Getting started on a BP interact 1 mk2...

Ok well first off I think you'll find the drives and control won't like running from a VFD, they are not designed for this type of power and the VFD won't like you splitting circuits off it, again they are not designed to be used in this way. Really you need a Rotary phase converter which will let you run it all 3 phase.

However often the Control and drive transformers are often single phase and just run from one leg of the main 3 phase transformer, only the spindle and coolant pumps tend to be 3 phase.
Can you link to a Circuit diagram.?

Hi Guys,

Just testing to see if i can get these to upload,







Well, that appears to have worked! So, this is what i have to work from, not ideal but better than nothing. I am looking for a proper service manual but haven't found anything yet. A circuit diagram would help i think!

I am, it would appear, getting the correct voltages from the incomer to the first transformer and out from there. The next logical step is to trace the wires from there and see if i can "find" another circuit breaker of fuse that is blown. Failing that (not anywhere near that point yet) i will strip the whole cabinet and start again.

Thanks for helping,

Mort
