Phase Converters...
TURN SINGLE PHASE INTO THREE
PHASE ELECTRICITY! |

HOW WE SIZE PHASE CONVERTERS:
|
| ROTARY PHASE CONVERTERS: Full load 3-phase current (FLA) is
represented by the Max. Amps in the tables. For running loads,
figure a +/-5% voltage balance at 50% (FLA) load and +/-10% at 75% (FLA).
For starting, figure at least one size up from load hp for a light load, 2
times larger for a hard load, and 3 times for an extremely hard
load. Converter must be additionally oversized for multiple speed
motors, older motors (pre-T-frame), foreign motors, and custom
motors. Always consult our technical sales staff for sizing help,
especially for multiple motors, CNC loads, mixed loads of resistive and
motor loads, and other complex loads. |
| STATIC PHASE CONVERTERS:
Motor should fall within the hp range of the static phase converter.
However, if the motor is not a standard 1700-1800 RMP T-frame motor, use
the weight equivalent of a modern T-frame motor. This will be useful
in sizing older motors, foreign motors, and custom motors. Direct
motor loads only, no 2 or 3 speed motors, no controls that use a 3 lines,
no multiple motor loads. |
