Hey guys I知 just currently messing around with my bock extractor, and I致e currently got it on a variable frequency drive to run the extractor on artificial 60 Hz instead of 50 Hz
Either way it works great I知 just a little bit concerned considering I知 not sure if I can well and truly handle it but it appears to be working fine

Extractor Fun

Hi Adam, please post pictures or videos 

 

We have an older 3 phase 11 hundred RPM extractor that is amazing, it needs some mechanical rebuilding but it is a lot of fun.

 

I will try to find some pictures of ours.

Update, bad news

For some odd reason the VFD potentially had a short, I appear to have got it working although the other more Concerning issue is that the extractor now has some sort of knocking or thumping noise with it even when there痴 nothing inside of it so I知 a little bit concerned and I知 hoping that it does not mean the end for it
