    Note:

    1. The single phase motor should Not be adjusted to run based on a lower frequency than 80% of its rated frequency for along time, otherwise the motor may fail.
    2. ATO VFD Cannot be used as a power source, it Can only be directly connected to an induction motor to control the motor speed.
    3. Single phase VFD Cannot control the motor in reverse, if you want to reverse the motor, refer to the motor nameplate instructions for operation.

    Tips: Variable frequency drive functions in air conditioning

    1. In air conditioning, VFD can make the compressor motor speed continuously adjustable, and the speed is based on indoor air conditioning load proportional change. When the room needs rapid cooling (or rapid warming), air conditioning load will increase, the compressor speed up, and the cooling (or heating) capacity will proportion increases. And then after reaches the set temperature, the system will operate in low-speed to maintain room temperature.
    2. VFD air conditioner uses electronic expansion valve to control the flow, and its outdoor micro processor controls the valve opening degree based on the expansion valve inlet and outlet, the compressor in the air pipe at the temperature sensor to collect information, which can change the flow of refrigerant at any time. The speed of the compressor corresponds to the opening degree of the expansion valve, so that the capacity of the evaporator can be maximized. At the same time, because of using electronic expansion valve as a throttle element, the device will not stop when defrost. It uses compressor exhaust heat to the indoor, and then sends the remaining heat to the outside to melt the frost on heat exchanger fin.
    3. VFD air conditioner will gradually replace the traditional fixed speed air conditioner, and becoming the main stream of air conditioning control technology. The frequency conversion technology has been changed from AC type to DC type, and the control technology has been developed from PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) to PAM (Pulse Amplitude Modulation). The speed of the compressor with PWM control is limited by the upper limit speed, generally not more than 7,000/min, and the compression speed of PAM control mode can be increased for about 1.5 times, which greatly improves the refrigeration capacity at refrigeration and low temperature.

    Running a single phase motor with VFD

    In this video, ATO will show you details about running a single phase motor on a VFD. It's important to note that there are two wiring methods for single phase motor connecting to ATO single phase VFD: wiring of removing motor capacitor & wiring of keeping motor capacitor. At first, you should choose the wiring method you needed, and then set basic parameters step by step.

    Factory reset procedure
    What is the factory reset procedure for a GK3000 VFD?
    From: Glorie | Date: 15/10/2024
    Was this review helpful? Yes No (0/0)
    ATO Responded
    VFD factory reset: If your VFD nameplate S/N serial number has 9000, please set Pd.01=1. If the nameplate does not have 9000, please set parameter P3.01=10.
    Can I adjust the frequency it operates at while running?
    Sorry for the confusion. My frequency range is 40 to 60 Hz. When I power up the VFD, the display flashes 40Hz. Can I adjust the frequency it operates at while running?
    From: Ivy01 | Date: 09/10/2023
    Was this review helpful? Yes No (0/0)
    ATO Responded
    Yes, when the VFD is running, you can adjust the frequency through the operation panel potentiometer, set P0.01=0 (the frequency comes from the keyboard analog potentiometer). Let us know if you have any other questions.
    Can I use a phased sine wave filter (partially) in a single phase output?
    We purchased three 7.5 hp (5.5 kW) VFD's from your company and we would like to filter their outputs as we have noticed that they stress the compressor start capacitors, one of which has failed. Is it possible to use a phase sine wave filter (partially) in the single phase output? Or do you know of any manufacturer that offers this solution?
    From: lily | Date: 04/09/2023
    Was this review helpful? Yes No (0/0)
    ATO Responded
    Unfortunately, three-phase filters cannot be used as single-phase filters. We recommend that you replace the compressor's start capacitor with a model with higher withstanding voltage and better performance.
    How do I set the starting frequency?
    My frequency range is from 40 to 60 and it starts at 40Hz.

    If you want a 0-60HZ output, you can set the lowest frequency to P0.20=0 (lower frequency limit).
    Is there any way to go through the VFD parameters over the phone?
    OK, this drive is running a single-phase 240 V motor with the capacity of no pressure transducer.
    I have set all parameters but when I push the start button, the motor does not turn and just hums.
    I am also trying to use a 2-wire control to start and stop the motor with a time block. Is there any way to go through the parameters over the phone?

    ATO Responded
    1. Please provide us with your motor nameplate picture.
    2. What parameters did you set? Please provide the wiring diagram.
    3. It would be better if the working video of VFD can be provided.
    Thank you for your understanding. You can send us the large video file via wetransfer.com.

    You want to control the start of the VFD through the contacts of a timing relay, yes?
    Please tell us in detail what is your control requirement?

    Overheated the compressor
    We have successfully tested this VFD with our air-conditioning compressor (model: Copeland ZR48K3E-PFJ-522 / Locked motor current: 114 A / max. operating current: 23.5 A, starting capacitor: 60 uF). However, the only configuration which really works is a two-terminal connection with the starting capacitor present. Unfortunately, all other 3-wire configurations, which directly supply the secondary winding as presented in the manual, resulted in very high currents, which immediately overheated the compressor. The running current, as shown on the VFD screen, is about 9.2 A in normal operation, but was exceeding 25 A when connected in a 3-wire configuration. Could you please explain this problem? When trying to supply the VFD directly from the available 330 V DC bus, the inrush current is extremely high, immediately blowing a slow-blow 30 A fuse. Could you please provide the exact total capacity of the internal capacitors of the VFD? We need to either install a bigger fuse or, better, provide a slow-start for charging the internal capacitors of the VFD without blowing the fuse.

    1. Because 3-wire configurations change the internal structure of the motor, the starting current of the motor will be very large. Not all single-phase motors are suitable for changing to 3-wire configurations, so we recommend that you continue to use 2-wire configurations and keep the capacitor connection.
    2. The fuse can be configured according to 1.5 times the rated current of the VFD, and you can use a 50A fuse for testing.
    I want to add VFD’s to our two 10hp irrigation pump motors.
    I want to add VFD’s to our two 10hp irrigation pump motors. So we can set the ramp rate and reduce water hammering.

    I was told that you can’t get VFD’s for single phase motors over 5 hp but then came across yours.

    I have attached the name plate from one of the motors (they’re both the same).

    Our largest single-phase VFD is only 7.5kw, and the output rated current is 50A. But your single-phase motor is also 7.5kw, with a current of 41A. In this case, we can Not guarantee that our single-phase VFD can normally drive this 7.5kW single-phase motor.
    What VFD setting should adjust?
    I am currently trying to program my gk3000 VFD to operate my 7.5 hp motors.
    I have 240V single phase from two inverters. I have 195V per wire on the output.
    I am wanting 115V per wire on the out put. What setting should I adjust to achieve my goal?

    You can set parameter p0.08 (maximum output voltage).
    VFD problem.
    I have installed a GK3000 single phase VFD, a 3 phase motor is connected. The VFD boots up and there are no alarms. When I run the VFD the display shows the output frequency and output voltage but the motor does not turn and there is no voltage outputting to the motor.

    1. Please provide us with a video to show the problem you describe. The video should show that the VFD is running, but there is no output voltage.
    2. You can set the VFD parameters: P3.01=10 (restore the factory parameters), run the VFD with no load, and when the frequency runs to 50/60HZ, use a multimeter to measure whether the output terminals U-V and V-W of the VFD have output voltage.
    We are looking for a VFD. Can you give us some advice?
    We are looking for single phase input and output VSD for single Phase fan 230VAC, 0.4kW. Could you please give me advice?

    The use effect of VFD
    I've been in the electrical business for a long time and I'm very pleased to see your single phase output VFD. How can the starting torque be compared when using the drive VS the same motor starting with its original capacitors? Taking this to a bad case like starting a piston compressor, would it work?
    From: Randrsn | Date: 31/08/2021
    Was this review helpful? Yes No (0/0)
    ATO Responded
    If you use our single phase output VFD, the starting torque of the single phase motor will be smaller than the original motor. Because the starting voltage and frequency will be smaller when the VFD just starts the motor. So for such a piston compressor to start, it would not work.
    How to choose a VFD?
    I have a 3 hp 115 volt 30 amp motor that I need a VFD for. What are my options for this application?

    We provide 1 phase drive, but only for 1 phase, 220/230/240V motors. Don't provide for 115V motors.
