SUBDRIVE UTILITY UT3P 3-WIRE 230V 1/2HP TO 2 HP (1 OR 3 PHASE)

Franklin SubDrive Utility UT3P

The Franklin Electric SubDrive Utility UT3P is a variable frequency drive (VFD) designed to control and protect 3-wire, single-phase 230V motors, and 3-phase 230V motors, enhancing pump performance for residential and light commercial water system applications. When used with Franklin Electric motors ranging from 1/2 to 2 HP, the UT3P drives a pump - motor assembly at variable speeds to maintain constant water pressure, even as user demands (water flow) change.

The drive is designed to convert a conventional pump system to a variable speed constant pressure system by simply replacing the pressure switch and control box.

Configuration:

• Compatible with submersible and surface pumps.
• No programming required with easy DIP switch setup.
• Pressure sensor or transducer for water control.
• Works with small pressure tanks or existing larger tanks.

Operation:

• Three LED indicators for system status and troubleshooting.
• 30 Hz - 60 Hz for 3-Phase submersible; 15 Hz - 60 Hz for 3-Phase surface; 30. Hz - 63 Hz for 3-Wire (submersible only).
• Accessory filtering available to remove AM radio frequency interference.

Protection:

• Protection against short circuit, under-load, overload, overheat, under-voltage, over-voltage, surges, open circuit, mis-wired 3-wire motor, and pressure sensor fault.
• Phase imbalance for 3-phase motors.
• Broken-pipe detection.
• User-defined under-load sensitivity.
• Soft-start feature prevents water hammer and increases motor life.

Communication:

• USB port allows for easy firmware updates and easy Fault Log and Event Log downloads.
