Description, Features & Operation
12
This converter is intended to power three phase high cycle vibrators using a standard single phase
50/60 Hz, 230 volt power source.
Internally, it uses a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) which converts this single phase power to the required three phase
133/200 Hz power required by high cycle vibrators. The drive does this by using the single phase power to charge a DC
bus. It then switches the power on an off very rapidly to simulate the sinusoidal voltage required by high cycle vibrators.
Three different models are available which plug into standard 230 Volt generators:
- Model #SC1420 has a plug suitable for a four prong, turn-locking, 20 Amp, Nema L1420R receptacle.
- Model #SC1430 has a plug suitable for a four prong, turn-locking, 20 Amp, Nema L1430R receptacle.
- Model #Sc620 has a plug suitable for a three prong, turn-locking, 20 Amp, Nema L620R receptacle.
These converters are identical except for the input power plug used. A minimum of a 15 Amp supply is required.
The wiring for the above input plugs is as follows:
White X -115 Volts AC
Black Y +115 Volts AC
Green G Ground
Not Used W Not Used
The speed of high cycle vibrators is determined by the frequency of the voltage supplied. This converter will output three
different frequencies 133, 180 and 200 Hertz which corresponds to a vibration speed of 8,000, 10,800 and 12,000 VPM.
This speed is selected with the
rotary switch which can also be switched to the “Off” position.
The vibrators plug into two Hubbell (#HBL7410BG) or Leviton (#7420CR), 20 Amp, 4 pole, receptacle outlets. Two plugs
that will fit these receptacles are Pass & Seymour Model #7411SS and Hubbell #7411GBC.

To start up follow the steps below in order:
1. Insure that the equipment is in good safe working order. Check all cables, plugs and electrical outlets to be sure they
are not damaged before proceeding.
2. Insure that the converter rotary switch is in the off position.
3. Insure that the vibrators are turned off.
4. Apply power to the converter.
5. Set converter to the desired speed.
6. Turn vibrators on and off as desired with switches on vibrators.
To shut down follow the steps below in order:
1. Turn off the vibrators with switches on vibrators.
2. Turn rotary switch on the converter to the off position.
3. Unplug converter or turn off the power to the converter.
