Multi-Phases Introduction We thank you for purchasing this product manufactured by Thetford Armature Inc. This model is a high-end electric phase-converter, designed to provide electrical power to operate three-phase electric loads from a single-phase power source. Read this guide carefully Should you not understand any part of this guide, do not hesitate to contact us to be informed of the start-up, the operating and the maintenance procedures.
Multi-Phases 1.2-Connecting the device It is recommended to use a switch to start and stop the phase-converter and to use a junction box. A) Identify the A, B, and C terminals in the junction box (see Figure 1). B) Connect lines L1 and L2 of the single-phase power supply respectively to A and B terminals of the junction box.

Multi-Phases Figure 2 The three-phase power generated by the phase-converter has a voltage of 240-volt. A transformer must be used to obtain a di erent voltage . The recommended type of transformer is a Delta-Star transformer. WARNING NEVER CONNECT THE H0 or X0 OF A TRANSFORMER'S PRIMARY TO THIS EQUIPMENT.
Multi-Phases 2 Utilisation 2.1 Starting the phase-converter The phase-converter is started when the T1 and T2 terminals are energized by the single-phase input. Use of a switch is recommended. Sometimes the phase- converter does not start. When this occurs, simply turn the switch off and try again. If this situation persists, please contact your representative.
Multi-Phases 2.3 Do not OVERLOAD the phase-converter Overloading a phase-converter above its rated capacity can damage the phase- converter and the connected electrical devices. Respect the following instructions to avoid overloading the unit: - Calculate the total HP of all the electrical devices to be connected at the same time.
Thetford Armature Inc. will not repair nor replace the Multi-Phases and will not be liable for physical damage or personal injury resulting from an attempt (by the buyer, user or an unauthorized repair service) to repair, tune-up, assemble or alter any Multi-Phases, its electrical circuits, controls or other components.
