  • Page 7: Theory Of Operation

    THEORY OF OPERATION L1 and L2 of the single-phase input pass directly through the phase converter to provide two legs of the three-phase output. The input module charges a DC bus from the input lines. The output module uses power from the DC bus to generate the third leg of the three- phase output.

  • Page 19 Connecting Source Power Table 11 – Input Wiring Wire size recommendations based on 600 VAC copper wire, rated either 60°C or 75°C. Assuming 86°F (30°C) ambient and no more than 3 current carrying conductors in raceway or earth (directly buried). If phase converter will be in warmer environments, consult NEC Handbook for temperature correction factor.
  • Page 20: Wire Sizing

    Wire Sizing Use Table 11 to find minimum guidelines on properly sizing input conductors according to local electrical code. The voltage drop from the supply to the converter should be limited to 3% to ensure proper starting and operation of motor loads. Increase the wire gauge to provide adequate voltage to the load.

If installed, remove the factory installed jumper wire and replace with a switch.
  • Page 27 Figure 21 – Panel Shop Options WARNING! When the converter is turned OFF using a switch on the AUX terminals, dangerous voltage may still be present on the input lines and elsewhere inside the enclosure. Never open the enclosure or perform maintenance on the unit or connected loads when the incoming power to the phase converter is ON, regardless of the switch setting.

  • Page 29: Disable Auto-Restarts

    Disable Auto-Restarts WARNING: Load may restart automatically without warning when operating conditions permit. Disconnect power before servicing the convertor or connected loads. The factory default allows auto restarts for noncritical faults. Disable restarts by setting DIP switch 2 to the ON position – see Figure 24. After non-critical faults clear, the converter will automatically restart after a minimum 60 second delay.

    For 480V PTE models (PTE4XX), disconnect wires from JL2. You may need to remove the baffle covering the heatsink to access JL2. Next, use a multi-meter to measure between L1 and L2, then measure between L2 and JL3B. If either capacitance measured is below the 50% Capacitance value in Table 24, contact Phase Technologies for replacement.
