I had the same problem when I moved from Virginia (240 supply) to California industrial park (208 supply). ?The solution was a buck/boost transformer between the panel and the Phase Perfect. ?Phase Perfect actually sold me the transformer - about $100 in 2005.
All:
I need HELP. I moved my 7.35kw Dual 51 from a shop with 240V to a shop condo with 208V (two legs from a 3 phase utility supply to a single phase panel). ?The Dual runs on a Phase Perfect Phase converter. ?The Dual worked fine in the old shop but will not run in the new...it starts up but when it hits full speed it shuts down.
I called Felder and they said to change the transformer tap to +10 to make up for the 208 to 230. ?This did nothing...same issue. ?Now the recommendation is to replace the brake board as this handles the task from start to run modes. ?I have no confidence in that analysis as it worked just fine with 240V supply. ?In any case, since I am in the middle of a multi piece furniture production I absolutely must have the Dual operational. ?I ordered the brake board but want trouble shooting advice from some of the electrical experts that know Felder and frequent the FOG.
Help!!
Best, Terry
