Pump Sizing
 
The SubDrive300 is confi gured at the factory for use with 3 Hp pumps that 
are mounted to 5 Hp Franklin Electric three-phase motors. 
In general, the 
SubDrive300 will enhance the performance of a 3 Hp pump to a similar 
or better performance than a conventional 5 Hp pump of the same 
fl owrating (pump series).
To select the proper 3 Hp
pump, fi rst choose a 5 Hp
curve that meets the
application’s head and fl ow
requirements. Use the 3 Hp
pump in the same pump 
series (fl ow rating). The 
SubDrive300 will adjust the 
speed of this pump to 
produce the performance 
of the 5 Hp curve. An 
example of this is
illustrated in the graph at right.
Drive Confi guration
The SubDrive300 can also be set up to run a 5 Hp pump if desired, but the 
larger pump will still produce to the 5 Hp curve and may only be operated 
with a 5 Hp motor. To operate a different pump size, a DIP switch must be 
positioned to select the correct pump rating. Otherwise, the SubDrive300 
may trigger erroneous faults.
To confi gure the SubDrive300
for a 5 Hp pump, locate the DIP
switch marked “SW1” at the 
lower right corner of the main
circuit board. Use a small 
screwdriver (provided)
to change the DIP switch
setting according to the chart
as shown.
 WARNING
!
Serious or fatal electrical shock may result from contact with internal 
electrical components. DO NOT, under any circumstances, attempt 
to modify DIP switch settings until power has been removed and 5 
minutes have passed for internal voltages to discharge!
