    help plz 3 phase converter

    The contactor starts the motor. I set vdf to desired speed and I can hear coil power up. then use the up button and contactor kicks the motor in. And yes I thought about hooking up a small 12v battery and small switch to trigger solenoid to lower the ramp it's a bit messy but it will work just a...

    help plz 3 phase converter

    That makes sence . But the down button must work as I put a test on 2 and 5 from solenoid and it comes from 0v to 24v when button is pressed.  I'm at a complete loss lol time to call in an expert I think

Gone back to N AND W together set the converter to 220v so coil gets constant 220v when buttons is pressed contactor makes...

    help plz 3 phase converter

    HI thanks for your help, correct me if I'm wrong but it is my understanding. Inverter only gives out 220v max on 3 phases W V U 220v on each theres is no way 400v is going to control box coil. On invertor prog menu it will only adjust upto 220v max. Although on the wiring diagram it says 380v...

    help plz 3 phase converter

    I did think of doing that but got a inverter 49 quid I'm not that good with this type of stuff. Inverter works great but for some reason it will not trigger the solenoid to lower the ramp. Everything else works. Limit switches etc. It would be a shame to replace it all and it works fine. Part...
