This equipment is intended for installation by technically qualified personnel. Failure to install it in compliance with
national and local electrical codes and with motor suppliers recommendations, may result in electrical shock or fire
hazard, unsatisfactory performance, and equipment failure.
Serious or fatal electrical shock may result from failure to connect the motor, control enclosures, metal plumbing, and all
other metal near the motor or cable, to the power supply ground terminal using wire no smaller than motor cable wires. To
reduce risk of electrical shock, disconnect power before working on or around the water system.

    1.1 Mechanical Do not lift pump system by the motor eyebolts or the intake/outlet manifolds. Use lifting straps suitable for the system weight. Straps should be secured around the pump or system base. Use Caution. The booster system must be installed in a well ventilated area without excess dust or moisture. The booster system should be bolted directly to the floor using the supplied base holes.
  • Page 4: Programming Functions

    2. Programming Functions 2.1 Getting Started The Yaskawa iQpump 1000 drive features powerful software combined with an internal PLC to deliver multiple features that are designed help protect the drive, pump, motor, and entire pumping system. While many of these features are factory programmed and set, many features depend on the specific pumping application and may be required to be set during install.

    2.3 Change Pressure Set Point Return to the Home Screen. Press , and Setpoint 1 (Q1-01) should be displayed on screen. Use to scroll to the correct digit and to change the setpoint value. Press to save the value and to return to the home screen.
  • Page 6: Start / Draw Down Level

    2.6 Start / Draw Down Level The start/draw down level is the value at which the system will start the pumps to build pressure. This allows the system to sleep longer and prevent excessive cycling. If (P1-04) is positive, the system will start when the discharge pressure falls below this absolute value (P1-04) and after a delay (P1-05) has elapsed.
  • Page 7: High Discharge Pressure

    2.9 High Discharge Pressure When the discharge feedback signal rises above the high feedback detection level (P1-11) for a specified time (P1-12), the system will respond based on the actions in (P1-13). By default, the drive will fault (P1-13) if the pressure rises above 150 psi (P1-11) for longer than 5 seconds (P1-12). The drive will attempt to restart (L5-41) if the pressure falls below the high feedback level.
  • Page 8: Low Suction Pressure

    2.11 Low Suction Pressure When the suction feedback signal falls below the minimum suction setpoint (Q5-03), the system will respond by slowing down the pump to maintain incoming pressure. If the suction pressure continues to fall below the minimum suction pressure (Q5-04) for a specified time (Q5- 05), the system will respond by going to sleep.
