PT-3160 Digital Phase Converter Product Specifications

Phase Converter PT-3160Phase 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.

REGENERATIVE POWER CAPABILITY
Phase Perfect converters handle regenerative power by passing clean, balanced power back onto the single-phase line when three-phase loads are in a generating mode. Most other power switching converters waste regenerative power by burning it up with braking resistors. Putting regenerative power back onto the line saves electrical power and even allows Phase Perfect to operate continuously as a three-phase to single-phase converter.

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.
