Three Phase Grain Auger
A three phase grain auger
is a tube that contains a solid shaft in the center of it with flighting
on it. The flighting on a three phase grain auger is a spiral of
flat steel that is welded onto the center shaft. The center shaft on the
three phase grain auger, turns in a clockwise direction and the
flighting pulls the grain in and pushes is up the shaft.
The
three phase grain auger takes the
grain and puts it into a bin for storage or to transport the grain out
of the bin to a truck or a grain wagon which can then be taken to the
grain market. Guards are put on the intake end of the three phase
grain auger so that other objects other than grain are not pulled
into the end of the three phase grain auger. Some three phase
grain augers do not have these guards but they are very wise to use.
The three phase grain auger
has replaced much hard work from handling grain that most other
machines. The one thing to consider though, when operating a three
phase grain auger, is safety. You should always leave the shields or
guards on when operating the three phase grain auger. These shields on
the three phase grain auger will reduce the opportunity to become
wrapped up in the auger that is rapidly turning the machinery. There are
also intake screens at the base of the three phase auger that will help
in preventing hands and feet from becoming caught between the auger
screw and tube. Keep in mind that the three phase grain auger is
a very useful, labor saving machine but can be very hazardous when it is
not operated correctly and safely.
One way to make sure that your
three phase grain auger is being operated correctly, is to make sure
that it is running with true three phase power. This can be achieved by
purchasing a phase converter. The three phase grain auger
was made to run on three phase power, so this is very important to
obtain the correct power. Most utility company will charge you a
fortune to obtain this type of power so the phase converter is a less
expensive alternative. The true three phase converter takes the single
phase power and converts it into true three phase power. If the phase
converter has it's own 3-phase generator with power factor correction,
you can be assured that you are getting a smooth and true three phase
form of power.
ACE
Phase
Converter has been manufacturing true three phase power
converters for 25 years. This company had true three phase power on
their minds when they designed the best phase converters on the market
today. Each component is made with 100% copper windings and wiring and
they are all made right here in the United States. They have been given
a 5 star rating with their top of the line phase converters. They stand
behind all of their products by offering the consumer a 10 year
warranty. You can rest assure, that your three phase grain
auger will run efficiently and safely for many years to come when
you purchase a product from ACE Phase Converter.
