Where can i buy VFDs that ships internationally?

[drakejest]

Hello was wondering if anybody knows place/site that sells VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) from the well known brands (Siemens,Schneider,Rockwell, and etc) ? Specifically for a single -phase 240VAC 2HP (1500W) motor.

International shipping is a must

Digi-key sell VFD from DELTA Electronics, no idea if that is good, but since digi-key is selling them, they must be atleast decent.

Try contact Vacon.
They have very good drives and free configuration software.

I can't tell which country you're in. I think you meant that the VFD input power is single phase 240VAC but the output is 3 phase.

Yes, a VFD is unworkable for a 1.5kW motor. The original poster must mean single phase in, three phase out.

RS Components sell them, along with numerous other suppliers.

Inverter out of the UK is the only major vendor that builds a single phase output VFD.

AFAIK you can put single phase into most 3 phase input VFDs, just require derating to account for the now undersized rectifier diodes and filter caps. I would assume OP really wants a single phase in/out unit, which are quite rare as they have limited application and motor compatibility (won't work with anything with a start cap or switch). Generally better to just find an appropriate 3ph motor and use a readily available VFD.

Delta Electronics is a fair know brand. I've used one of their models VFDs, the VFD022M43B 3 phase and it was easy to implement in a solution, with good documentation available.

Before that the company itself had used other Delta VFD models in diverse machines and production solutions without any problems or lack of reliability.
