Hi,
I have a 7.5 hp solar VFD (Veichi) without batteries powering two pumps:
Pump 1: 5hp surface pump for irrigation.
Pump 2: 5hp Bore Well pump (Well 1).
The two pumps dont operate at the same time.
This was working find until water level dropped in Well 1 and replaced Pump2 with a 3 hp pump.
I also dug a new bore well (Well 2) ansd installed a 2 hp pump (Pump 3).
So my new setup is:
Pump 1: 5hp surface pump for irrigation.
Pump 2: 3hp Bore Well pump (Well 1). (using 5.4 amps)
Pump 3: 2hp Bore Well pump (Well 2). (using 4.7 amps)
Pump 1 operated by itself and Pumps 2 and 3 together.
The issue am having is when I operate pumps 2 and 3 during mid-day when the frequency is above 43 hz the VFD starts rebooting (continiously going from 0 hz to 50 hz).
From sunrise to around 11 am and from 3 pm to sunset (when the VFD frequency is 43 hz or less) I dongt have any issues and the two pumps operate fine.
I dont experience this issue when I operate Pump1 or either Pump 2 or Pump 3 by themself.
For now, as temporary work around, I have set the max frequency to 43hz to avoid these reboots. But am not using my pumps at full capacity.
The VFD am using is 380v three phase with a max amp capacity of 13 amps.
Thanks in advance for any help.
