Three Phase Pivot Irrigation
 A
three phase pivot irrigation is a machine that is used to
irrigate crops. The three phase pivot irrigation equipment
actually rotates around in a pivot and often creates a circular pattern
in the crops when they are viewed from the air.
The
three phase pivot irrigation
equipment consists of several pipes that are joined in segments of
galvanized steel or aluminum. These pipes are supported by trusses and
they are mounted on wheeled towers that have sprinklers that are
attached along the length of the three phase pivot irrigation
machine. The three phase pivot irrigation equipment then moves in
a circular pattern and the water is fed from the pivot point at the
center of the circle. The three phase pivot irrigation machine
has two sets of wheels, one on the outside and then an inner set of
wheels which are mounted between two segments.
The modern three phase pivot
irrigation machines have installed drops that hang from a u-shaped
pipe that is called a gooseneck. The gooseneck is attached at the top of
the pipe with sprinkler heads that are just a few feet above the crop
that is being irrigated. When this is installed on the three phase
pivot irrigation machine, it limits evaporation and any wind drift
that can occur. The three phase pivot irrigation machine is
electronically powered.
Three phase power must be used to
operate the three phase pivot irrigation machine. This can be
done by installing a phase converter. A phase converter is a device that
will convert the single phase power source into three phase power. The
phase converter uses three circuits which carry three alternating
currents that are of the same frequency. They, however, will reach their
instantaneous peak values at three different times. Due to these
alternating currents, the phase converter carries a constant and
balanced flow of electricity to the three phase pivot irrigation
machine. To make sure that you are actually getting true three phase
power, the phase converter will always have it's own 3-phase rotary
generator with power faction correction.
The company ACE
Phase
Converter uses phase converter in their name because
their ultimate goal was to design the best phase converter on the market
today to solve three phase power issues. They have been given a
5-star rating in the industry of phase converters with their perfected
product. They have been solving three phase issues for more than
25 years, worldwide and they have a lot of happy customers. Powering
your three phase pivot irrigation machine and any other three
phase equipment with an ACE Phase Converter, you can be assured it will
operate smoothly and efficiently for many years to come..
