    AC Motor - 120v to 220v static conversion problem

    As I have found in further investigation, i was able to determine that it comes down to more of the age of my motor. There was a tag on the motor saying the last inspection time was in 1971. Figuring that the motor is maybe another 10 years older than that, it wasn't mechanically made to...

    Phase Converters: Rotary vs. Rectifier/Inverter

    I am having a similar issue on exacly what goes on with the conversion. As i understand it, there are two types as you talked about: Rotary and Static. Static can be anything though just about. AC to DC back to AC in three phase, or a direct AC to AC (through a cycoloconverter). The issue...

    AC Motor - 120v to 220v static conversion problem

    I'm currently working on a senior project that consists of a frequency controlled AC motor that statically converts 120vac out of the wall to 220vac three phase required for the motor. It is a 1/3 HP, 208vac, 2.4A, 1.35SF, 1720 RPM motor. The frequency driver says it is capable for 2.6A 208vac...
