Phase Perfect, Digital Phase Converter, PT-020
SKU #:
193030
Catalog #:
1600-9336
Model: PT020 - Three-phase power from a single-phase source for 20HP / 64amp loads.
New for Fall 2019, the updated Phase Perfect® is a patented phase converting technology that supplies three-phase power from a single-phase source to power inductive, resistive and capacitive loads with distinct advantages over any existing converter technology. Utilizing the latest advances in solid state technology the Phase Perfect delivers its high quality power with remarkable efficiency (98.7%). The PT020 only consumes 80 Watts of power when in standby mode, and is easily installed with an included wall mount kit.
The Phase Perfect® phase converter has an input stage with electronic power factor correction, producing true, near unity power factor. The input current is sinusoidal with very low harmonic content. The output signal passes through an LC filter which blocks the high frequency harmonics from entering the load, producing a sinusoidal output with no external filtering required. A digital signal processor (DSP) monitors the process to generate balanced voltages and currents and to protect the load. Its many integrated features allow customers to avoid add-on costs associated with other phase converter technologies.

Power Quality
The Phase Perfect® produces true sinusoidal three-phase output voltages balanced to within <2% under all load conditions. Because the output voltage is a sinewave with low harmonic distortion, all types of three-phase equipment can be safely powered. Input current is true sinusoidal, near unity (.99) power factor and does not produce harmonics which can pollute the power grid.
Regenerative Power Capability
The Phase Perfect® Digital Phase Converter handles regenerative power by passing clean, balanced power back onto the singlephase line when three-phase loads are in a generating mode. Most other power switching converters waste regenerative power by burning it up with braking resistors. Putting regenerative power back onto the line saves electrical power and even allows the Phase Perfect to operate continuously as a three-phase to single-phase converter.
Versatility
The Phase Perfect® can safely power virtually any three-phase application within its rated capacity. It can power resistive and capacitive loads as well as motor or inductive loads. Its power quality makes it ideal for powering demanding loads such as CNC machine equipment, submersible pumps and other voltage sensitive applications. The Phase Perfect PT Series can operate with either 50 or 60Hz input.
Easy Installation & Operation
The Phase Perfect® is available with built-in contactor and an optional adjustable solid state overload relay, which allows it to function as a motor starter for most single-motor applications. It also has a control circuit and terminals, which allows an external switch to control both the converter and the load. Installation is straightforward and simple and can usually be accomplished in minutes with a minimum of additional equipment required.
Economy
Utility three-phase service can cost thousands of dollars to install, even when three-phase lines are nearby. The Phase Perfect® is an affordable alternative that provides better phase balance than most utilities will specify for their service. It also protects three-phase equipment from damage due to under-voltage, over-voltage and single-phasing that can occur with AC mains power. It is intentionally designed to rugged, reliable and is 98.7% efficient.
