S-Drive Quick Start Up Guide
Step 1: Mount drive on secure wall or support beam using 4 screws. Ensure
drive is well ventilated. Leave at least 8” of free space around the controller for cooling. Plug conduit holes not used.
Step 2: Measure site voltage phase-phase and phase-ground; verify incoming
voltage is 1Ø or 3Ø 230V, or 3Ø 460V. make sure all phase-ground
voltages are equal. Models SPD2XXXX(F) require 230V input voltage.
Models SPD4XXXX(F) require 460V input voltage.
Step 3: Provide a dedicated fused disconnect (item #2 above) or circuit breaker
rated for drives input amps. No other equipment should be used for
this disconnect. Use fast acting class T fuses.
Step 4: Connect wire from input power supply to L1, L2, L3 and GND. NOTE:
For single phase supply power, wire to L1 and L3 and adjust overload switches for 50% of drive current rating. Ensure you have a solid
ground from the building or site. Ensure the ground is continuous between the service entrance and the controller. Ensure there is at least
8” between the input wires and any other wires.
Step 5: Ensure you have a three phase motor. Connect motor leads to T1/U,
T2/V, T3/W and GND. Ensure the ground is continuous between the
controller and the motor. For CentriPro motors, connecting T1/U to
Red, T2/V to Black and T3/W to Yellow will give the correct rotation. To
change rotation, swap any two motor leads T1/U, T2/V or T3/W. Ensure
there is at least 8” between the output wires and any other wires.
Step 6: Plumb pressure transducer in straight piece of pipe downstream of last
check valve in system. Do not install the pressure transducer or pressure tank where freezing can occur. If pressure transducer is placed
in grounded metal piping, disconnect the drain wire in the pressure
transducer cable from the controller chassis.
Step 7: Pre-charge bladder tank to 10-15 PSI below your system pressure. Tank
capacity should be at least 20% volume of maximum pump GPM.
Step 8: Set the Motor Overload Setting Switches. Choose a setting that is equal
to or less than the motor’s SFA rating.
Step 9: Factory pressure setting is 50 PSI when used with a 300PSI transducer.
Press and hold INC or DEC button to adjust pressure while pump is
running. Ensure drive goes into stand-by mode (solid green light/
pump off) to save pressure setting.
NOTE: Do not connect power to CONTROL TERMINALS. Connect only non-
powered switch contacts to these terminals.
