Franklin Electric Co. has unveiled two control products for irrigation professionals: The newly launched SMS-RV SubMonitor Pump Soft Starter and Cerus X-Drive Low Harmonic Pump Panel.
SMS-RV SubMonitor Pump Soft Starter Panel
The SMS-RV panel integrates Franklin Electric’s SubMonitor Connect overload relay, offering smart motor protection and seamless automation readiness. This soft starter empowers users to extend motor life while maintaining optimal performance and control.
Cerus X-Drive Low Harmonic Pump Panel
Designed to meet IEEE-519 low harmonic standards, the Cerus X-Drive panel helps mitigate input distortions and supports grid compliance, reducing the risk of utility penalties.
