Description 5
Transducer
The PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE uses a 4-20mA,
0-100PSI pressure transducer to control motor
speed (Drive settings may be changed to use a
max 300 PSI transducer).
The transducer (see Figure 1) senses pressure in
the pipe and converts it to an electrical signal.
The Drive senses and processes the signal in the
PID (Proportional, Integration, Derivative) control.
When operating in AUTOSTART mode, the Drive
increases and decreases the speed of the pump
motor as needed to maintain constant pressure in
the piping system.
Changes internal pressure setpoint from
15 PSI to transducer max -3PSI
Runs the Drive (with no pressure control)

Installation 8
Wiring
To allow for ease of wiring, the enclosure wiring
area is free of electronics other than the terminals.
Conduit holes and knockouts are located so
that the wire can be fed straight through to the
connectors, with minimal bending. The terminals
accept 6-14 AWG wire.
Installations that require larger wire gauge than
6AWG will require an external junction box. Run
6AWG wire from the Drive into the junction box,
then make external connections with wire nuts to
appropriately sized wire.
NOTICE For convenience in wiring, the input and
motor terminals unplug from the box. Pull them down
to remove them for ease of access, as shown in Figure
8.
Verify that the terminal connectors are completely
seated when you replace them. It is best practice
Figure 8 - Pull input and motor terminals down to
remove, making wiring easier.
to connect all output wires (larger wire gauge) first,
then all input wires.
Pump Connections
If the PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE is used with above
ground motors (3-phase only) not rated for Variable
Frequency Drive use, maximize motor life by
limiting lead length to 25 ft. Refer to the pump
owner’s manual, the National Electrical Code, and
local codes for proper wire size.
The output of the Drive 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 Drive 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.
NOTICE: Regardless of owner’s manual, wire
LENGTH may not exceed 1000 ft. (305 M).
NOTICE: 2-wire 1-phase connect to Y+B, not R+B.
Feed the motor cable through the 3/4” conduit hole
on the bottom right side and into the appropriate
terminals. If the wire is large enough to require a
larger conduit hole, remove the 1-1/4” knockout and
use the appropriate conduit connections. Attach the
motor ground wire to the grounding screw, located
on the grounding bar. Attach the motor power wires
to the terminals as shown in Figure 9.
NOTICE Drive does not sense motor temperature
and will not protect motor from over heating.

Pressure Tank Recommendations
Minimum tank size is two gallons. Use a precharged pressure tank with Drive, as shown in
Table3. The tank size must equal at least 20
percent of the pump’s rated flow in gallons per
minute (GPM), but cannot be less than two gallons
capacity. For example, a pump rated at 7GPM
would require a tank of two gallons capacity or
larger. A pump rated at 50 GPM would require a 10
gallon tank or larger. Tanks larger than 10gallons
can be used, but may require adjustment of Wake Delayparameter.
2. Push spring terminal up with finger or slotted
screwdriver
3. Insert wires from bottom
4. Release spring terminal
Input Power Connections
The input power terminals are located on the
lower left side and are marked L1 and L2 (see
Figure 9). There is a ground screw for the input
ground wire to the right of the connector (torque
to 10 inch lbs). Feed wire through the 3/4” conduit
hole on the bottom left side and into appropriate
terminals. If wire is large enough to require a larger
conduit hole, remove the 1-1/4” knockout and use
appropriate conduitconnections.
To determine the correct wire sizes for installation,
see Table 2.
NOTICE The PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE only accepts
230V single phase input power. If incoming power
does not match this, have a qualified electrician
alter supply voltage to 230V/1Ph before connecting
it to the Drive.
NOTICE Set pressure tank’s pre-charge to 70
percent of the system operating pressure. When
using an external set point as well as an internal
set point, pre-charge tank to 70 percent of the
lower setpoint of the two. Some applications may
require a different percentage when determining
the setpoint.
Transducer Connections
A 0-100 PSI 4-20 mA transducer is provided with
Drive. Install the transducer downstream of tank,
as shown in Figure 1. Install transducer in a tee
in a straight section of pipe with at least 1 foot of
straight pipe on each side of the tee (i.e., all fittings
must be at least 1 foot away from transducer).
Feed transducer cable through the open 1/2”
conduit hole on bottom of the Drive enclosure.
As shown in Figure 9, connect the red wire of the
transducer cable to AI+, connect black wire to AI–,
and connect the cable shield to the metal cable
shield screw.

Initial Startup and
Programming Procedures
Ensure that the cover is installed before operating
the
PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE.
Most installations will only require the initial
startup settings. However, the installer may need
to set additional parameters. Information about
accessing all parameters, explanations of their
functions, and procedures for changing parameter
values, will be found later in this section.
3. Pump out well (if necessary): Direct pump’s discharge to appropriate location
not connected to system and press Pump Out.
The pump will run at 45 Hz.
Adjust frequency as appropriate:
A. Press ENTER
B. Change frequency value
NOTICE Above ground pumps should run at 60
Hz for this step (until pump is primed). Then
adjust frequency as necessary.
C. Press ENTER again.
Run the Drive in this mode until the well
discharge runs clear, then press STOP button to
stop Drive.
Risk of explosion. In Pump Out
mode, pump runs at a constant speed, which
can cause very high pressure if flow is restricted.
4. Verify installation: Make sure that the system
has properly-sized, pressure-relief valve and
pressure tank.
Make sure pressure tank’s precharge is correct.
See Table 6.
Make sure pump discharge is connected to
system.
Service Factor Amps
To maximize pump performance, be sure to
enter the correct Service Factor Amps (SF Amps)
in the
PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE
• Entering SF Amps higher than the motor rating
lets the Drive supply more amps to the motor
than the motor is designed for and may allow
the motor to overheat (see Table 4).
• Entering SF Amps lower than the motor rating
limits the output amps to less than the motor is
designed for and will reduce the performance
of the pump.
• For any 1-Phase 3-Wire motor, the correct
Service Factor Amp rating for the Drive is Cap
Start/Cap Run amps (see Table 4). This may
not match the motor nameplate, which (for a
Single Phase, 3-Wire motor) will generally be
Cap Start/ Induction Run Amps.
• For any 3-Phase or 1 Phase, 2-Wire motor, use
the motor nameplate Service Factor Amprating.
NOTICE
differ from motors of the same horsepower
from other manufacturers. For 1-Phase, 3-Wire
motors from all other submersible motor
manufacturers, enter the motor manufacturer’s
CS/CR service factor amps for your motor.
For 3-Phase or 2-Wire 1-Phase motors, use the
motor nameplate amp value. Also see Retro Fit Applications. (Table 7)

60 Hz to 80 Hz Operation
When installing the PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE with
a motor and liquid end of the same HP rating,
operate it at 60 Hz (the default value). The Drive
can be operated at frequencies of up to 80 Hz
when the installation uses a 3-phase motor 2 times
the size of the pump. For example, a 1 HP pump
with a 2 HP 3-phase motor. This combination
will equal the performance of a conventional
2HPpump.
Press Main Menu and
shown in Figure11
follow the keypress sequence
. Be sure to press ENTER to save
the new Max Frequency selected. The Drive will
now use the new value selected.
NOTICE The Drive will not allow the output amps
to go above the Service Factor Amps selected on
the keypad. Because of this, some 80 Hz operations
may be limited. This protects the motor and may be
a commonoccurrence in a 80Hz operation.

Description
Enables or disables Excessive Runtime
Detection.
Number of hours Drive can run before it
faults on Excessive Runtime.
Time Drive waits to restart pump when
Dry Run is detected.
Number of tries Drive attempts to restart
pump when Dry Run condition is
detected.
Time the Drive takes to recognize Dry Run condition.
Pressure value that Dry Run condition
is detected at. Dry Run fault will occur
if this pressure cannot be met within
Detection Time window. Lower pressure
= less sensitivity.
Time allowed to fill (prime) pipes during
Auto Line Fill process. Relates to Dry Run Sensitivity value. (Time starts after 55 Hz
is reached).
Selects operation of Drive when terminal
I1 or I2 is used. Select between Unused,
Run Enabled, Ext Fault, and Setpoint. The
Drive will respond to selected command
when voltage is present at I1 or I2
terminal.
Selects the operation of Drive when
terminal O1 is used. Select between
Unused, Run, and Fault. The Drive closes
the Relay when Run or Fault is selected.
Sets Over Pressure Warning value.
Change if higher than 80 PSI system
pressure is needed.
Selects whether Ground Detection
parameter is Enabled or Disabled. If
Disabled is selected, it will revert back to
Enabled after 72 hours. Warning LED will
flash entire time it is Disabled.
Resets all parameters to factory defaults.

4. The I/O terminals are located in the center of
the wiring compartment, as shown previously
in Figure9.
The Digital Input connections (I1 and I2) are used to
control the Drive based on the state of an external
device, such as a flow switch, moisture sensor,
alternator, or other device. Programming is needed
to activate any of these functions (see Table 5).
The Output Relay (O1) is used to control an external
device based on two states of Drive; either Running
the pump or Faulted. Programming is needed to
activate any of these functions (see Table 5).
Cable Installation
Three 1/2” conduit knockouts are provided on the
bottom of the Drive enclosure for the I/O wires.
Break out the closest 1/2” knockout and route the
wires through. Use a cord grip to prevent the wire
from rubbing and causing a short.
NOTICE Never run low voltage I/O wire through
the same conduit hole as the 230V input wires or
motor wires.
To connect the external wires to the terminals:
1. Strip wire ½ inch
2. Push spring terminal up with finger or slotted
screwdriver
3. Insert wires from bottom
4. Release spring terminal
Connection Examples
Figures 15-18 show various connection schemes
for typical applications. Table 6 describes each I/O
terminal, including purpose and rating.

RS-485 Communications
RS-485 is a US-based telecommunications
standard for binary serial communications between
devices. It is the protocol, or set of specifications,
that needs to be followed to allow devices that
implement the standard to speak to each other.
A fully compliant RS-485 port is included in the
PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE system to permit serial
connections among more than two devices on an
RS-485 compliant network. Figure 19 shows twowire connection to the Drive.

Lightning/Surge Protection
Lightning arrestors or other surge suppressing
devices can be used with this product. MOV(Metal
Oxide Varistor), SOV(Silicon Oxide Varistor).
When retrofitting an installation with the
PENTEK INTELLIDRIVE, most of the preceding
text can be applied. As a convenience, the
recommended Service Factor Amps for nonPENTEK motors is provided in Table 7. Always
verify Service Factor Amp values from current
