GGuineafowl replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.Thanks! I did have CT surgery about ten years ago. This is more a side-issue of deep thenar pain, maybe tenosynovitis or basal joint...

GGuineafowl replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.I found some 1 mm##^2## magnet wire. My LCR meter (actually an ESR meter with L as a side function) is quite limited, so I ended up with...

GGuineafowl replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.Thanks - I’ll get on with building the inductors when I get a chance. I have adjusted the probes using the CAL terminal, and they were...

GGuineafowl replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.The ferrite toroids have arrived. Should they be wound with magnet wire, and what size, or could I use the existing rubber single flex...

GGuineafowl replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.Got it. Trace 1 to show CH1+CH2, invert 2 to get CH1-CH2.

GGuineafowl replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.Yes, it’s been two house moves since I last saw the Hameg manual. As I remember it, the ADD/CHOP button selects dualling options: ADD...

GGuineafowl replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.I’m not sure either of these have the subtract function, but willing to be corrected. My earthing is TN-S, ie N and E linked at the...

GGuineafowl replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.One final problem: the VFD output is mains-referenced, so connecting the probe across phases will trip the RCD. Unless the motor earth...

GGuineafowl replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.Cheap and cheerful, I’m afraid: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006427487406.html I have a Hameg HM203-5 20 MHz CRO, and a...

GGuineafowl replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.Thanks - I see the difference between an RC LPF and the snubber. I’ve ordered a 20-pack of ferrite rings at those dimensions, and have...

Informative.
Here is a crude first guess at what you need. It has max attenuation at VFD 3 kHz, 0 dB at 50 Hz. The motor model is a guess, now...
