In the middle of a 5 lug conv. all the prices I have seen are around 300 for redrilled rear hubs and thats plus core. so I started thinking and a drill press is only 200. Ques. is has anyone ever tried this? I presume all one needs is alot of time on setup and it cant be that tough.
Thoughts? |

Andrew, The VFD, is an inverter, it mimics the 3 different legs, what is nice is the controller can change the frequency, so instead of 60hz, I can slow down or speed up the motor with just a few clicks of a button the VFD cannot be used on transformers, it is only for motors. The static converters cheat by using resitors and caps, but they are really not a true 3phase. Rotary converters are basicly a 3phase motor that is turned into a generator to supply the 3phase, these work really well, but can get expensive and they suck up more electricity. |
