Re: [RE-wrenches] Frequency converter?

Hi Chris, this a Darryl kluge approach.  Get a 50 Hz battery charger, a
LiFePO battery. And a off grid inverter.  20 kW is tough, maybe a 15 kW
inverter woild surfice. The battery plus battery chsrger should be sized
to handle 300 amps 48 volts.  15 kW / 50 volts= 300 A.
If the battery can handle 2C and the charger is 100 A you need 200 Ah
SORRY I AM JUST RATTLING

[RE-wrenches] Frequency converter?

2022-10-05 Thread Chris Daum via RE-wrenches
Hey folks:
 
A would-be customer is building a home in the Caribbean, where they utilize 
230V, 50 hz.  But he cannot find the appliances he wants in that voltage & 
hertz range; is there some large frequency converter that he can hook to their 
(230V 50hz) grid that’ll convert it to 120/240V 60 hz?  He’s not too efficient, 
peak loads are apt to be around 20kwh….  Location is Dominica, with a reliable 
utility.
 
Thanks for any ideas you may have!
 
Best,
