Franklin Duplex Alternator - Use With UT3P, UT2W & SubDrives

Franklin Mono/SubDrive Duplex Alternator

Franklin Electric’s SubDrive Alternator allows a water system to alternate between two parallel pumps controlled by separate SubDrives. The user-selected switching interval balances the run time of each pump system to evenly disperse the workload. The SubDrive Duplex Alternator is ideal for applications requiring redundant systems.

For high demand situations, the Alternator works on a lead-lag principle. When demand exceeds the capacity of one pumping system, the other comes online to supplement production.

SubDrive Alternator provides:

Ability to work with any two FE SubDrives or MonoDrives

Push-button design to select switching interval, 1 - 24 hours or manual

Indicator lights to show time settings, status and faults for each pump

Safe operation using a 120VAC/12VAC outdoor rating and low voltage wiring connection

Fail/safe design (system still produces water if Alternator is taken offline)

Simple installation

Fault detection

Optional alarm contacts

NEMA 4 enclosure protects against:

• Rain, sleet, snow, and external ice
• Splashing or hose-directed water
• Falling dirt or windblown dust
