Issue:
Can I upgrade an E-Flex to a larger drive size by changing the ATV61 drive?

Product:
E-Flex

Environment:
All

Cause:
Can I change drive from an 25hp to a 30hp, for a 30hp rating?

Resolution:
No, not recommended. The E-Flex is designed for the horsepower rating it was order for.
Other E-Flex components and certifications must be considered. This would include wire size, breaker size, contactors (if bypass).
This would void the warranty and the UL listing.  This could also cause component failures due to excessive heat dissipation.
