APF 3000 Series Three Phase AC Frequency Converters up to 100kVA

THREE PHASE OUTPUT FREQUENCY CONVERTERS

The Adaptive Power Systems APF3000 Series provides a practical, reliable, and easy to use test solution for high power applications without complexity. Ideal for programmable high-power testing and simulation applications, the APF Series provides clean, stable power with low harmonic distortion (THD ≤ 0.5%) and precise output regulation (≤ 0.5%), ensuring accuracy in the most demanding environments.

This series consists of six solid state, three phase output frequency converters ranging in size from 15kVA to 100kVA. The converters allow the user to duplicate a utility grid of either 50 or 60 hertz for export product testing or operation of imported equipment or 400Hz and 360-800 Hz wild frequency power for avionics and shipboard applications.

Key Advantages

• Affordable Programmable Power
• User-Friendly Interface, Easy to Use
• Clean, Stable Power with Low THD
• Consistent, Reliable Performance
• Practical Power Simulation Capabilities
• Adaptable for Diverse Needs
• Layers of Safety
• Excellent Customer Support

The APF3000 Series converters allow the user to duplicate a three phase utility grid of either 50 or 60 Hertz for export product testing or operation of imported equipment. With its ability to power multiple AC products simultaneously, the APF3000 models are ideally suited for burn-in and test of large industrial equipment.

On A version models, the frequency can also be adjusted to 400 Hertz for applications such as the testing of military/avionics equipment or for the operation of 400 Hertz electronics that are onboard an aircraft or a military vessel.

The B version models adjustable frequency band of 45 to 500 Hertz in conjunction with the dual voltage ranges of 0-155 volts or 0-310 volts provides full capabilities for testing and operating electronics worldwide. For wild frequency aviation power, C model versions are available offering 300 to 840Hz frequency output.

Setup and operation of the APF 3000 Series is exceptionally easy. The large front panel color touch screen allows users to vary voltage, frequency and current limit. A meter display provides readouts for frequency, voltage, current, power, apparent power and power factor of each phase.

The APF 3000 series converters are a simple and cost effective solution for all of your higher power three phase AC power conversion needs.

AC Test Power

The APF3000 Series Power Source is equipped with a powerful microcontroller to create a stable and accurate output frequency, regardless of AC input conditions. It can be programmed to supply a variety of power conditions to the device under test and meters all output parameters.

Frequency/Voltage Conversion

The APF3000 Series is an excellent source of stable three phase AC voltage over a frequency range of 45 to 500 Hz (A versions). The output frequency is quartz-crystal stabilized. Output voltages up to 310 VAC or optionally 400V or 600V are available.

Export/Import Product Development and Test

With the ability to provide any three-phase or split phase voltage and frequency combination found around the world, the APF3000 Series is a great choice for evaluating AC products for worldwide use. In particular, heavy duty electrical equipment and transformers intended for export to regions of the world with various utility grid voltage and frequency combinations can be tested in high volume using the higher power APF3000 models.

Avionics Power

Whenever 400Hz, 200Vac three phase Line-to-Line is required to power up shipboard or airborne equipment, the APF3000 A version can do the job. With up to 277.8A of current per phase available, even large equipment can be powered up.
