Spindle 2?

[Ross77]

Picked up a 3ph motor today, have been told it works but want to know if there is a way to test the motor before powering it up and possibly damaging the vfd.

The motor is 0.75kw, 2800rpm and 230v if wired in star config.

Cheers in advance

You wont damage the VFD, it'll just trip out. Just set it for a low speed before hitting run...

I just picked up a IMO Cub CDS 0.75kW inverter ( for £35! I'm sure the guy had put it on wrong, £30 initial price £35 Buy It Now... so I did! Found the manual on the net too...

So now I can run the lathe and mill independently...
