CNC-Phase Converters
CNC-phase converters are used
to provide a balanced
voltage for sensitive
machines like computer
operation and CNC equipment.
These converters have a
power conditioning to
produce lower harmonic
distortion and a smooth
sine wave form to ensure
protection against changing
power loads. The CNC-phase
converters, in some
instances, can produce a
better supply and more
balanced load than the
utility companies. CNC-phase
converters maintain at
least a +/-5% voltage
balance.
The CNC-phase converters
protect your sensitive
equipment against power
surges or any other power
outages that you may have.
They
provide harmonic balance,
which is so important in
running your computer
circuitry and CNC machinery.
One of the most important
factors when you are
purchasing your phase converter is
that you should always double the horsepower
of the motor or equipment to
guarantee trouble-free
operation. Also, it is not a
good idea to operate any
other equipment other then
the CNC equipment at the
same time. The feedback from
the other equipment will
sometimes cause the voltage
to be unstable for the CNC
equipment. The
practical solution to operate
each piece of equipment at the
same time without any voltage
variance to the sensitive CNC
equipment is to isolate the
power line for each machine or
have multiple isolate sources
of power independently.
This is easy to do with proper
planning.
A CNC-phase converter that is
manufactured with high
quality materials can
operate for over 45 years
without any serious
problems. When choosing your
CNC-phase converter, make
sure you pick a reliable,
quality manufacturer like
ACE or TEMCo.
The following chart compares
each manufacturer based on a phase
converter for a
10HP motor. We rated each
company with a one to five
star rating, five stars being the highest
and one star the
lowest.
*Compared models that use active generators
and found that they are higher
quality - this rating is not
for lesser quality converters
using electric motors.
Also, models rated on the materials
used to manufacturer the
phase converters.

Manufacturer
Review

gives more details on how
ratings are determined.
In our findings,
ACE
Phase Converters
rated the highest because
they manufacturer a true
three-phase converter.
Their phase converters were
durable and manufactured
with high quality materials,
and their ten-year warranties
on their products were
outstanding. Pricing was
excellent comparably in the
market place.
