Single Phase Converter Clean, Efficient Variable Speed Motor Control with Single-Phase Power The Single Phase Converter addresses the common issues with AC motors powered from single-phase input: • • • Limited single-phase motor options Inefficient use of power due to choppy current harmonics Increased maintenance of rotating parts and tuned circuits Yaskawa’s industry leading Single Phase Converter (SPC) cleanly converts single-phase AC power to DC power for Yaskawa variable frequency drives. The SPC marries Yaskawa reliability and drive technology with motor control solutions for businesses in remote areas. The SPC eliminates the need to oversize variable frequency drives for single-phase applications while reducing distortion to less than 10% iTHD. With lower input harmonics and near unity power factor, the SPC also eliminates the need to significantly oversize transformers in single-phase applications, reducing overall installation costs.
