SECTION 3: Installation and Setup

3.1 General Installation Guidelines

• In order to avoid abrasion to the power and control cables, pad the top of the well casing (a rubber pad is recommended) where the cable will pass over it; use a cable reel for cable control.

• The unit must always be easy to rotate in the hoisting gear.

• Lay power and control cables out straight on the ground (no loops) before installation. Guide cables during lowering so that they are not stretched or squeezed while pump is being installed. Make sure that cable insulation is not nicked or damaged before or during installation. Never use the electrical cables to move the motor/pump.

• The pump and motor are heavy. Make sure that all connections are secure and that the hoisting gear is adequate to do the job before starting to lift pump.

Don’t stand under the unit. Don’t allow extra people into the area while hoisting the unit.

• If motor or pump/motor unit are attached to a supporting girder, do not remove girder until unit is vertical.

• Install pump at least 10’ (3m) below the lowest water level during pumping, but at least 6’ (2m) above the bottom of the well.

• 6” motors can be operated in vertical or horizontal

(when lead wire is at 12:00 position facing motor flange) positions.

• 4” motors can be operated in vertical or horizontal positions. Note that the thrust bearing will have shorter life in a non-vertical application. In such an installation, keep frequency of starts to less than

10 per day.

3.2 Proper Grounding

Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn or cause death. Installation or service to electrical equipment should only be done by qualified electrician.

Control panels must be connected to supply ground

Proper grounding serves two main purposes:

1. It provides a path to ground in case of a ground-fault.

Otherwise the current would present a shock or electrocution hazard.

2. It protects equipment from electrical surges.

Use wire the same size as, or larger than motor’s current-carrying wires (consult Tables in the motor section).

Installations must comply with the National Electric Code as well as state and local codes.

All systems must have lightning (surge) protection with a secure connection to ground.

An above ground lighting (surge) protection must be grounded metal-to-metal and extend all the way to the water bearing layer to be effective. Do not ground the lightning (surge) protection to the supply ground or to a ground rod as this will provide little or no surge protection to the unit.

All motors are internally grounded and requires a 3 or

4-wire drop cable.

3.3 Corrosive Water and Ground

Some waters are corrosive, and can eventually corrode the ground wire. If the installation uses a metal well casing, any ground current will flow through it. In the case of plastic piping and casing, the water column would carry the current in a ground fault situation.

To prevent this, route the motor ground wire and the motor power leads through a GFCI with a 10 mA set point. In this way, the GFCI will trip when a ground fault has occurred AND the motor ground wire is no longer functional.

3.4 Check Valves

Check valve installation is necessary for proper pump operation. The pump should have a check valve on its discharge, or within 25 feet (7.62 m) of the pump. For very deep wells, locate a check valve at least every 200 feet

(61 m) vertical.

• Use only spring type or gravity-poppet check valves. Swing type valves can cause water hammer problems.

• Do not use drain-back style check valves (drilled).

Check valves serve the following purposes:

• Maintain Pressure: Without a check valve, the pump has to start each cycle at zero head, and fill the drop pipe. This creates upthrust in the motor, and would eventually damage both the pump and motor.

• Prevent Water Hammer: If two check valves are used, and the lower one leaks, then a partial vacuum forms in the pipe. When the pump next starts, the flow fills the void area quickly, and creates a shock wave that can break piping and damage the pump. If you get water hammer on pump start, this may be the cause.

• Prevent Back-Spin: Without a functioning check valve, upon shutoff, the water drains back through the pump, and cause it to rotate backwards. This can create excessive wear on the thrust bearing, and if the pump restarts as water is flowing down the pipe, it will put an excessive load on the system.

SECTION 3: Installation and Setup

3.5 Start-Up

NOTICE: To avoid sand-locking pump, follow procedure below when starting pump for the first time. NEVER start a pump with discharge completely open unless you have done this procedure first.

1. Connect a pipe elbow, a short length of pipe and a gate valve to pump discharge at well head.

2. Make sure that controls will not be subjected to extreme heat or excess moisture.

3. Make sure power is OFF. DO NOT START PUMP YET.

4. Set gate valve on discharge 1/3 open; start pump.

5 Keep gate valve at this setting while water pumps out on ground. Let it run until water is clear of sand or silt. (To check solids in water, fill a glass from pump and let solids settle out).

6. When water is completely clear at 1/3 setting, open gate valve to approximately two-thirds open and repeat process.

7. When water is completely clear at 2/3 setting, open gate valve completely and run pump until water is completely clear.

8. Do not stop the pump until the water is clear.

Otherwise sand will accumulate in the pump stages which may bind or freeze the pump.

9. Remove gate valve and make permanent installation.

NOTICE: The motor may draw higher than normal current while the riser pipe is filling. After the riser pipe is full, the amp draw should drop back to less than the allowed current given on the motor nameplate.

When pump is in service, the amp draw must be approximately equal to or lower than the service factor amps given on the motor nameplate. If not, recheck entire installation and electrical hook-up to find out why amp draw is higher than normal.

Motor Torque

The motor exerts a strong torque force on the downpipe and any other supporting structures when it starts. This torque is usually in the direction that would unscrew right-hand threads (the motor’s reaction movement is clockwise as seen from above).

All pipe and pump joints must be tightened to safely handle the starting torque. Tighten all threaded joints to a minimum of 10 ft.-lb per horsepower. i.e. 20 HP = 200 ft.-lb; 50 HP = 500 ft.-lb.

Tack welding or strap welding may be required with higher horsepower pumps.

SECTION 4: Electrical Power

4.1 Mixing Wire Size with Existing

Installation

Using two different cable sizes.

Sometimes conditions make it desirable to use more than one size cable, such as replacing a pump in an existing installation.

For example: Installing a pump with a 4”, 5 HP, 230 volt, single phase motor, with the motor setting at 370’

(112.8 m) down the well and with 160’ (48.8 m) of #8 cable buried between the service entrance and the well head.

160 Ft. AWG 8

B. Cut off power supply wire ends. Match colors and lengths of wires to colors and lengths of motor leads.

C. Trim insulation back 1/2” (13mm) from supply wire and motor lead ends (Figure 4-2).

Figure 4-1: Mixing Wire Sizes: Example

In order to avoid replacing the buried cable, the question is: What size cable is required in the well? Calculate as follows:

1. According to Table 5-9, a total of 326’ (112.8 m) of #8 cable is the maximum length cable to power a 5 HP motor. The percent of this total that has been used by the 160’ (48.8 m) of cable in the buried run is:

160’ / 326’ = .49 or 49%.

2. With 49% of the allowable cable already used, 51% of the total length is left for use in the well. To avoid running a cable that is too small (gauge) and lowering the voltage to the motor, we have to find a cable size large enough so that 370’ (112.8 m) is less than 51% of the total length allowed for that size.

3. 370 ÷ 51% = 726 feet.

4. From Table 5-9 we find that the total allowable length for #4 cable is 809’ (246.6 m).

This is longer than needed. Therefore, #4 cable can be used for the 370’ (112.8 m) of cable in the well.

Any combination of sizes can be used, provided that the total percentage of the length of the two sizes of cable is not less than 100% of the allowed lengths.

4.2 Wire Splicing

Splice wire to motor leads. Use only copper wire for connections to pump motor and control box.

1. Taped splice (for larger wire sizes)

A. Stagger lead and wire length so that 2nd lead is

2” (50mm) longer than 1st lead and 3rd lead is

2” (50mm) longer than second.

Figure 4-3: Indent Connectors

F. Cut Scotchfil

electrical insulation putty into

3 equal parts and form tightly around butt

5185 1105 connectors. Be sure Scotchfil overlaps insulated part of wire.

G. Using #33 Scotch

®

tape, wrap each joint tightly; cover wire for about 1-1/2” (38mm) on each side of joint. Make four passes with the tape. When finished you should have four layers of tape tightly wrapped around the wire. Press edges of tape firmly down against the wire (Figure 4-4).

Completed splice

Figure 4-4: Wrap Splices

NOTICE: Since tightly wound tape is the only means of keeping water out of splice, efficiency of splice will depend on care used in wrapping tape.

NOTICE: For wire sizes larger than No. 8 (7mm

4.4 Checking Motor Rotation

To check rotation before the pump is installed, follow these steps:

During testing or checking rotation (such as “bumping”

or “inching”) the number of “starts” should be limited to

3 and total run time of less than 15 seconds.

Bumping must be done while motor is in horizontal

position and followed by a full 15 minute cooling-off period before any additional “starts” are attempted.

Energize the motor briefly, and observe the direction of rotation.

It should be counterclockwise when viewed from the pump (shaft) end.

To check rotation after the pump is installed:

NOTICE: NEVER continuously operate a pump with the discharge valve completely closed

5402 0506

Figure 4-10: Motor Rotation

(dead head). This can overload the motor due to lack of cooling, or destroy the pump and will void the warranty.

After energizing the motor, check the flow and pressure of the pump to make sure that the motor is rotating in the correct direction. To correct a wrong rotation, switch any two of the three cable connections (three-phase motor only). The setting that gives the most flow and pressure is correct.

A cooling-off period of 15 minutes is required between starts.

Hazardous voltage. Disconnect power before working on wiring.

Input voltage, current and insulation resistance values should be recorded throughout the installation and should be used for preventive maintenance.

Here is an example of current readings at maximum pump loads on each leg of a three wire hookup. Make calculations for all three possible hookups.

A. For each hookup, add the readings for the three legs.

B. Divide each total by three to get average amps.

C. For each hookup, find current value farthest from average (Calculate the greatest current difference from the average).

D. Divide this difference by the average and multiply by

100 to obtain the percentage of unbalance.

Use smallest percentage unbalance, in this case

Arrangement 2 (Table 4.1).

Us e the Current-Balance worksheet located in the Installation Record

After trying all three lead hookups, if the reading furthest from average continues to show on the same power lead, most of the unbalance is coming from the power source.

Call the power company.

If the reading furthest from average changes leads as the hookup changes (that is, stays with a particular motor lead), most of the unbalance is on the motor side of the starter. This could be caused by a damaged cable, leaking splice, poor connection, or faulty motor winding.

4.6 Transformer Sizing

A full three-phase power supply is recommended for all three-phase motors and may consist of three individual transformers or one three-phase transformer.

“Open” delta or wye connections which use only two transformers can be used, but are more likely to cause unbalanced current problems. Transformer ratings should be no smaller than listed in Table 4-2 for supply power to the motor alone.

Figure 4-12: Three Phase Power

Transformers are rated by KVA capacity. This must be high enough capacity for the motor being installed. If the transformer capacity is too small, the motor will receive reduced voltage and may be damaged.

Any other loads in the system would be in addition to the motor alone.

Refer to Table 4-2. Note that the open delta configuration can only use 87% of the rated power of the two transformers.

Frequency

It is highly important that the generator maintain constant frequency (Hz), since the motor’s speed depends upon frequency.

A drop of just 1 to 2 Hz can noticeably lower pump performance. An increase of 1 to 2 Hz can cause overload conditions.

Voltage Regulation

There is a significant difference in the performance of internally and externally regulated generators.

An external regulator senses output voltage dips and triggers an increase in the voltage output of the generator.

An internal regulator, senses current and responds to increased current by supplying more voltage.

Generator Operation

Start the generator before starting the pump motor.

The pump motor must be stopped before turning off the generator.

If the generator runs out of fuel, and the pump is still connected, it will put excess strain on the thrust bearings as the generator slows.

Risk of electrocution. Use transfer switches when the generator is used as a backup to the power grid. Contact your power company or generator manufacturer for proper use of standby or backup generators.

4.8 Special Applications

Using Phase Converters

Phase converters allow three-phase motors to operate from one-phase supply. Various styles of phase converters are available. Many converters do not supply a properly balanced voltage, and using these will void the motor’s warranty unless approval is obtained first.

Guidelines For Phase Converters:

• Current unbalance must be less than 5%.

• Converter to be sized to service factor capacity

• Maintain motor cooling with a cooling flow of at least

3’ per second.

• Fuses and circuit breakers must be time-delay type.

Motor Starting with Reduced Voltage

Starting a motor with full voltage will bring it to full speed in less than 1/2 second. This can:

• Spike the load current, causing brief voltage dips in other equipment.

• Over-stress pump and piping components because of high torque.

• Cause water hammer.

Motor Starters (3-Phase Only)

Various types of motor starters are available.

Autotransformers are recommended because of reduced current draw.

When motor starters are used, they should supply a minimum of 55% of rated voltage for adequate starting torque.

5.1 Motor Inspection

Check the motor for damage in shipping.

Before installation, check the following.

• Check over all tools, especially the hoisting gear, for wear or damage before hoisting unit.

• Inspect the motor cable for any nicks or cuts.

• Verify that motor nameplate data matches registration card information exactly.

• Verify that motor nameplate voltage is correct for available power supply voltage. Voltage must not vary more than +/-10% from nameplate rated voltage.

• Verify that the well diameter is large enough to accommodate the motor/pump unit all the way to the pump setting depth.

• For installations with tight well casings, make sure that riser pipe flanges are recessed to protect the power and control cables from abrasion and squeezing during installation.

Heavy object. Lifting equipment must be capable of lifting motor and attached equipment.

• If the total length of the pump motor unit (without any riser pipe) exceeds 10’ (3m), the unit must be supported with a girder while hoisting. Do not remove supporting girder until unit is standing vertically in the hoist. Check for damage.

5.2 Testing

Insulation Resistance

To check for insulation resistance:

1. Disconnect power to the motor for this test.

2. Connect an Ohm meter (resistance in Ω) between the power leads and the motor ground or well casing.

20KΩ Damaged motor, possible result of lightning strike.

500KΩ Typical of older installed motor in well.

2 MΩ Newly installed motor

10 MΩ Used motor, measured outside of well

20 MΩ New motor without cable

5.3 Storage and Transportation

The motors are filled with a non-toxic, Propylene Glycol and water solution to prevent damage from freezing temperatures. The solution will prevent damage from freezing temperatures to -40˚F (-40˚ C). Motors should be stored in areas that do not go below this temperature.

The solution will become slushy between 0˚F (-17˚C) and

-40˚F (-40˚C) but no damage occurs. If this occurs, allow the motor to sit in the well for several minutes before operating.

Storage site should be clean, well vented, and cool.

Keep humidity at the storage site as low as possible.

Protect motor and cables from direct sunlight.

Protect power supply cables and control cables from moisture by taping the cable ends with electrician’s tape.

Do not kink power supply or control cables.

Take care when moving unit (packed or unpacked) with crane or hoisting gear not to knock it against walls, steel structure, floors, etc. Do not drop motor.

Do not lift motor or motor/pump unit by power supply or control cables.

SECTION 5: XE Series 4” Submersible Motors

5.8 4” Motor Overload Protection

Single Phase Motors

Single phase motors have overload protection either in the motor or in the control box. Motors less than or equal to 1 HP have built-in protection. This automatic protection will continue to cycle under a locked or stalled rotor condition.

Single phase motors larger than 1 HP use overload protection located in the SMC (Submersible Motor

Controls) section. These are manual overloads and must be manually reset if an overload condition occurs.

5.9 Motor Cooling

Pentek

If the flow is less than specified, a flow-inducer sleeve can be installed, as shown in Figure 5-2. The sleeve will act like a smaller casing size to force flow around the motor to aid cooling.

5.10 Starting Frequency

Recommended motor starting frequency is shown below. Motor, pressure switch, tank, and pump life may be extended by limiting starts per hour and starts per day. Proper tank sizing is critical to control pump cycle times. Excessive or rapid cycling creates heat which can prematurely damage motors, switches, and controls.

6.2 Testing

ELECTRICAL

(See Table 1, Page 4, for Motor Electrical

Specifications)

1. Risk of electrical shock if the cable is

damaged. Inspect the motor cable for any nicks or cuts. Do not use the motor cable to pull, lift, or handle the motor. Protect the motor cable during storage, handling, moving, and installation of the motor.

2. Inspect the motor to determine that it is the correct horsepower, voltage, and size for the job and that there is no shipping damage. Verify that the motor nameplate voltage matches the available power supply voltage. The nameplate rated voltage must not vary more than ± 10% from the power supply voltage.

3. On all new installations and after the motor has sat idle for a long period of time, check the motor’s internal electrical resistance with a megohmmeter with lead wires connected. Prior to installation, the motor should have an insulation value of at least

500 megohms. After installation, the motor and power cable should have a minimum insulation value of 1 megohm. If the minimum values are below the listed values, contact the factory before starting the motor.

4. Fuses or circuit breakers and overload protection are required. Fuses or circuit breakers and overloads must be sized in accordance with National

Electrical Code (NEC) or Canadian Electrical Code

(CEC) requirements, as applicable, and with all applicable local codes and ordinances. See

Section 6 for these specifications.

5. Wire and ground the motor in accordance with

National Electrical Code (NEC) or Canadian

Electrical Code (CEC) requirements, as applicable, and with all applicable local codes and ordinances.

6.3 Storage and Drain/Fill Instructions

LIFTING

1. Heavy Object. Lifting equipment must be capable of lifting motor and attached equipment. Check over all tools, especially the hoisting gear, for wear or damage before hoisting the unit.

2. If the total length of the pump and motor unit (without any riser pipe attached) exceeds 10ft (3m), support the unit with a girder while hoisting (see Figure 1). Do not remove the supporting girder until the unit is standing vertically in the hoist. Check for damage.

25

SECTION 6: Pentek

®

6” Submersible Motors

6.3 Storage and Drain/Fill Instructions

Figure 1: When the pump and motor together

(without any riser pipe) are 10ft (3m) long or more, support the assembly before lifting to avoid bending it in the middle. Never try to lift the motor or pump by the motor cables.

Less Than 10 Ft (3 M) 10 Ft (3M) or More

Support the pump and motor!

10 Ft (3M) or More

Lack of support will destroy the motor!

MOTOR STORAGE AND INSTALLATION

1. The motor is filled at the factory with anti-freeze which will protect it in temperatures down to –22ºF

(-30ºC). Do not install, transport or store the motor below these temperatures if the motor is filled. If storage is necessary at temperatures below –22ºF

(-30ºC), drain the anti-freeze from the motor.

2. Verify that the motor is full before installing. If not, fill it with clean water (see below). Installing a motor that is not filled with liquid will void the warranty. Before installation, check all water fill and drain plugs, mounting bolts, and cable connections for tightness.

Refill the motor with clean water as follows:

A. Stand the motor on end (vertically) and remove the fill plug with a 5mm hexagonal nut driver.

B. Turn the motor shaft by hand while rocking the motor back and forth (see Figure 2).

C. Pour in clean water until the motor is as full as possible.

D. Repeat the turning/rocking procedure.

E. Check the liquid level. If necessary, add more clean water.

F. When the motor is full, re-install the fill plug.

Tighten it with the 5mm hexagonal nut driver.

Support motor while rocking to prevent motor from falling over.

A. Rock motor while turning shaft.

B. Fill motor; repeat rocking and filling until motor is full.

Figure 2: Rock Motor gently from side to side while turning shaft by hand (A), then fill with clean water (B).

Repeat until full.

6” Submersible Motors

6.3 Storage and Drain/Fill Instructions

NOTICE To avoid damaging the motor thrust bearing, do not hammer on the shaft, coupling, or slinger. Check the motor rotation by hand to make sure that it turns freely.

1. To avoid damage to the motor diaphragm, make sure that the bottom of the motor does not touch the dirt or mud at the bottom of the well. Install the motor at least 10’ above the well bottom.

2. To install the motor horizontally, lay it down with the lead wires at 12 o’clock when you are facing the motor shaft. To prevent any load on the shaft and bearings and to avoid any damaging vibrations to the motor, mount the motor solidly on the pump end and make sure that the pump and motor are accurately aligned.

3. Install the motor so that during operation water flows past all parts of it at a rate of at least 0.5 fps

(0.15 mps). If the well will not provide this flow, install a sleeve on the motor to channel water past it (see Figure 3). Do not try to operate the motor in mud or sand. To do so will damage the motor and void the warranty.

4. Electrical connections: Connect the three motor leads to the three hot motor leads (black, brown, and blue) in the incoming cable. Connect the ground wire (green and yellow) in accordance with

NEC or CEC requirements (as applicable) and in accordance with all applicable local codes and ordinances. Apply power momentarily to check rotation. If the motor runs backwards, interchange any two power leads to reverse direction of rotation.

6” Submersible Motors

6.7 Overload Protection

Submersible motors must have Class 10 overload protection that will disconnect the power within 10 seconds in the case of a locked rotor. To accomplish this, fixed-heater overloads are used. Refer to Section 10 for appropriate heaters.

The chart is based upon total line amps. Divide the motor amps by 1.732 when using a 6-lead motor with a Y-Delta

Starter. Notice: General Electric overload heaters are only usable with general electric overload relays. Do not adjust relays to exceed nameplate amps.

6.8 Motor Cooling

Pentek 6” motors are designed for minimum water flow of 0.5 ft. /sec. past the motor. Maximum water temperature is

95° F (35° C).

If the flow is less than specified, a flow-inducer sleeve can be installed. This will act like a smaller casing size, and force flow around the motor to aid cooling. Always use a flow-inducer sleeve when the pump is in open water.

6” and Larger Submersible Motors

7.1 Motor Inspection

The following conditions are stated to provide the owner with a list of criteria for maximum motor life and to assure motor warranty.

1. Maximum water temperature:

• A) 35°C (95°F): 6” (5~40HP) motors.

• B) 25°C (77°F): 6” (50,60HP), 8’’, 10”, 12’’ and 14” motors

2. PH content of the water between: 6.5 -8

3. Maximum chlorine content: 500 PPM

• Maximum Sulfuric acid iron content: 15 PPM

• Maximum Fluorine content: 0.8 PPM

• Maximum Electric conductivity: 118 μMHO/INCH

4. Maximum sand content: 50 PPM

5. Proper approved three phase overload protection.

See Table 13.

6. Proper fusing for motor circuit protection.

See Table C.

7. Proper line voltage during running conditions:

60Hz: 460V, 230V ±10%

50Hz: 380V ±10% at motor lead terminal. (Voltage drop of cable should be considered by user.)

Combination of voltage and frequency variation:

±10% (sum of absolute values of voltage and

frequency)

Current unbalance between legs should not exceed

5% of the average.

8. Proper sizing of motor (current, thrust, voltage, etc.) and a 10 feet clearance from the bottom of the well are required.

9. In the case of horizontal installation, the motor is to be rigidly aligned with the pump and firmly mounted to prevent any load on the shaft and bearings and to avoid any damaging vibrations to the motor.

10. The motor must always be immersed in water so that a flow velocity of cooling water at a rate of 0.5 feet per second flows past any and all parts of the motor.

The motor will not operate in mud or sand.

11. The power cables shall be sized large enough so that at rated current there will be less than a 5% voltage drop. See Table C. Cables must be waterproof submersible type.

12. For 3ø motor a balanced and properly sized transformer bank shall be provided. Improper electrical supply (for example, phase converter.

V-connection transformer, etc.) or connections will void the warranty

13. Single-phase protection is recommended for protection of the installation. Any failure due to single phasing of the incoming voltage causing the motor to fail will void the warranty.

Hitachi

is a registered trademark of Hitachi Industrial Equipment Systems Co., Ltd.

14. Surge suppressors are recommended in the interest of protecting the control panel, as well a.s the insulation system of the motor. Any motor failure due to lightning or other Acts of God will void the warranty.

15. Provide waterproof insulation splices between all lead wires and well cables.

16. In the event that a reduced voltage starter is used to start the motor, the following should be verified:

• Correct quick trip, class 10 or better, ambient compensated overloads are incorporated.

• Proper short circuit protection is utilized.

• The torque required by the motor and pump package is attainable by this type starter.

• The lead arrangement of the motor is acceptable with the proposed starter load connections.

• Verify that if any time delay relays are used in switching contactors in and out, that the time settings do not exceed 2 seconds; this could damage the motor.

• lf a manual auto transformer starter is used, voltage should be minimum 60% of rated voltage, and switched to “Run”condition within 2 seconds. Double check Table B and C for correct protection.

17. Single-Phase Motors (5-15HP)

Proper connections and correct capacitors and relays are necessary for single-phase motor starting and running. Connection diagram: Sec Fig. 1.

Performance and recommendable capacitors: See

Table D.

7.2 Testing

1. Do not use lead wires to pull, lift or handle the motor.

The lead wires should be protected during storage, handling, moving and installation of the motor. 2)

2. Inspect the motor to determine that it is the correct

HP, voltage and size for the job and that there is no shipping damage.

3. The factory-installed water in the motor is supplied with anti-freeze capable of temperatures to

0°C(-22°F). Do not install, transport or store below these temperatures. If storage is necessary below these temperatures, drain the water from the motor.

4. After long periods of idleness and on all new installations, check the electrical resistance and megger the motor with lead wires connected: see table A. Prior to installation, the motor should have an insulation value of at least 50 megohms. After installation, motor and power cable should have a minimum insulation value of 1 megohm. If minimum values are not obtained, contact factory.

5. Verify motor is filled with clean water before installing. The warranty is void if this is not done.

Also check the tightness of all water filling and drain plugs, mounting bolts and cable connections.

6. Do not hammer the shaft, coupling or slinger since this may damage the thrust bearing. Check the rotation of the motor by hand to insure that it turns freely.

7. Do not drop the bottom end of the motor in the dirt or mud since this may plug up the diaphragm opening.

8. If motor is to be installed horizontal, make sure that the lead wires are at the 12 o’clock position when facing the motor shaft (in horizontal position).

NOTE:

There are no bearings that need oil or grease. The motor, being inaccessible, should be monitored through its electrical connections.

• A) Measure and record operating current and voltage.

• B) Measure and record the motor insulation resistance. Any resistance of less than 50 megohm

(5,000,000) for a new motor should be evaluated or checked further by a qualified service shop.

• Lightning arrestors and/or surge capacitors will help prevent damage to the control box, cables, and motor.

• Single-phase protection will help in preventing motor failure due to adverse incoming primary power.

• Based on the values obtained in A and B above and the output flow rates and pressures of the pump, a complete picture of total performance can be obtained. This can be used to determine any pump and motor maintenance and overhauling which might be required.

• If the motor is to be stored, protect the unit from freezing by storing in an area with a temperature higher than -30°C (-22° F).

7.3 Storage and Drain Fill Instructions

1. After energizing the motor, check the flow and pressure of the pump to make sure that the motor is rotating in the correct direction. To correct a wrong rotation, switch any two of the three cable connections. (Three-phase motor only)

2. When starting the pump for the first time, inspect the water for sand. If sand appears, then continue to pump till the water clears up; otherwise, sand will accumulate in the pump stages and will bind or freeze the moving parts if water is allowed to flow back down the well.

3. During testing or checking rotation (such as

“humping” or “inching”) the number of “starts” should be limited to 3, followed by a full 15 minute cooling-off period before any additional “starts’’ are attempted. Depending on the depth of the well and/or method of checking, these rotational checks or ‘’starts’’ may actually be full-fledged starts. If this is the case, then a full cooling-off period of 15 minutes is required between this type of start.

4. For automatic (pilot device) operation, the motor should be allowed to cool for 15 minutes between starts.

5. Input voltage, current and insulation resistance values should be recorded throughout the life of the installation and should be used as a from of preventive maintenance.

6” and Larger Submersible Motors

7.7 Overload Protection

Submersible motors must have Class 10 overload protection that will disconnect the power within 10 seconds in the case of a locked rotor. To accomplish this, fixed-heater overloads are used. Refer to Section 10 for appropriate heaters.

The chart is based upon total line amps. Divide the motor amps by 1.732 when using a 6-lead motor with a Y-Delta

Starter. Notice: General Electric

®

overload heaters are only usable with General Electric overload relays. Do not adjust relays to exceed nameplate amps.

7.8 Motor Cooling

Hitachi 6” motors are designed for minimum water flow of 0.5 ft. /sec. past the motor. Maximum water temperature is

95° F (35° C).

SECTION 8: Pentek Intellidrive

Variable Frequency Drives

Transducer

The Pentek Intellidrive uses a 4-20mA, 0-100PSI pressure transducer to control motor speed (max is 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.

Keypad

The keypad programs the Drive, monitors the status of the pump, and displays faults if they occur. Each button has a unique function, as described in Figure 2. The LCD display shows a text display of the status of the Drive’s operation.

Other LEDs light up to indicate when certain buttons are pressed or certain events occur.

Fan

The Drive uses a thermostatically controlled internal fan which operates automatically when necessary to cool the Drive components.

Changes internal pressure setpoint from 15 PSI to transducer max -3PSI

(default is 60

PSI).

Runs the Drive at 45Hz (with no pressure control) to allow installer to pump out well.

Changes display to previous screen.

Selects menu items and confirms numeric value changes.

Mounting the Drive

To mount the Drive as shown in Figure 6, follow this procedure:

1. First, remove the cover by backing out screw at bottom of front cover.

2. Push on backplate with thumbs while pulling the cover toward you with index fingers, creating a gap. See Figures 3 and 4.

5. Ensure the Drive’s ventilation holes are not blocked and there is enough space around it to allow free air flow (minimum

3” clearance on top, bottom, and sides).

See Figure 6. Once the Drive is mounted, electrical wiring can be connected.

Figure 7 - Reattaching Drive cover

7. Replace screw at bottom of front cover.

SECTION 8: Pentek Intellidrive

Variable Frequency Drives

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

6 AWG will require an external junction box. Run

6 AWG 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 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 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). See Tables 2 through 6 for suggested wire sizes.

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 to the upper right of the terminal block. 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.

Figure 9 - Basic Wiring Connections for Startup

SECTION 8: Pentek Intellidrive

Variable Frequency Drives

Pressure Tank Recommendations

Minimum tank size is two gallons. Use a precharged pressure tank with Drive, as shown in

Figure 1. 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 7 GPM 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 10 gallons can be used, but may require adjustment of Wake

Delay parameter.

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 green cable shield to the metal cable shield screw.

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.

To connect the transducer wires:

1. Strip wire ½ inch

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 in lb). 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 conduit connections.

To determine the correct wire sizes for installation, see Table 3.

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. See specifications ratings in Section 8.2.

8.4 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.

1. Program the Drive: Apply power to the

Pentek Intellidrive. Setup Guide will appear in the display. Follow keypress sequence shown in

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 8).

• 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 8). 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

Amp rating.

NOTICE Pentek ® submersible motors may 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.

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 2 HP pump.

Press Main Menu and follow the keypress sequence shown in Figure 11. 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 common occurrence in a

80Hz operation.

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 9).

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 9).

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

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

9.6.1 Description of Information Required by the Pentek Assistant

9905 Motor Nom Voltage: This is the nominal voltage stated on the motor nameplate. If the motor is rated for operation at multiple voltages, select the voltage nearest the utility voltage. Ensure the motor connections correspond to the voltage selected.

9906 Motor Nom Current: This is the nominal current found on the motor nameplate. Do not use service factor amps.

9907 Motor Nom Freq: This is the nominal frequency found on the motor nameplate.

9908 Motor Nominal Speed: This is the nominal speed found on the motor nameplate. Use the number on the motor nameplate. Do not enter 3600, 1800, etc.

9909 Motor Nom Power: This is the nominal horsepower found on the motor nameplate. Do not include service factor unless the service factor is greater than 1.15.

2001 Min Speed (Required for Subs only): This is the minimum speed the motor is allowed to run. This minimum is set to prevent damage to the motor thrust bearings. Refer to motor literature to determine setting.

4011 Internal Setpoint: This is the pressure that the system will maintain.

4009 100% Value: This is the full scale reading of the transducer. The 100% Value of a 200PSI transducer is 200PSI.

4023 PID Sleep Level: Operation below this rpm will cause the drive to stop. Must never be below the shut-off head RPM.

4025 Wake-Up Dev: This is the pressure drop that will trigger the drive to restart. For example, if the set point is

60 PSI and the Wake-Up Deviation is 10 PSI, the drive will restart at 50 PSI.

9.8 Helpful Hints

Alarm 2025 upon startup

This is a normal alarm, and occurs whenever motor data is changed. The alarm shows for about 15 seconds while the drive performs a motor calibration.

Fault 14 External Fault 1

External fault 1 is triggered when the VFD’s output frequency exceeds motor nameplate frequency for more than 10 seconds. The ON delay parameter controls the time delay for this fault. If the system includes a large tank, or requires more time to reach the setpoint, increase parameter 1404 (PPC5) or 1806 (PPC3).

This fault is designed to protect against loss of prime, broken shafts, etc. To disable this fault, adjust parameter

2002 Maximum speed, to the motor nameplate rpm.

Sleep

The Pentek drive monitors pump speed to determine demand. The pump is shut off when the rpm goes below parameter 4023: PID Sleep Level. Always set parameter

4023 high enough to trigger sleep mode during low demand conditions. Note that the shut-off head at parameter 4023: RPM, must be higher than the pressure set-point.

The pressure setpoint can be determined by slowly closing the discharge valve to confirm that the RPM decreases to a level that triggers the sleep mode. The discharge head can also be found by using the BEC2 program on the BEC2.net website.

Systems that use small tanks, or have a flat performance curve, may cycle rapidly at intermediate flows. Correct this by increasing Parameter 4024: PID Sleep Delay.

DO NOT increase parameter 4024 to a level that will cause the pump to run with no demand. The water in the pump can overheat.

Sleep Options

Other devices such as flow or float switches can be used to trigger sleep mode. Parameter 4022 determines the method to trigger sleep mode. These options can be used for pump up, pump down, and other on/off applications.

Multiple Systems / Setpoints

The Pentek PPC Series Controller includes (2) independent process control sets (groups 40 and 41).

Group 41 parameters can be selected using Digital Input

(DI3). When first set-up, groups 40 and 41 are identical.

A set can be changed later with parameters for a second process.

Constant Flow

After running the Pentek Assistant, the drive can be configured for constant flow by adjusting parameters

4006: Units, and 4009: 100% Value.

Constant Flow Example 1:

Using a 4-20ma velocity meter with a range of

0 to 10 ft/sec. We want the display to be ft/sec.

Set 4006 to ft/sec

Set 4009 to 10

Constant Flow Example 2:

Same setup as example 1, but we have a 4” pipe and want the display to be gpm.

Set 4006 to gpm

Set 4009 to 393 (this is the flow in a 4” pipe which results in a 10 ft/sec velocity).

Constant Flow Example 3:

Using a 4-20ma flow meter with a range of 0 to 100 gpm.

We want the display to be gpm.

Set 4006 to gpm

Set 4009 to 100

SECTION 9: PPC Series 50/60 Hz Variable Frequency Drives

9.9 PPC3 and PPC5 Tank Sizing

These instructions are only for systems that require tanks. Pressure tanks are generally required to maintain system pressure during periods of low or no demand.

Tank pre-charge must be less than the pressure set point

– wake up deviation.

Tank can be sized using Boyle’s law (V1 x P1 = V2 x P2).

Units are in gallons and PSI.

Typically tanks are sized for approximately 20% of pump capacity. For example, a 150 gpm pump typically requires

30 gallon total tank size.

Drawdown =

Total Tank Size x (Precharge+14.7)

__

Total Tank Size x (Precharge+14.7)

(Setpoint+14.7 – Wake Up Deviation) (Setpoint+14.7)

Reactors

9.10 Reactors And Filters

Variable frequency drives produce voltage spikes that are a function of voltage rise-time and length of motor cable.

In extreme cases peak voltage may exceed three times the nominal operating voltage.

Reactors

A reactor is a resistance and inductance device that reduces voltage spikes. It does this by both increasing the voltage rise-time and improving the impedance match of the cable and motor.

Filters

A filter combines a reactor with a capacitor network. The capacitors absorb a portion of the voltage spikes. This further reduces the peak voltage seen at the motor.

When to Use a Reactor or Filter

The chart below is a general guideline when choosing between using a filter or reactor.

SECTION 10: PPX NEMA Pump Panels

10.1 Description

The PPX series of pump control panels consist of a manually operated fusible disconnect switch and a magnetic contactor with a solid-state overload housed in a NEMA enclosure. The fusible disconnect switch provides motor branch short-circuit protection. The contactor is proven in field applications where wide voltage fluctuations may occur. The overload relays provide motor overload protection.

The rainproof enclosure allows all routine operations to be performed from the outside without opening the door.

The fusible disconnect switch handle is mechanically interlocked with the enclosure door to prevent opening the door before the handle is moved to the OFF position.

For better access during repair or inspection, the cover may be removed by lifting the door upward and outward.

A latch is provided to prop the door open on windy days.

The overload relay incorporates a dial for field adjustment of tripping current.

Figure 10-1: Typical NEMA Enclosure

Install in conformance with National Electrical Code and all local codes. Branch circuit protection must be provided.

These controllers have all components arranged for easy access from the front. The circuits are relatively simple and circuit components are selected for trouble-free operation. Periodically, depending on the environment and duty, the panel should be inspected and cleaned.

Inspect all devices for loose bolts and nuts.

SECTION 11: Submersible Motor Controls

11.1 How it Works

Submersible Motor Controls act as an above ground control system for you submersible motor. They provide easy access to the “brains” of your motor, so you can monitor, adjust and perform maintenance without removing the motor.

There are three main groups of motor controls. Each of these controls has a slightly different function, although all serve the main purpose of providing control for the motor.

Capacitor Start / Induction Run (CSIR)

A CSIR control uses a starting capacitor and a switch.

When voltage is first applied, the switch is closed and the start capacitor is in the circuit. This provides extra torque to bring the motor up to speed. The switch is often referred to as a potential relay. The relay’s coil senses voltage across the windings. When the windings get close to full speed, they magnetize the coil and physically breaks the connection to the start windings. This takes not only the start windings out of the circuit, but the starting capacitor as well. The motor then runs on the main winding alone.

Capacitor Start / Capacitor Run (CSCR)

A CSCR control functions very similar to a CSIR control except that in addition to the starting capacitor, it also uses a running capacitor. This allows the start winding to act as an auxiliary winding during operation. This smooths out operation of the motor and provides greater efficiency and a reduction in vibration and noise.

Plus Series Controls

The Pentek ® PLUS series controls combine a CSCR design and a control circuit to provide not only starting power to the motor, but a switch to turn the control on and off. The switch takes the form of a magnetic contactor that uses a coil that physically closes the contacts when energized. The contactor allows the installer to use a pressure switch with a lower current rating, since it is not switching the full amperage of the motor.

11.2 Specifications

All Pentek Submersible Motor Controls are rated for

Indoor or Outdoor use and employ NEMA 3R enclosures.

They are rain-tight and resistant to weathering and corrosion.

The controls are rated for operation in temperatures up to 50° C (122° F). DO NOT locate the control box in direct sunlight.

The terminals can accept up to #4 AWG copper wire rated for at least 75° C. Internal wiring conforms to appliance wiring standards UL 1015 which is resistant to acids, oils, alkalies, moisture and fungus.

Pentek Submersible Motor controls are agency recognized and tested to rigorous safety standards.

For specific ratings of individual components please see the repair parts portion of the manual.

11.3 Mounting and Installation

• Mount the control boxes to a secure backing.

• Mount controls vertical and plumb.

• In order to maintain NEMA 3R, plug all unused openings.

SECTION 12: Motor Protective Devices - 50/60 Hz

12.1 How They Work

Pentek ® motor protectors are designed to protect single phase pumps from dry run, dead head, jammed impeller, and over & under voltage conditions.

A calibration adjustment allows the motor protector to be calibrated to specific pumping applications, thereby reducing the possibility of false or nuisance tripping. A micro drive based voltage and current sensing circuit monitors for power fluctuations, over-current, and undercurrent conditions. When an abnormality, such as loss of suction, is detected, the motor protector deactivates its output relay and immediately disconnects the pump motor. The motor protector then activates its user-

Current Transformer Ratio selectable “Restart Delay” (Dry run recovery) timer.

When the timer counts to zero or power is removed and reapplied, the motor protector reactivates its output relay and turns the pump back on.

An infrared LED communicates directly with a hand-held diagnostics tool called the Informer (sold separately). The

Informer displays 16 parameters including calibration point, trip point, running points, and last fault.

NOTICE: The use of flow restrictors or unusually high head pressures at the time of calibration may interfere with the detection of dead head conditions.

12.3 Mounting And Installation

Mount the Pentek ® Motor Protector in a convenient location in or near the motor control panel. If the location is wet or dusty, then the Pentek Motor Protector should be mounted in a NEMA 3R, 4, or 12 enclosure.

12.4 Wiring Connections

1. Connect one line from the fused disconnect to the

Motor protector’s “L1 IN” terminal. Run a wire from the “L1 OUT” terminal to the other in-line controls such as a pressure or float switch. See Figure 10-1.

2. Connect the other line from the fused disconnect to

Motor Protector “L2 IN” terminal. Run a wire from the

“L2 OUT” terminal to the other in-line controls such as pressure or float switches. See Figure 12-1.

NOTICE: The Motor Protector may not detect a dead head

(blocked pipe) condition on applications where the pump is undersized for a given motor or flow restrictors are used on high stage pumps or low yield wells.

Calibration/Settings

NOTICE: Calibrate the Motor Protector during normal pumping conditions.

1. Turn the RESTART DELAY / CALIBRATION adjustment fully counter-clockwise to the “CAL.” position.

2. Apply power to the Motor Protector. The pump motor should be running at this point.

3. The Motor Protector is being calibrated when the

CAL. LIGHT turns on (approximately 5 seconds).

Within 10 seconds, proceed to step 4.

4. Set the RESTART DELAY / CALIBRATION adjustment to the desired Restart Delay (Dry Well Recovery Time).

If you leave the RESTART DELAY / CALIBRATION adjustment in the “CAL.” position, the unit will trip off and stay off. Turn the adjustment out of the “CAL.” position to start the pump.

Manual Reset Mode: If the RESTART DELAY /

CALIBRATION adjustment is set to “RESET”, the Motor protector is in Manual Reset mode. After the Motor

Protector shuts down due to a voltage or load problem, the RESTART DELAY / CALIBRATION adjustment must be rotated out of the “RESET” position to restart the pump.

NOTICE: Any restart delay can be by-passed by rotating the RESTART DELAY / CALIBRATION adjustment to the “RESET” position and back to the desired Restart

Delay setting.

Rapid Cycling Protection: Rapid cycling is defined as more than four restarts in a 60 second period. The Motor

Protector will lockout upon detecting a rapid cycling condition until power is removed and re-applied to the

L1 IN and L2 IN terminals. See Diagnostics Table for instructions to diagnose a rapid cycling fault.

2. Recheck pump and motor model numbers prior to installation.

Keep a written record.

1. Pressure control equipment malfunction.

2. Hole in piping system.

3. Pressure/storage tank failure.

Damaged motor control.

Check components per troubleshooting.

Short or Ground.

1. Fuses give superior protection and should be used in preference to circuit breakers when possible.

2. Inspect wiring for visible signs of heat damage (discoloration, damage to insulation).

3. Disconnect power and check with ohmmeter or megohmmeter to ground.

Improper sizing.

No rotation.

Restriction in piping.

Consult manufacturer’s information / sizing chart for proper size and replace as required.

1. Motor not turning (see “Pump won’t start” above.

2. Broken shaft coupling. Ammeter will show “low” amps.

1. Check valve sticking.

2. Check valve installed backward.

3. Broken check valve poppet or flapper lodged in piping system downstream.

1. Intake screen encrusted with minerals.

2. Insufficient clearance between pump and well casing for high capacity pump. Calculate intake velocity and limit to less than

5 feet per second.

Check And Restore

1. Install air line upon reinstalling unit if not already present for measuring depth with tire pump and gage.

2. Measure dynamic (drawdown) level with string or resistance meter.

3. Select different pump if appropriate.

1. Unit is pumping dirty or sandy water.

2. Lift with pump hoist, check pull weight and resistance

1. Recheck operating conditions by comparing to pump curve.

2. Operate within ±5 percentage points of efficiency from B.E.P.

1. Listen for sucking sound at well head when pump shuts off.

2. Well pipe empties when submersible pump is pulled from well.

1. Three phase motor - exchange any two of the three leads in the three phase motor starter panel.

2. Single phase motor - recheck motor and control panel wiring diagrams. Change wiring as appropriate.

3. Proper rotation for motors for sub. and centrifugal pumps with

CW rotation is CCW when looking at the shaft end of the motor.

4. Make a visual flow check or observe flow meter. Amperage is not a reliable indicator of wrong rotation.

Consult manufacturer’s performance charts or curves.

1. Observe pressure loss with system shut off.

2. Look for wet spot or depression along pipe path.

1. Check for surging, irregular amperage readings with amprobe.

2. Look for bursts of air in water.

3. Listen for surging sounds in piping.

1. Control equipment incorrectly selected or installed.

2. Welded electrical contact points.

3. Pressure switch supply pipe/tube plugged with rust/scale/ice.

Hazardous pressure and risk of explosion and

scalding. If pump is running continuously at no flow (with discharge shut off), water may boil in pump and piping system. Under steam pressure, pipes may rupture, blow off of fittings or blow out of pump ports and scald anyone near.

2. Verification may require removal of pump for service and visual inspection.

1. PROCEED WITH CAUTION!

2. Remove rings and other jewelry from hands before working with live power circuits.

3. Wear insulated boots and gloves.

4. Disconnect the power, check with ohmmeter.

Moisture.

5. Progressively check wire at each splice point (or obvious damage point).

6. When ground disappears, the fault is behind the point of discovery.

7. Check motor leads to motor shell with cable splice removed to determine if ground fault is in motor or supply cable.

Protect motor, motor starter and control devices from condensation or direct water spray.

Th ree phase motor “single phasing”.

Bi nding or dragging.

Po wer supply problems.

1. One power lead is not live or online.

2. Check with local utility company to see if having problems.

3. Check local power installation for transformer problems.

4. Will not be able to observe this condition very long. Very destructive to motor windings. Motor stator will soon be destroyed if single phasing protection is not installed.

5. This problem usually requires a replacement motor.

6. Determine source, install or replace protective gear.

1. High volume of sand or other abrasives in well. Check by observing water output.

2. Severe damage to motor thrust bearing due to cavitation or abrasives.

Usually very noisy.

3. Damage to motor control system.

1. Check with voltmeter while pump is running for ±10% voltage variance.

2. Extreme grounding of motor or supply cable. Check with ohmmeter or megohmmeter.

3. Poor wiring connections. Check splice, and terminal screws for looseness. Watch for discolored cable.

Three Phase Motors

Measure each line to each other (three readings).

Compare these to the line-to-line resistance shown in motor specification table.

• If all leads measure within the table specifications, the leads and motor are okay.

• If a lead shows a higher resistance, then there is an open in the cable or winding. Check for secure cable connections.

• If a lead shows lower resistance, then there is a short circuit in the cable or winding.

Single Phase Motors: 3-wire

• Measure the main winding (black to yellow).

• Measure the start winding (red to yellow).

• Compare these readings with the motor specification table.

• If the readings vary widely (some high, some low), the leads may be switched. Confirm that the cable colors are correct.

Single Phase Motors: 2-wire

• Measure the resistance between the two lines.

• Compare the reading with the motor specification table.

• If the reading shows a high resistance, there may be an open in the cable or motor. Check for secure cable connections.

• If the reading shows very low resistance, there may be a short in the cable or motor.

DRY RUN / DEAD HEAD: The motor protector has shut the pump off due to a dry run or dead head condition.

The unit is timing through the restart delay and will try to restart.

If pot is in the “RESET” position, rotate out of that position. If the “CAL” light blinks, check for an overload condition. If the RUN” light blinks, look for a dry run or dead head condition. If no lights come on, check incoming power for adequate voltage.

Check for restricted flow or inadequate supply of liquid.

OVERLOAD: The motor protector has shut the pump off due to an overload condition. The unit is timing through the restart delay and will try to restart if line voltage is at an acceptable level.

VOLTAGE FAULT: The motor protector is preventing the pump from starting due to voltage problems. The voltage is being monitored and the unit will remain in this mode until the voltage is at an acceptable level.

RAPID CYCLE: The motor protector has shut down on rapid cycling. Power must be removed and reapplied to reset the unit.

Check for low or high voltage or jammed pump impeller. If these conditions do not exist, recalibrate the unit while it is drawing higher amps (Amps should not exceed SFA).

If the unit remains in this state for more than 5 seconds, check for high or low voltage.

Check for broken bladder on the pressure tank (if used), or check for defective pressure or float switch.

13.5 Submersible Controls

Troubleshooting

Individual Component Diagnostics

Potential Relays

Using ohm meter - Coil Resistance (2 to 5) should measure according to the specification printed on the wiring diagram.

Using ohm meter - Contact resistance (1 to 2) should measure close to zero; higher values indicate deterioration of the contacts.

When the SMC first starts a faint click should be heard very shortly after the pump activates

Start Capacitor

Using a capacitor meter – measured capacitance should be within +20% of the rating printed on the capacitor (or consult parts list for ratings).

Using ohm meter – the meter should quickly show low resistance (ohms) and move slowly to show higher resistance. Resistance should not be zero or open.

Physical Inspection – A foul smell or a buildup of black soot indicates that a start capacitor has vented usually because of heat or prolonged use.

Run Capacitor

Using a capacitor meter – measured capacitance should be within +/- 6% of the rating printed on the capacitor (or consult parts list for ratings).

Using ohm meter – the meter should quickly show low resistance (ohms) and move slowly to show higher resistance. Resistance should not be zero or open.

Physical Inspection – Run capacitors have a built in fail safe device that disconnects the capacitor in case of overheat, in the case of such an event the capacitor will bulge.

Overloads

Push overload to ensure that it is reset.

Using ohm meter – connection resistance should measure close to zero.

Magnetic Contactor

Using ohm meter – Coil Resistance should measure per specification on wiring diagram.

Using ohm meter – Resistance between T1 & L1 and T2 &

L2 should measure close to zero with contacts manually closed. Greater values indicates degradation of contacts.

Physical Inspection – Contacts should be free to move up and down.

Measurements while running

Small Box – Measurements cannot be taken while running, line voltage can be monitored with the cover off, by placing a voltmeter across L1 & L2. Winding resistance can be taken while motor is connected and should correspond to manufacturers specification.

Fatal electrical shock hazard. Only qualified persons should perform the following procedure.

Medium and Large Box - To take measurements while running, remove the cover. Turn on the pump and allow to cycle as usual. L1 to L2 should measure 230V +/- 10%, it should not dip during operation. A clamp-on ammeter can be used to measure amp draw along any number of circuits.

The larger yellow wire or main leads can be used to measure amp draw of the system, draw should spike and then come in less than 1 second. Orange lead amp draw should start out high and then drop out to become zero. If the reading stays high there is a relay problem.

The voltage between Red and Yellow should measure approximately 330V - higher values indicate no load; lower values indicate the motor (CSCR or PSC only) is not up to speed. Note that winding resistance cannot be measured while the motor is attached to the control box.

SECTION 14: Appendix

14.1 Installation Checklist

This checklist can be used to preview and verify steps in the installation of Pentek ® equipment. Refer to appropriate section of the manual for more information.

Electrical Power

❏ Verify that the electrical service transformers KVA rating is adequate per the Table 4-2.

Verify that motor voltage and frequency on the nameplate match the power supply voltage.

❏ Verify that fuse sizes are appropriate for the installation

Verify that the pump, casing and power supply are all grounded.

❏ Inspect lightning arrestors for proper sized wire and grounding. Do not rely solely on a grounding rod in the earth.

❏ Verify that the cable size from the power supply box to the pump is the correct size. See tables in section 5-4.

Motor

❏ Lead Condition.

❏ Check insulation resistance.

Verify nameplate information for the service needed.

❏ Verify that the motor is correctly sized to pump.

❏ Verify that fuses, heaters and other electrical components are appropriate for the amp load.

Fluid level.

Pump and Motor Assembly

❏ Verify pump shaft rotation.

Verify that the pump rating matches the site requirements.

❏ Visually inspect pump and motor for electrical lead condition and splice condition.

Installation

❏ Verify that the pipe joints are tight.

❏ Verify that check valves have been installed.

Verify that the cable is supported with straps or tape at least every 10 feet (3.05 m).

❏ Pump cooling.

❏ Start the pump and observe any noise, vibration, leaks or overheating.

❏ Verify that the pump performance is as specified, that the electrical current is balanced and within specifications.

Check Valves

Check valve installation is necessary for proper pump operation. The pump should have a check valve on its discharge, or within 25 feet (7.62 m) of the pump. For very deep wells, locate a check valve at least every

200 feet (61 m).

• DO NOT install the check valve midway between the pump and the ground surface. Vibration in the piping will resonate and may damage or destroy the piping or pump. Adjust check valve spacing to avoid a mid-point placement.

• Use only spring type check valves. Swing type valves can cause water hammer problems.

• Do not use drain-back style check valves (drilled).

Check valves serve the following purposes:

• Maintain Pressure: Without a check valve, the pump has to start each cycle at zero head, and fill the down pipe. This creates upthrust in the motor, and would eventually damage both the pump and motor.

• Prevent Water Hammer: If two check valves are used, and the lower one leaks, then a partial vacuum forms in the pipe. When the pump next starts, the flow fills the void area quickly and creates a shock wave that can break piping and damage the pump.

• Prevent Back-Spin: Without a functioning check valve, upon shutoff, the water drains back through the pump, and cause it to rotate backwards. This can create excessive wear on the thrust bearing, and if the pump restarts as water is flowing down the pipe, it will put an excessive load on the pump.

14.3 Sizing Submersible Pump, Motor, and Tanks

Sizing a Submersible Pump

The following steps should be taken relative to properly sizing the system.

1. Determine gpm of system and well.

2. Size of well casing and type.

3. Determine service pressure requirements.

4. Determine voltage and phase.

5. Determine discharge pipe size.

6. Calculate friction head loss.

7. Determine (total discharge) head.

8. Select the submersible pump for the above criteria, and appropriate controls for the pump.

9. Select the proper size tank for minimum one minute pump run time.

10. For starting frequency, refer to Section 5.10.

11. Determine the distance from the service entrance panel to the pump motor.

12. Determine the size wire required based on the motors maximum load amps and the distance from the service entrance to the motor.

SECTION 14: Appendix

The answer to four basic questions will help select the proper pump.

1. What is the size of the well? The inside diameter of the well must be known so that the proper size pump and drop pipe can be determined.

2. What is the submergence? The vertical distance in feet from the pump to the water level while the pump is operating (see Figure 12-1). If the pump is installed away from the well and is on higher ground, this elevation must also be included. This must not be confused with the standing water level.

3. What should the average discharge pressure be?

Usual average discharge pressure is 50 lbs. – half way between the 40 lbs. to 60 lbs. switch setting of most water systems. More pressure is needed when the tank is installed away from the pump and at a higher level, or when house or yard fixtures are above the pump and tank, and a larger pump must be used.

4. What capacity is required? The discharge capacity of the pump in gallons per minute that is needed for satisfactory service. The pump should have enough capacity so that it can deliver the total water requirement in 2 hours of continuous operation. See

Table 12-1 for average water requirements.

Installation Terminology

Standing or Static Water Level – distance from top of well to natural water level when pump is not operating.

Drawdown Distance – distance water level drops while pump is operating.

Drawdown or Pumping Water Level – standing water level plus drawdown.

Submergence – distance submersible pump intake screen is installed below drawdown level.

Elevation – vertical distance between top of well and service inlet.

Pump Setting – distance from top of well to pump inlet screen.

Service Pressure – pressure required (in PSI) at service inlet.

Friction Loss – loss of pressure due to friction of water flowing through pipe and fittings.

Head – discharge head (in feet) delivered when pump is operating at desired capacity.

Horizontal Pipe Run – horizontal distance between service inlet and well.

Top of Well” also means “Pitless Adapter Level” or well exit.

“Service Inlet” also means “Storage Tank Inlet”.

Selecting a Pump

TIP: PSI can be converted to equivalent feet of head by multiplying by 2.31.

i.e. 60 psi = 138.6 feet of head

To choose a motor for your submersible pump you first must know:

• Flow required in Gallons per Minute

• Total head (Pumping level, friction losses and service pressure required)

Friction loss must be calculated, and depends upon total length, diameter and type of pipe plus additions for each fitting (valves, elbows...) in the line.

Refer to the product catalog for friction loss charts.

SECTION 14: Appendix

EXAMPLE

Assume we want 16 GPM at 60 PSI from a pump drawdown level (pumping level) 100 feet below the service inlet.

We have a 35 foot horizontal run of 1 1/4” plastic pipe with two gate valves and four 90° elbows.

To find the Friction losses we must refer to friction loss charts for pipe and fittings.

We find:

• 135 feet of pipe for the total pipe run (100 + 35).

• 10 equivalent feet of pipe for the gate valves (2 x5)

• 28 equivalent feet of pipe for the elbows (7x 4)

Add these for the total equivalent length of pipe = 173

• In the friction loss charts, find the loss of head for

173 feet of 1 1/4” pipe at 16 gpm. (3.96 per 100’) = 3.96 x 1.73 = 6.8 (round to 7.0)

Add: 7 Friction loss

100 Pumping level

139 60 PSI service pressure required (60 x 2.31=138.6. Round to 139)

= 246 Total Dynamic Head.

From this sample curve we would choose the

1 1/2 HP pump.

Locate a pump with a best efficiency point near the desired flow rate (16 GPM) that meets the total head requirements (246 TDH).

Selecting a pump in this manner gives you the most efficient pump for your application.
