Introduction
This Section describes the applicability of the Manual.
The iQpump (P7U) is a Pulse Width Modulated Drive for 3-Phase AC induction motors. This type of drive is also
known as an Adjustable Frequency Drive, Variable Frequency Drive, AC Drive, AFD, ASD, VFD, and Inverter.
The iQpump (P7U) is a variable torque AC drive, designed specifically for Simplex and Multiplex pumping
applications. The pump applications include Booster Systems, Submersible Deep Well, Fluid Storage Tanks,
Metering Pumps, Commercial and Residential Irrigation Systems.
The iQpump (P7U) sets a new benchmark for size, cost, performance, ease-of-use benefits, comprehensive pump and
motor protection features, and quality. The iQpump (P7U) includes numerous built-in features such as H/O/A
Operation, Selectable Pump Control Engineering Units, PI Control, Pump Basic Control, Pump Protection, Multi-
Pump Control (Lead / Lag), and Pump Messaging Terminology.
The LCD keypad / operator is equipped with Hand / Off / Auto functions, copy feature, and 5 lines of display with 16
characters per line.
Built-in PI and pump specific functions and parameters allow the operator to setup specific control values for a wide
range of applications. The iQpump (P7U) will optimize the pump performance by automatically adjusting the pump
controller based on operating conditions of the pump; such as, process variable changes and pump protection
requirements. The P Group programming parameters are dedicated for pumping applications and provide for ease of
setup.
The iQpump (P7U) drive offers energy savings by controlling the flow rate and the number of operating pumps on the
system. The iQpump (P7U) can be configured using the most popular system control configurations including
Simplex, Duplex, and Triplex pumps systems. The iQpump (P7U) is the master controller with the ability to add
additional pumps on-line by controlling the digital I/O to each individual motor starter.
The iQpump (P7U) has an optional feature to replace the motors starters with additional drives for a more precise
pump control system.
