Page 15: Section 4 Operation
SECTION 4 OPERATION ELECTRICAL PERFORMANCE The TFC4000 Series Frequency Converters converts three-phase 115 VAC at 360 to 800 Hz into single-phase 115 VAC, 60 Hz (TFC4000) or 230 VAC, 50Hz, (TFC4002). The units are capable of providing 4000 VA (4 kW at power factor = 1) to power outlets that can support a variety of aircraft and consumer electronics and appliances including laptops, computer systems, TVs, vacuums, and many others (See Table 1.2 for tolerance ranges). - Page 16 4.2.5 Short Circuit and Over-Current The TFC4000 Series is capable of surviving a short circuit or over-current event without permanent damage or effect to long-term reliability. The unit can provide over its rated power output up to 125% of rating or 5000 VA continuously if the ambient is low enough not to trip the thermal protection.
