The single phase inverter actually does more than just convert from 1 phase power to 3 phase power supply. The inverter controls the output waveform to allow the speed to be controlled by changing the frequency to the motor from 0-200Hz.
Speed control can be manually using the controls provided or remote speed potentiometer. A Pressure control system can be easily achieved using the single phase inverters internal PID control and an external pressure transducer. Refer to the instruction manual for comprehensive details on installation, in particular using screened motor cables.
This paper is intended to be a general guide only for the installation of single phase frequency inverters on single phase power supplies. The two supply voltages discussed will include 220V (230V, 240V) and 480V Single Wire Earth Return (SWER) systems.
Since the inverter acts as an inverter and produces a 3 Phase power supply from a 1 Phase supply, the current is expected to be higher on the input then the output. It is therefore important to determine what level of supply current is required for the intended motor.
