4. Do not expose a Artesian Drive to rain or water spray. For

outdoor installations, place the drive inside a NEMA 3R

5. The Artesian Drive should only be mounted with the wiring

end oriented downward. The controller should not be placed
in direct sunlight or other locations subject to extreme
temperatures or humidity (mounting location should not be
subjected to freezing conditions or condensation).

6. The mounting location should have access to 230 VAC

electrical supply and to the pump motor wiring. To avoid
possible interference with other appliances, please refer to
the enclosed Installation Guide and observe all precautions
regarding power cable routing.

A 10-foot section of cable is provided with the Artesian Drive
to connect the pressure sensor.
NOTE:

Maximum allowable wire lengths are measured between
the controller and motor.

Aluminum wires should not be used with the Artesian
Drive.

Wire sizing between the service entrance and the control-
ler must be sufficient to provide the required maximum
input amps to the controller while conforming to local
standards and codes.

Artesian Drive minimum breaker amps may appear to
exceed specifications for the three-phase motor because
Artesian Drive controllers are supplied from a single-
phase service rather than three-phase.

Pressure tank

The Artesian Drive needs only a small pressure tank to main-
tain constant pressure (see table below for recommended
