Phase Perfect®
Digital Phase Converters represent the ultimate technology
for converting single-phase electrical power to three-phase
electrical power. In fact, the three-phase power produced by
Phase Perfect®
is often superior in power quality to utility supplied
three-phase.
Phase Perfect®
utilizes the latest advances in solid state power switching
technology. Unlike
rotary phase converters, it does not rely
on a motor to generate a voltage. Proprietary software
controls power switching devices that generate 3-phase power
with much more digitally-derived precision and
efficiency. Its patented design makes it unlike any other
phase converter.
POWER QUALITY
Phase Perfect®
produces true sinusoidal 3-phase output voltages balanced to
within 1% under all load conditions. Because the output
voltage is a sine wave with very low harmonic distortion,
all types of 3-phase equipment can be safely powered.
Digital Converter input current is true sinusoidal, near
unity (.99) power factor and does not produce harmonics
which can pollute the power grid.
VERSATILITY
Phase Perfect®
can safely power virtually any 3-phase application within
its rated capacity. It can power resistive and capacitive
loads as well as motor or inductive loads. Its power quality
makes it ideal for powering demanding loads such as CNC
machine equipment, submersible pumps and other voltage
sensitive applications.
EASY INSTALLATION AND
OPERATION
Phase Perfect®
is available with built-in contactor and adjustable solid
state overload relay, which allows it to function as a motor
starter for most single-motor applications. It also has a
control circuit and terminals, which allows an external
switch to control both the converter and the
load. Installation is straightforward and simple and can
usually be accomplished in minutes with a minimum of
additional equipment required.
ECONOMY
Utility 3-phase service can cost thousands of dollars to
install, even when 3-phase lines are nearby. Phase Perfect® is an affordable alternative that provides better
phase balance than most utilities will specify for their
service. It also protects 3-phase equipment from damage due
to under-voltage, over-voltage and single-phasing that can
occur with AC mains power. Phase Perfect®
Digital Phase Converters are rugged, reliable and typically
97% efficient.
