I recently purchased the compressor, however I dont have 3 phase power at my shop only single phase 240. I know it might be easier to by a replacement single phase motor, however Ive also read on some of the features that I feel I could benefit from with a VFD. In particular the soft starting. The compressor has two unloader valves and a continous run valve as well.
This is the motor label
I contacted Teco/Westinghouse and they recommended the following VFD
A510-2015-C3-U
The price of the VFD is pretty close to the cost of a new motor...would I the better choice be the VFD?
