Hi all, hoping for some help with vfd options. I have a 5hp Colombo spindle t-box older model with a vfd-b delta model vfd037b23a (3ph in and 3ph out - picture below). I need to find a new vfd that will work off of single phase input since I will be running the machine at a residential site. The residence is supplied with 240v and has option for either 30amp or 40amp breaker use. My plan is to run an extension cord (about 40 feet) from the plug with this breaker and voltage to the garage when I run the machine. Not ideal but my only option in the short term at this time.
Does anybody have opinions or thoughts on best vfd boxes for this application? I’m hoping to avoid a phase converter and just switch the vfd out. I’m looking at yaskawa and delta mostly. Saw some older strings on here but looking for any current thoughts. Thanks all!
