Booster

Single Phase to Three Phase Converters

8kW Booster D, 230V single phase in, 3x 400V 50Hz out
Basically two types of Converters.
1/ Low cost low power Solid State Single to three Phase converter


2/ Use a single phase motor as an alternator to mae one more phase and then synthesis the third from Caps
!rive Boosters" single to three phase converters.
