Hydrovane HV02 three phase to single phase conversion - motor swap and control box rewire

[Jelly_Sheffield]

I'm well aware of how to do it, but it seemed that you were suggesting different set points and utilising those.

On reflection my reply above is a very grumpy response...

Apologies.

I have a compressor running from VFD, so know how to do it. Your intial reply confused not just me, but several other members, if I'm reading the posts correctly.

No offence taken

Hi
i'm new in to the form! i do have one hv2 Hydrovane, that i bought almost a year ago, and not sure what's wrong with it.
I did separated the pump from the motor to see if they run freely and they do but the fuse on the plug keep blowing, i use a 16am converter cable and up the fuse to 16 but now the fuse board switch trigged
is the 2.2kk (2200w % 240 = 9.16Amp ) ia a 13 amp fuse not sufficient ???? or how i can test the component or if there is a compressor mechanic or engineer in camberley area GU15 surrey i'm happy to pay for the service
Thanks

Starting current will be significantly higher than running current. My single phase HV02 needed a Type D MCB to avoid starting trips. My 3 phase HVO2 was fine on Type C breakers but that's the joy of three phase I suppose.

(My BIG hydrovane is 18.5 KVA and rated at 38 amps running but takes hugely more on starting but survives on a D rated 50 amp mcb)
