Rotary phase converter plans

(1/1)

Hello guys and girls ' a big ask I know but dose anyone have plans for a Drives Direct  rotary phase converter.
I know they sell a kit but my wife works for a company that makes large agricultural control panels and would have most of the parts hanging about.
I dare say someone from there could design one for me if push came to shove but I'm just trying to simplify things.
Cheers ,Jonny

a quick hunt on google came up with these simple plans and info  http://www.waterfront-woods.com/Articles/phaseconverter.htm

only skimed through but looks about right, I don't remember much else being in the one I pulled apart last year

edit:  just remembered there was also a step up transformer used to give 415V output

Thanks for your help guys  I will speak to someone at my wife's work .

I'm currently using a Clarke pc60 phase converter on my Colchester student with a 3hp duel speed motor . Been using this for about 4-5 years and up to recently was impressed but think it's slowly dying . It was always struggled to start on the highest speed but now it getting sluggish on the lower speeds.
Cheers , Jonny.

Does it need to be a rotary phase converter?
There are some affordable VFD's on inverter drive.com
