  <br>
Thanks so much for the reference.  I still am at an impasse.  I have an 
unhappy customer and want to proceed cautiously - Tech support at Radian
 will only promise 1/2hp per 4 KW radian module - so only 1.5 HP for an 
8048 - It's a 2 HP but as  you know HP is not a definitive determinant -
 field experience shows we can do more but it depends on the situation. 
 I asked Outback engineers if they could work with me in taking field 
data like inrush etc to determine more exactly.  This particular sewage 
macerator has high head.<br>
  <br>
I called the control panel manufacturer for the sewage pump (attached) 
and they said they couldn't add soft start to a single phase unit.  
Internet research shows you can't do much with single phase with the 
standard VFD (variable frequency drive) but there are other electronic 
approaches but I'm not sure they will work with the existing control 
panel.<br>
  <br>
Anyone else with experience that might be relevant?  Thanks!<br>
  <br>
And thanks again Chris I will make that call - Thanks!<br>
  <br>
Jeff<br>

I think the issue is capacitor start motors can't handle VFDs.  but 
there are other approaches to soft start - still learning.  Thanks for

Unfortunately I'm finding that unless you build an integrated control - 
motor combo that can soft start like Franklin did - the majority of 
single phase motors can't use soft start.  That is probably a 3-phase 
motor in that pump that they have an inverter for in the controls - or 
they used a shaded pole or spit capacitor single phase motor which can 
use soft start - at least that is what my initial research and phone 
call to the pump control company has thus far revealed.<br>
  <br>
Apparently you can play with the voltage-amperage tradeoffs when you 
have the 3 magnetic fields interaction - single phase doesn't allow you 
much room to wiggle.<br>
  <br>
I do see single phase soft-starts on the market - still researching but 
that's my initial findings.<br>
  <br>
Anyone know differently?<br>
  <br>
Thanks!<br>
