IAC 60 Hz Frequency Converter

The IAC is a facility-grade frequency converter designed not for direct aircraft power but for the manufacturing, testing, and commissioning environment that surrounds aircraft production: powering three-phase asynchronous motors, test stands, and work departments that must operate at 60 Hz when the local utility grid supplies 50 Hz. This is a common requirement in European and Middle Eastern facilities that manufacture or integrate 60 Hz-standard components — North American avionics, rotary-axis actuators, frequency-sensitive test instruments — in a 50 Hz grid environment. The IAC accepts 3×380 V at 50 Hz and delivers 220/380 V at 60 Hz with a rated output power range of 3 to 300 kVA, selectable to suit anything from a single test bench to a centralised workshop supply. Efficiency in nominal mode is 97%, and the unit handles unbalanced loads — important in test environments where individual phases may carry asymmetric loads from different test equipment. Output voltage stability is held to ±2%, frequency deviation to ±0.1%, and THD to ≤3%, ensuring sensitive test instrumentation receives consistent, clean power. IP54 enclosure protection makes it suitable for light industrial workshop environments. The IAC is a niche but non-substitutable product in any procurement specification that requires 60 Hz power from a 50 Hz facility — the only alternatives being dedicated diesel generators (higher complexity, higher noise) or individual variable-frequency drives per motor (no centralised solution).
