3-Phase Power Solutions

Rotary-Phase Converters

A Rotary Phase Conveters produces 3 phase electrical power from single phase electrical power.

A rotary-phase converter produces 3-phase electrical power from single-phase electrical power. Three-phase machinery has become very popular in the last decade because of its dependability and price. Also, large single-phase machinery is very hard to find in today’s market field. Rotary-phase converters have grown dramatically in the last century because of the lower economic cost of operating the equipment.

Utility companies usually supply single-phase service to residential, small and large businesses and remote farms and ranches. Having 3-phase power installed can be very expensive, and sometimes, it can take months before the utility companies can install it. A rotary-phase converter is an economical solution.


How does a Rotary-Phase Converter work?

A rotary-phase converter is a modified 3-phase motor that uses motor windings and a bank of capacitors to create a phase shift in the incoming power, as well as generates a third phase. The challenge of any phase converter is to have a balanced voltage load. Unbalanced 3-phase power can damage the equipment if it is meant to operate with a 3-phase power load.

 

Three Phase Power Solutions


Rotary-phase converters are the most popular type of  phase converters because they  provide a continuous, reliable source of power to more than one machine, and it is an excellent choice where a continuous source of 3-phase power is needed.

Not all rotary-phase converters are the same, many just convert unbalanced 3-phase power. High quality, heavy duty rotary-phase converters are built to last and are reliable.  They can be just as efficient as utility 3-phase power. We have found phase converters still working after 50 years. When choosing your phase converter, make sure you select a reliable, quality manufacturer like TEMCo or ACE Phase Converters.  Check out the options offered in Phase Converter models at these companies respective web sites.
