Hello guys,
Bought a 2006 Bridgeport/Hardinge EZ Vison Mill and have a few questions about wiring it.
Its 3 phase and wired for 460 volts.
I don't have 3 phase in my garage so I will be using a Tempco 7.5kw 10hp Rotary Phase Coverter.
10HP Rotary Phase Converter, 1 To 3 Phase - Soft Start - eBay (item 260492399106 end time Aug-30-10 11:46:12 PDT)
My question is, since I only have 240 residential volts coming in the garage how do I convert the Bridgeport for 240 power instead of 460? The main motor has a wiring diagram where it can be re-wired for low voltage of 208/220/230.
Does anything in the main box have to be changed if we rewire the main motor for low voltage? Don't want to burn it up, my electrician doesn't seem to keen on these machines. I can't seem to get any answers from Hardinge and don't have any wiring diagrams.
Thanks in advance!!
Newby Pete
