About Phase Converters
Phase converters transform single-phase power into three-phase power for the operation of industrial motors, pumps, and other equipment. A 3-phase converter is a rotating machine, much like a motor, that converts single-phase utility power into three-phase electricity to operate three-phase equipment. Typically, phase converters are used when utility-supplied three-phase power is unavailable, or three-phase machinery is too expensive to install. A single-phase to 3-phase power converter is often used in remote or rural areas, or when the cost of a three-phase extension is prohibitive. Single-phase to three-phase phase converters have a wide range of applications. A three-phase motor is thee main component and the available supply is single-phase. A high power induction motor drive that uses a classical three-phase converter has the disadvantage of poor voltage and current qualities.
A rotor phase converter is the most flexible and reliable type of phase converter that produces true 3-phase power to run any type of load or combination of motors. The most important part of a rotary phase converter is the idler motor, which typically has no mechanical load connected to its shaft. Since applying single-phase power to a three-phase motor will not start rotation, a method of starting the rotation of the idler motor is necessary. Static phase converters can be used for the starting and running of a three-phase motor on single-phase power. These devices produce only the third leg of power during the startup of electric motors.
