Phase Convertors
We feature phase converters manufactured by Phasemaster and Arco Electrical Products
For agriculture professionals working in a rapidly growing area where electrical facilities have not kept pace with demand, or in an area where distance has made the cost of extending three-phase power lines prohibitive, phase converters may be the best solution. Phasemaster and Arco manufacture high-performing rotary-type phase converters that produce three phase electrical power from a single-phase source, which allows for the operation of three-phase equipment at a site with single-phase electrical service. The Phasemaster and Arco rotary-type phase converters we offer are superior to static phase converters, which are not true multi-motor converters and are designed to operate on only one motor of equal horsepower.
Phasemaster phase converter highlights include:
- Prewired for ease of installation
- Oil-type capacitors that provide power factor correction for an entire system
- Lower costs due to highest horsepower capacity-for-dollar invested
- True three-phase power with each sine wave 120° apart
- Provides power to any combination of motors of varying speed, duty, and cycle while operating individually, simultaneously, intermittently, or continuously
- No service-prone parts such as contactors, relays, centrifugal switches, electrolytic capacitors, or time delay devices
- No adjustment, regulation, or motor phase balancing required
- Can be used in a wide variety of applications
- Ability to function as a device for the regulation of voltage
- High starting capability
- Options include circuit protectors, high starting torque paks, power paks, and lightning arresters
- Complete wiring diagram included
Arco Electric Roto-Phase phase converters are a high-performance substitute for a solid three phase line when a phase generator is needed. Like the Phasemaster, the Roto-Phase is versatile, cost-efficient, dependable, well-designed, and easy to install. We are proud to offer the full Arco Roto-Phase product line:
- Standard Duty Roto-Phase for economical three-phase power
- Heavy Duty Roto-Phase II for powering tougher applications such as grain dryers
- Light Duty Roto-Phase III for easy starting applications
- Center pivot for irrigation
- CNC Roto-Phase for CNC machinery
- HDH Roto-Phase for hoist and trolley applications
- Automatic Roto-Phase for 3-phase sewer lift stations, water pressure systems, close-coupled, turbine and submersible pumps-variable speed, constant speed, or SCR
- SP Series Roto-Phase for submersible pumps
- Current Limiting Roto-Phase for situations where sophisticated equipment or larger motors may drain the power supply
- ELV Series Roto-Phase for freight and passenger elevators
- TM Series Roto-Phase for operating 3-phase radio and television equipment
