What Ships and What It Needs to Run

Included: the MagForce motor, or the motor and drive on System builds, per the order number shown.

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.

Drive required. MagForce motors run only from a Franklin variable frequency drive (SubDrive Connect Plus or Cerus X-Drive) programmed for the PM motor; System builds include it.

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

Overview

Each MagForce High Efficiency System is powered with a permanent magnet motor that operates at a fraction of the energy consumption when compared to traditional induction systems. Plus, each system is paired with an innovative Franklin Electric engineered drive for intuitive startup and reliable protection for submersible pumping application.

  • GROUNDBREAKING EFFICIENCY: Powered by MagForce High Efficiency Motor with 90% efficiency rating that is 10-12% greater than standard induction motor construction. Typical duty rate systems can have a payback* of 1 to 2 years.
  • SIMPLIFIED INVENTORY MANAGEMENT: Three motor sizes cover pump horsepower ranging from 7.5 to 60. Fewer SKUs simplify your inventory.
  • SLASH ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION: Since the motor has rare earth magnets, there is less electrical energy loss, which translates into greater power output per dollar spent on power input. This saves operational costs every time the motor is run; the more it is used, the more can be saved.
  • SMALLER FOOTPRINT: Lighter and easier to handle than standard induction motors and, like all submersible motor systems, provides a smaller above ground footprint when compared to other pumping solutions.
  • BUILT TOGETHER TO WORK TOGETHER: All components come from a single source for the ultimate in operational compatibility and optimized operation.

12-Month Franklin Electric Warranty

Franklin warrants its products for 12 months from the date of installation, but no more than 24 months from the date of manufacture. Franklin states the motor warranty can be extended to 3 years with Franklin overload-protection controls, and is void if Franklin-supplied leads are not used.
