Constant Pressure Bore Pumps

Constant Pressure Bore Pumps

The Franklin Electric SubDrive QuickPAK consists of a Pump, Motor, Drive, Pressure tank and Sensor all in one ready-to-go package.

Constant pressure bore pumps are used mainly to supply water to the house and garden directly from the bore.

It uses a pressure sensor which detects water pressure, sending a signal to the controller which adjusts the pump speed.

Instead of the pump turning on and off when the pressure tank reaches a certain pressure, it keeps the pressure tank at one pressure level resulting in an endless steady water flow.

When the demand for water increases (you open a tap), the pump speed increases. When the demand for water decreases (you close a tap), the pump speed slows down. This eliminates the need for large pressure tanks which saves space.

SubDrive also eliminates pressure fluctuations during long running applications such as reticulation/irrigation systems.

The SubDrive controller include diagnostic features and built-in protection for conditions that would be harmful to the system.

This protection includes:

• Surge protection
• Underload
• Undervoltage
• Locked pump
• Open circuit
• Short circuit
• Overheated controller

• Residential Water Systems
• City-like water pressure
• Compact design saves space in garages and sheds
• Landscape Irrigation and Sprinkler Systems
• Even distribution of water in zones
• Eliminates need for separate system
• Water Treatment Systems
• More efficient back-flushing
• Eliminates need for multiple pumps
• Geothermal Heating Systems
