Managing ON/OFF switching activity
Your submersible electric motor accumulates a
certain amount of heat each time it is switched on. It
must run for a period of time during which it has the
opportunity to dissipate the heat. If too many starting
cycles are called for your motor and/or pump may
be damaged. Observe the starting conditions of the
motor/pump. The SubTronic3P

the Trouble Shooting Section in this manual to rectify
the problem or contact your authorized installer or

controller will wait circa 5 minutes before attempting
to restart the pump. If the system would then run for
less than 3 minutes and an Underload fault recurs,
the controller will wait approx. 10 minutes before at-
tempting to restart the pump. This schedule allows for
the minimum off-time possible based on the recovery
time of the well. See page 5: Figure 1
