i just order new VFD and 2,2KW spindle, i need know what cable i need 230V 1-phase wall socket to VFD cable AWG and fuse size 16Amp maybe need, and VFD to spindle cable 3 phase+ground. shield or not ? power to wall have 230V 16Amp, VDF is 2,2KW 220V in 1-phase, 220V out 3-phase. spindle 3.phase 2,2KW motor. need know cable size, power cable need be 13AWG because supply have 220C/16A, but what need be VFD to spindle motor ? 3-phase 2.2KW motor.

Hello, I’m not sure I fully understand your question. But, just be sure to find the “full load amp” (FLA) rating for your spindle and multiply it by 1.73. Use this value to determine proper AWG and breaker to supply the VFD. (12AWG is suitable for up to 20 amps.) The same AWG should work for connecting the spindle to the VFD. I honestly don’t know if you need shielded cable or not, but if in doubt, it won’t hurt anything to use shielded cable. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for the video, I was able to get a 3-phase jump saw working using the 5HP HY VFD. I was even able to wire up the old momentary start/stop switches and emergency stop by programming the three communication ports to correspond to the Run, Stop, and Emergency commands. What's great is the VFD will be able to function with either an "NO" or "NC" momentary switch, and it works the same with either style. The saw was previously in a 460v factory directly wired to the industrial 3-phase supply, so instead I re-wired the motor to the low voltage 230v configuration and hooked the motor directly up to the VFD, bypassing the old relay and fuse setup that the saw came with. The VFDs are really awesome, having all the switching built into the unit is great, but it's even better that it has the com ports that are programmable to like 30 different functions you can control with external switches. In my case I only needed start/stop/emergency because it's just a jump saw. I did set my PD014/15 acceleration time to 10s because the saw blade is 14" and I'm hoping the longer time is easier on the motor and belt. By the way, to anybody wondering if they can power a 230v motor when the documentation says the VFD is 220v, you certainly can! Just make sure you set your Pd008 to 230, and make sure that your input voltage is 230v or higher on the lines as measured at the VFD, because the VFD can't step up your voltage, but it can transform down if it needs to, for example if you have 240v at your panel like I did. Also, I used stranded copper 14AWG for the communication wires which may have been overkill but they did fit well, and I used solid copper 10AWG for the power supply and motor supply wires, which were a tight fit. Granted my motor is only rated for 12A, but 10AWG is what I had on hand and it worked.

To start/stop the motor in either forward or reverse, all that is needed is a single pole double throw (SPDT) toggle switch. Connect the common terminal of the switch to the DCM port on the VFD. (Time 8:20 in the video) Connect the forward port (FOR) on the VFD to one of the remaining terminals on the switch and connect the reverse (REV) port to the other terminal. This should allow you to flip the switch one way to start the motor in forward, and flip it the opposite way for reverse. To control the speed with a potentiometer, reference the video linked in the description of this video. Thanks for watching!

Question : why wouldnt you have set upright stud walls between the posts or bookshelf girts , same smount of wood..? Less air gaps , tighter fit, interior as well as exterior ready for walls
@southerningenuity4458
@southerningenuity4458 Ай бұрын
I wasn't trying to construct the shop with the intention of keeping it climate controlled, so the insulation requirements weren't as critical. The girts are on the outside of the posts for several reasons. They are 20 foot 2x6s that each span 3 posts. (connecting to a post at 0, 10, and 20 ft) Then each row is offset by 1 post so that the joints don't all line up on the same post. This gives the building more strength. Also, by putting the girts on the outside, it allowed me to fully encase the posts in concrete so they would not be directly exposed to the ground, critters, and water. There is 3 inches of concrete between the post and the ground at ground surface level. This is 1-1/2 inches to make up for the thickness of the girt, plus an additional 1-1/2 inches that makes a notch for the metal to sit in to prevent water and critter intrusion. The girt placement also provided space to run the electrical wiring without having to drill holes in the posts. The studs for the OSB interior walls are connected to the first 3 rows of girts, and the OSB is flush with the posts on the inside. Wow! I got a little long winded there. Hope that answered your question. Thanks for watching!

It seems to work well on my compressor. I opened the manual valve yesterday and only a few drops came out. But, my compressor may only cycle on and off a few times a week. If it were used in a busy shop coming on and off many times in a day, then this unit may not be able to evacuate all of the condensate. Thanks for watching.

I would think so, if sized correctly. You must start and stop the motor via the drive itself by either the buttons on the front panel, or by an external switch (something like I have on my machine in the video). It's not recommended to put any switching device(s) between the motor and the power outputs on the drive. Thanks for watching!

I don't think there's a 100% way to stop water from penetrating, if you run into some stagnant water problems sitting in there over the years you might want to unseal the bottom of the lower side of the riser to allow water to drain during dry times to kill off any growth or bugs.

Check parameter PD072. Several others have had a similar issue and PD072 had to be adjusted. It controls the upper limit for your HZ when using a pot for speed control. PD073 will set the lower limit. So for example, if you wanted the motor to run at 20hz with the pot turned all the way down, and at 60hz with it turned all the way up, then set PD072 to 60 and PD073 to 20. Hope this helps.

This is great. Could you tell me what that valve stem is called? Is it fine to run those without a tube? Im in a predicament right now and i thight i would have to order a new tube and do the whole proceedure. Can i just keave the old tube inside the tire? I dont blame you if you dont ant to answer all these questions but God bless if you feel like being a tire counsellor.

@southerningenuity4458 2 ай бұрын
Try searching "air liquid valve stem", you should be able to find what you need. These particular stems are for tubeless tires, so if the rim and tire are rated for "tubeless" then you should be able to forgo the tube unless there is a hole in the tire or rim. It probably wouldn't hurt anything if you left the tube inside, but if I were replacing the valve stem, I would go ahead and remove the tube while the tire bead seal was broken. Hope this helps.

Rubbed up against a downed log that was close to the road and it snapped off my tire stem. I heard the air coming out of it and my heart sank. I took off the mower and limped it home to the barn, jacked it up off that poor tire and thought, now what? I'm new to a tractor and don't have all the knowledge or equipment to do all the maintenance myself, but I'm eager to learn. So I went looking for how to change a stem on a tractor tire and found your video. First thing I said was where'd he get that bead breaker? I never saw one before and that thing is slick! I also never heard of putting water in your tires, only the oil they offer to put in at the dealer when you buy the tractor (for one hell of a lot of money)! I passed on it but kind of regretted it because I sure could use a lot more ballast. So why do they put oil in tractor tires instead of water? Seems like it might rust or something? I'd love to hear more about that if it works because I sure could use more ballast on my tractor, and if I can just fill it up with water that would be fine with me! How do you know how much to put in? Then I assume that you just put additional air in to get it up to the right pressure? Hey thanks for making this video. I learned a lot!
@southerningenuity4458
@southerningenuity4458 2 ай бұрын
Wow, I've never heard of putting oil in the tires, but I have heard of putting beet juice or windshield washing fluid. Perhaps the oil is heaver than water? As far as the water causing rust in the tire, I'm sure it will rust eventually, but I have never seen a rusty tint to the water in my tires, and they have had water in them for over 20 years now. When you put the water in the tire, rotate the tire until the valve stem is straight up top (12 o'clock position). Jack the tractor up to take pressure off of the tire and remove the valve core. (You can buy those water addition adapters at Tractor Supply.) Connect a garden hose to the adapter and turn on the water. As the water starts to fill the tire, it will start to compress the air that is still inside. You will need to turn the water off periodically and bleed the pressurized air from the tire. Make sure to do this often to avoid over pressurizing/exploding the tire. (My rear tire lists a max operating pressure of 20 psi. Standard household water pressure can easily be 40 to 55 psi). Keep doing this until the water gets up to the level of the valve stem. You will know the water is above the correct level when a steady stream of water comes out while bleeding the pressure. If so, let the water continue to bleed out until it gets below the valve stem and air starts coming out again. Then reinstall the valve core and pressurize the tire to the correct air pressure. If you live up north where the temperatures get really cold for long periods of time, you might want to consider putting antifreeze in with the water. (That's another challenge in itself. When I replaced the stem on my other tire, I poured a gallon of antifreeze inside before they resealed the tire bead. Then I added the water when I got home.) Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
