California Proposition 65 Warning
This product and related accessories
contain chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive
harm.
Risk of high-voltage electrical shock
from EMI/RFI filter inside drive. Can shock, burn
or kill if the front cover of the PENTEK
INTELLIDRIVE is open or removed while power is
connected to the Drive or the Drive is running. The
front cover of the Drive must be closed during
operation.
• Make all wiring connections, then close and
fasten the cover before turning on power to drive.
• NEVER open the box when power is connected to
Drive.
• Before doing any service or maintenance inside
Drive or when connecting or disconnecting any
wires inside Drive:
1. DISCONNECT power.
2. WAIT 5 minutes for retained voltage
to discharge.
3. Open box.
• Before starting any wiring or inspection
procedures, check for residual voltage with a
voltage tester.
• NEVER connect power wiring to Drive before
mounting the box.
• NEVER handle or service Drive with wet or damp
hands. Always make sure hands are dry before
working on Drive.
• NEVER reach into or change the cooling fan while
power is applied to Drive.
• NEVER touch the printed circuit board when
power is applied to Drive.
Risk of fire. Can cause severe injury,
property damage or death if installed with incorrect
or inadequate circuit breaker protection. To ensure
protection in the event of an internal fault in the
PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE, install the Drive on an
independent branch circuit protected by a circuit
breaker (see Table 2 for circuit-breaker sizing), with
no other appliances on the circuit.
Risk of burns. The Drive can become
hot during normal operation. Allow it to cool for
5 minutes after shut-down and before handling it to
avoid burns.
NOTICE To avoid damage to Drive or problems
with Drive:
• Connect output cables to 3-wire 1-phase and
3-phase submersible motors as follows:
Red to R, Yellow to Y, Black to B.
Any other order will reverse the motor rotation
(3-phase) and may damage the motor.
• Connect output cables to 2-wire 1-phase
submersible motors as follows:
Connect to Y and B only.
Connect Ground to green screw.
• Above ground 3-phase motors may have different
lead colors. Generally connect output leads
as follows:
R to L1, Y to L2, B to L3.
Verify rotation after startup.
• Do not modify equipment.
• Do not use power factor correction capacitors
as they will damage both motor and PENTEK
INTELLIDRIVE.
• Do not remove any parts unless instructed to do
so in Owner's Manual.
• Do not use a magnetic contactor on Drive for
frequent starting/stopping.
• Do not install or operate Drive if it is damaged or
parts are missing.
• Before starting Drive that has been in storage,
always inspect it and test operation.
• Do not carry out a megger (insulation resistance)
test on the control circuit of the Drive.
• Do not allow loose foreign objects which can
conduct electricity (such as screws and metal
fragments) inside Drive box at any time. Do not
allow flammable substances (such as oil) inside
Drive box at any time.
• Ground Drive according to the requirements of
the National Electrical Code Section 250, IEC 536
Class 1, or the Canadian Electrical Code (as
applicable) , and any other codes and ordinances
that apply.
• All installation, service work, and inspections
must be done by qualified electrician.
