PENTAIR PENTEK
Once the Pentair Pentek Solar Drive controller is wired to the solar source and a motor load, and
the DIP switches settings are configured to match the motor specification, then the Pentair
Pentek Solar Drive is ready for operation.

Startup:
When starting the Pentair Pentek Solar Drive for the first time:
1. While the Pentair Pentek Solar Drive is still de-energized, configure the DIP switches per
the AC motor load of the connected device (see DIP switch details on page 8).
2. After DIP switches are configured, turn ON the toggle switch, and replace the door. Make
sure to never touch toggle switch while connected to solar.
3. Power up the Pentair Pentek Solar Drive from solar PV by switching the solar DC disconnect
to the ON position. All LEDs will light up, and after a few seconds the Pentair Pentek Solar
Drive will try to start the pump, indicated by a blinking green light, and upon starting the
green LED will remain ON.
4. If there is not enough solar power available, the middle LED will blink yellow, indicating
insufficient solar power to start the motor load.
During start-up mode, the Pentair Pentek Solar Drive soft starts a 60Hz motor/pump from a
standstill to 45Hz operation in 1 second, and then the Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT)
algorithm takes over, increasing the motor to 60Hz operation during full sunlight. This optimizes
the motor/pump speed to match available power from the solar PV source. For 50 Hz motors, the
Pentair Pentek Solar Drive soft starts to 40Hz within one second, and then switches to Max Power
Point Tracking (MPPT) control.
