Taig Lathe VFD 3Ph Motor Driver 110V 1Ph - 230v 3ph - 1/2 HP 3 PH

Description

This is a complete 3PH motor driver that was used on a Taig Micro Lathe for a 3 phase motor.  It includes a Mitsubishi FR-D710W VFD, which is perfect for hobbyists since it converts 110v 1ph to 230v 3ph, eliminating the need for phase converters, or 3 phase power from the wall. It has been wired and is in a nice sealed enclosure, with a Mitsubishi contactor, an Eaton Circuit breaker, and high quality push button controls.  No cheap off brand components in here at all.  There is also a small 24V 4.2A power supply to power a cooling fan, and could be tapped into to power other accessories.
Also included is a Mitsubishi FR-PA07 Remote Unit.  This is what I had located near my lathe to actually control the motor.  It makes it easy to set desired speed, and Start/Stop the Motor, while also being able to see what is set.
The circuit is set up so that a momentary pushbutton energizes the entire cabinet, and an E-Stop switch is used to de-energize the entire cabinet. It is also set up so that if power is lost to the cabinet/contactor, the entire circuit will de-energize, and will NOT re-energize if power is restored, UNLESS the power on pushbutton is pressed again.  This is a safety feature to ensure that if power is lost, and then unexpectedly restored, the motor will not energize, potentially causing energy.  This "logic" is not part of the VFD, it is all analog and is basically fail proof.
This is a great setup for anybody looking to upgrade their Taig lathe to 3PH power, which is one of the best upgrades you can make.  IT will allow you to run lower RPM's without losing torque for operations such as parting.
The enclosure has a wiring Diagram for the safety circuit on the inside of the door, and I will try to dig up some other wiring diagrams that I made up for how I had the remote setup.
