What Ships and What It Needs to Run

Included: the submersible motor. Franklin lists the lead arrangement for each build (DOL 3-lead or Y-Delta 6-lead) in the Models & Performance table.

Replacement and longer leads: on our motor leads listing. Franklin voids the motor warranty if Franklin-supplied leads are not used.

Pump end required, ordered separately. A pump end of the same horsepower that fits this motor diameter. Couplings are on our couplings and accessories listing.

Control required, ordered separately. single-phase 6 in motors must be used with a Franklin control box (Franklin 3-wire control box); three-phase motors need a magnetic starter with quick-trip overloads or a drive such as the Franklin X-Drive SUB panel.

Drop cable and splice kit: sized to your setting depth and ordered separately.

Overview

These motors are built for dependable operation in 6 in diameter or larger water wells.

Before You Buy — The Limits That Decide the Fit
  • Continuous duty to 86 °F (30 °C) at 0.5 ft/sec flow past the motor; Standard 50-60 HP to 122 °F (50 °C); Hi-Temp 90 °C builds to 194 °F (90 °C).
  • Install in a 6 in diameter or larger well.
  • 316 stainless steel builds are for acid, low pH and seawater applications and include a SubTrol heat sensor.
  • All models are VFD compatible.
  • Use Franklin-supplied leads: Franklin voids the motor warranty otherwise. Size the cable from Franklin's AIM manual.
