    Re: Electrical question on Haunyang VFD 2.2kw

    Their youtube videos have some links to direct purchase channels so this was pretty useful. It seems one of the Amazon sellers is factory direct sales as well as one of the aliexpress sellers. ...

    It's strange you can't get to that page directly from within their own website. Website has a empty download page.

    Re: Electrical question on Haunyang VFD 2.2kw

    Al says the factory told him they use R and T inputs which contradicts the "chose any two" manual. Mactec says R and T is best and other combos may cause damage. We have to interpret the meaning of...

    It would cost Haunyang next to nothing to eliminate the questions posed here. They are their own worst enemy.

    Re: Electrical question on Haunyang VFD 2.2kw

    99% of the people reading this will be running single phase. Haunyang could print some stick on labels that say "This terminal for 3 phase input only." Cover up the S terminal with the label and...

    Some of these other manufacturers only have two input terminals for their single phase drives making it impossible to have problems like this.

    Wow. This is the most damning condemnation of Haunyang I have ever read. And from Mactec no less!

    If the manufacturer added a third current sensor, would that eliminate the possibility of the end user picking the wrong 2 of 3 inputs that is the less reliable combination? How much would that cost...
  12. Re: For an advanced hobbiest -Which inverter/spindle?

    Teknomotor has a USA distributor. No prices are listed so it's hard to comparison shop but shipping within the US should be a lot cheaper. To OZ, maybe not.

  13. Re: Where to buy power cable for larger spindles?

    The people buying Huanyang products will probably disagree with that.

    It does look nicer although I'm not sure the first one rates "amateur at best". Got any pictures of your own work?
  14. Re: Where to buy power cable for larger spindles?

    The budget for the enclosures alone is enough to make my eyes water.

    Very helpful link and priced per foot is great for the little guy. My last install just ran SO cord inside metallic liquid tight conduit which I got nearly free. The motor is stationary so no flex...
  16. Re: Where to buy power cable for larger spindles?

    Even better. You can pick it apart without offending Al. I look forward to seeing pics of what a real pro install looks like.

    Given your obviously extensive professional experience with this kind of thing, perhaps you could point out what it is there that is so amateurish with Al's installation so the rest of us can be...
  18. Re: Emerson vs Hitachi vs Huanyang. What is your experience with your VFD?

    For the price I suspect that much. I figured it couldn't be any worse than a Huanyang. I may not buy one for a mission critical application but for a simple home shop application where I have to...
  19. Re: Emerson vs Hitachi vs Huanyang. What is your experience with your VFD?

    I just got a few of the Delta VFD015M21A off Ebay. The first one had an incorrect label but seems to work fine. The others had a more genuine looking label. Can't say for sure if they are clones...

    Re: Seller Funny Business

    I understand all of that completely. I said a 0.25HP drive won't run a 3.0HP motor. See the decimal points? They are important, as are periods. Maybe you read too quickly and misinterpreted.

    I was skeptical when you said in post #5

    So now you confirm they all won't work up to the max E series motor size because the max amp parameter limits each drive. We agree, the 0.25HP version is...

    If you are going to the trouble of counterfeiting a VFD, at least proofread your labels. Here is a picture showing the labels from three VFDs. All are for the same model but only the top label...

    Your website is down on Cyber Monday. It is blank except to ask for a user name and password. I wanted to compare prices and specs with
