Where to get a single phase 440 V VFD ? Use a three phase unit!
The DC rectification magic boxes and associated bus can make sense of just about any input. As long as the fault warnings are not offended. (low volts, high volts etc. Some VFDs will not accept a dropped leg ;-( Such units with "sophisticated fault systems" are not a good choice for this application.
Getting DC from single or multi phase input is academic, Handled internally by the VFD, but every unit is fitted with connections allowing DC input. (Well, I can't say I know about EVERY UNIT, Many do.)
In multi drive systems, a single common DC bus can supply many VFDs. After all, A VFD takes in AC, makes DC then chops up and flips over the DC to simulate AC.
A "normal" 3ph VFD must be sized to handle the increased current through only two of the three rectification diodes if so applied.
I believe this form has agreed on 100% oversize. i.e a 4hp 3ph VFD if supplied single phase to power a 2 HP motor. Actual math may come up with differing justifications, but 2:1 is easy. True, if fed with 3ph, The same VFD would be happier than a clam at high tide!
If you need a VFD unit good for up to about 4hp when supplied >380 V single phase . Let me know, there is one boxed and waiting under the work bench ;-) Like all VFDs, This unit will only output the same maximum voltage that is input. So the step up transformer should be 220-440v. No free lunch!
