Description and Features
The Franklin Electric SubDrive300 is a dependable residential and light
commercial water system controller that uses advanced electronics to
enhance the performance of standard submersible pumps. When used with
the speci ed Franklin Electric motor (see Table 1), the SubDrive eliminates
pressure cycling associated with conventional water well systems and
owners of private water well systems can enjoy “city-like” water pressure.
In addition, the reduced tank size (see Table 3) allows installation in small
spaces. Key features of the SubDrive include:
Constant water pressure with a wide range of settings (25-80 psi)
Smaller pressure tank can be used
Fits the pump to the application – pump speed is controlled to
provide the optimum performance without overloading the motor
Flexibility – you can use this unit with standard off-the-shelf pumps
No in-rush (power-on transient) current
Low motor start-up current (soft-starting)
Active Power Factor Correction minimizes input RMS current
