HUANYANG VFD Variable Frequency Drive,1 or 3 Phase Input, 3 Phase 0-400HZ Output, 4kW 5HP 220V 17A for Motor Speed Control,FC Series

The VFD arrived safely, the packaging was excellent. The hook-up/wiring was easy and painless. I'm using the VFD to power a 1960's era, 5hp DeWalt radial arm saw. There is an initial learning curve to the operation of the VFD.

Good VFD for the price. Also if you are using the 0-10V signal to drive the rpm be sure to change parameter P00.06 to a 2 as well. Took me awhile to find this. I think you have to put parameter P00.07 to a 0 to get it to work first.

First of all I really like the device. It is well engineered, has Modbus out of the box, can run 3phase motor on 2phase (split phase) utility power. However the size stated is too optimistic. It is marketed as 5HP, in picture #5 it says 4.7HP max, however it is able to run my 3HP motor for 4-5 minutes and then shutdowns with "Uv", which is "DC bus undervoltage" error and a very strong smell of BURN PLASTIC. What I think (speculation) that it can run 4.7HP motor only on 3 phase AC source, not 2 phase. In my understanding AC-DC rectifier bridge overheats, DC bus voltage drops, VFD shuts down. So do your own reaserch! It is not capable of running 3HP motor on 240V split-phase for more than 4-5 minutes without overheating and shutting down. I would return it and get a bigger one from the same manufacturer. I hope 10HP VFD would be capable of running 3HP motor.

Fantastic value! I've used this to drive the 3phase 3hp motor on my Bridgeport mill. It's a little bit of a learning curve navigating the menu and setting all of the parameters, but once you read through the instructions carefully enough it's not bad and anyone can set up motor parameters if your motor has a spec plate on it. All of the specs and features available are amazing as well for supporting external switches and what not. Wouldn't hesitate at all to get another if it was needed for another machine down the line, in fact I would try to get this one or appropriately sized brother to it for my next machine that will need phase conversion.

Stay away from this product unless you want a bunch of headaches but you don't need.

I bought this to run a 3 phase motor on a mill, you cannot use this to run any old 3 phase device, or maybe you can but I don't think so. I made up a control box like the photo and set into programming it. Programming took under 1/2 hour, I just went through the manual once I figured out how to navigate the menus. The important information you will need is on the nameplate of the motor. If you search for "HUANYANG" on YT you will find videos helping you setup the VFD. Overall, it's a decent VFD for the price. Difficulty level is hard to judge, this is my wheel house, being a controls engineer in a past life. How the average Joe will be able to program? I think they can manage with the videos and a little patience.

This model does not use HY series parameters. This is FC-01 series. You will not find a lot about parameters and setup for this so if you are a novice may not be a good idea to buy this. Also it is kinda buggy in that settings can change.

Muy fácil de configurar
