10 steps to ensure quality of 3-phase frequency converter

High quality power supplies are essential in the R&D and production lines of electrical and electronic manufacturing companies, a frequency converter can simulate worldwide electric power (50Hz 60Hz) to test the appliances/machines work in their perfect circumstance. GoHz adopts a series of quality inspection steps to ensure the quality of frequency converter after manufacturing, here we will show you 10 steps to test the frequency converter.

Step.1 Power on GoHz 3-phase frequency converter, turn on the input switch, check the mainboard of the frequency converter see if there is any red LED indicator lighting up.
