VFD 220V 2.2KW

Installation information is included in the manual. You must program the unit for your specific motor then program your other parameters as desired. This unit has a lot of programming options for any use.

I am making a 72 inch belt sander with a 3phase 230v motor. I purchased this VFD because we do not have 3 phase at home. I did some serching around and did not find anny pertinent information on how to configure it. I got intouch with the vendor via Amazon sent a photo of the plate on my motor and the next day I recieved a notification with instructions on how to configure it.Worked perfectly.

This drive has been running my bench top mill for almost one year. More than half the time after pushing the stop button the motor does not stop. It will slow down and ramp up on its own, but won’t stop. When it does this the only way to make it stop is to turn off the breaker feeding the drive.Requested a replacement multiple times to no avail. The experience with customer service was akin to running in circles.Not impressed.

For the price you can’t beat it. I did have to try twice before I got a good one but I’ve been using it to power my Bridgeport mill and have had no issues.

I'm using this to get a Boss3 mill running with LinuxCNC. I'm able to get it to run the spindle manually (using the panel), and just today I was able to get the computer to make it run over RS-485. The documentation leaves out the setting for the baud rate. FD-00 -> 0:300, 1:600, 2:1200, 3:2400, 4:4800, 5:9600, 6:19200, 7:38400, 8:57600, 9:115200Also not documented: 1000H sets the speed. You wire a value between 0 an d10,000 to get between 0% and 100% of the speed range set by the MaxLow and MaxHigh frequency registers.The device only implements commands 3 (read a single register) and 6 (write a single register) of the protocol (unless there is more of the documentation that is missing).As stated above. I've been able to get it to run the spindle over RS-485. I've also been able to get it to run in reverse. Sending 1 or 2 to address 2000H, respectively. Initially, I was unable to get it to stop. Once I ran the communication wires through a ferrite bead (I made two loops), It worked find.I've not yet worked on reading the status registers.My configuration file for mb2hal in LinuxCNC is:# ++++++++++++++++++++++++# Common section# ++++++++++++++++++++++++[MB2HAL_INIT]INIT_DEBUG=3SLOWDOWN=0.0TOTAL_TRANSACTIONS=3# ++++++++++++++++++++++++# Transactions# ++++++++++++++++++++++++[TRANSACTION_00]LINK_TYPE=serialSERIAL_PORT=/dev/ttyACM0SERIAL_BAUD=9600SERIAL_BITS=8SERIAL_PARITY=noneSERIAL_STOP=2SERIAL_DELAY_MS=20MB_SLAVE_ID=1FIRST_ELEMENT=8192PIN_NAMES=target_stateMB_TX_CODE=fnct_06_write_single_registerMB_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS=500MB_BYTE_TIMEOUT_MS=500HAL_TX_NAME=spindle_setMAX_UPDATE_RATE=0.0[TRANSACTION_01]FIRST_ELEMENT=4096PIN_NAMES=target_speedMB_TX_CODE=fnct_06_write_single_registerHAL_TX_NAME=spindle_speed[TRANSACTION_02]FIRST_ELEMENT=12288PIN_NAMES=current_stateMB_TX_CODE=fnct_03_read_holding_registersHAL_TX_NAME=spindle_read
