Got the VFD and motor hooked up this evening. Wow! VFDs are really cool! Thanks everyone for the advice. The SJ200 was a really good choice. The smallest AWG wire I could get from the hardware store was 12/4 SOOW which has to be complete overkill for a 2HP motor but oh well. I am still not clear if the motor I used, a Leeson 192074, is a 4 or 8 pole motor though. Is there an easy way to know? There are nine wires coming out of the motor. Three are connected together, then each pair of remaining wires connects to each of the three lines from the VFD. Does that make sense? |
