I have purchased a second hand Deckel which is 380 volt 3 phase and I wonder if anyone can advise if it is possible to run this unit from an appropriate inverter providing 220 volt 3 phase?
Ian Hi You have a 'Continental' 3 phase unit. It is marked 380 Volts 3 Phase. On the Continong they calculate thr RMS voltage slightly different to us. We will say 440 Volts 3 phase they will say 380 volts 3 phase. I know it is confusing but It is the same blooming stuff.
Your single phase is 240 Volt over here is 230 Volts.
Hi Ian, you will need to change the motor from star to delta wiring to runn off a 220v inverter. Check if your terminal box has the appropriate jumper strips, if you're not sure what to look for, look here: http://www.drivesdirect.co.uk/how_to_choose.htm
