If the Pentair Pentek Intellidrive ® Constant Pressure Pump
Controller is used with above ground motors (3-phase only) not
rated for Variable Frequency Intellidrive use, maximize motor
life by limiting lead length to 25 ft. Refer to the pump's owner's
manual, the National Electrical Code, and local codes for proper
wire size.
The output of the Intellidrive is single phase (2-wire or 3-wire)
or 3-phase, depending on motor selection during startup. The
output power terminals (motor wire connections) are located
on the lower right side of the Intellidrive and are labeled R (Red),
Y (Yellow), and B (Black).
To select the wire size, multiply the wire length by 0.95 and then
refer to the pump owner's manual, the Nation Electric Code, and
local codes for proper wire size.
Regardless of owner's manual, wire LENGTH may not
NOTE:
exceed 1000 ft. (305 M).
2-wire 1-phase connect to Y+B, not R+B.
