFD
should be installed and
Plan System
programmed. Refer to the following
Goals
pages for examples of how the
system might be used.
System options define and automate
features that support the intended
STEP 2
operation. These features may
require specialized control methods
and programming. For more details,
Identify
refer to "Drive Configuration" on
Options
page 23, and "Advanced Application
Options" on page 33.
STEP 3
The SubDrive Connect supports
several methods for automating
pump motor speed control. Refer to
Select
"Drive Configuration" on page 23
Control
for possible control setups.
Methods
The overall function of the system
STEP 4
directly affects where and how the
VFD should be mounted. Refer to
Install VFD
"Physical Installation" on page 14 for
Hardware
guidelines.
The selected motor application,
STEP 5
along with the control method(s),
determines how the VFD should be
Install
connected. Refer to "Electrical
Wiring
Installation" on page 16 for more
information.
The VFD can be quickly and easily
programmed for most standard
operations. Refer to "Drive
STEP 6
Configuration" on page 23. Advanced
features or options may require
additional adjustments to achieve the
Program
desired performance. Refer to
Parameters
"Advanced Application Options" on
page 33 and to "FE Connect Mobile
Application" on page 31.
