What I think is weird is that this was bought as a quickpak, so why would Franklin send a subdrive150 box, if it only called for a subdrive75 box? I will ask my Franklin guy if he has an older catalog on pdf, that way I can post it on here.
Valveman, I think that's why Franklin tried to make the sub drive so simple. A lot of installers were and are intimidated by vfd drives. At the national level it is disturbing how many installers do not know how to properly diagnose pump problems. They just replace parts until it works again, kind of like car mechanics do now days.
It is suprising how many installers don't know how to properly use a multi-meter and have never even heard of a megger.
Most of my VFD sales are driven by customers who insist on them. I point out the advantages of the CSV, but most still want the VFD. at least I got both of my distributors to start stocking the CSV for me.
You know you're in trouble when tech support doesn't know what you're talking about.
I'll take a pressure switch, dumb pump and a decent sized tank any day of the week.
Old fashioned? You bet!
Hell, I'd drive a model A Ford if they were a bit more comfortable and had a/c and Sirius radio....
After a week, the problem has returned. Amazing how it only happens on weekends. No change in switch settings. This time, the pressure decreased to 20 (normal 50) then to zero for a few minutes. Then returned to normal. Still has 10 flashes. Does this sound like a pump problem?It may have been an undocumented code, but it is interesting that the indication cleared when an actual problem was fixed. (post #16)
This is awkward, but...
