G.3 Well Draw Down Function

3. Connect Level Transducer to the iQpump Drive

Most depth level transducers provide a 4 ~ 20 mA current signal. The A1 Terminal of the iQpump drive is calibrated for voltage-based
feedback at 0 ~ 10 Vdc. Installing a burden resistor simplifies the process of converting the current-based feedback to voltage-based
feedback.

The burden resistor should be 250 Ohms rated for a minimum of 1/4 W and a tolerance range of less than or equal to 1%. It is possible to
use different Ohm values if a burden resistor of exactly 250 Ohms is not available, however the gain and bias settings of the iQpump
drive must be adjusted accordingly.

Resistors can be purchased at most electronic stores, online, or through catalogues. Locate the necessary resistor value in

Table G.2

below and match that to the correct gain (H3-02) and bias (H3-03) setting for that value.

Table G.2 Resistor Values and Gain/Bias Settings

The burden resistor is installed onto drive Terminal A1 to AC (analog common) see

Figure G.3
