For most of my equipment i'm planning on using VFD's to convert power for small 3 phase pumps. However, when it comes to the glycol chiller, a single phase chiller the size i need will consume about 27 amps fully loaded. I can also find 3 phase chillers for a lot cheaper, and im under the impression that i cant run a glycol chiller off a VFD because there are multiple different pumps and components that require 3 phase.
Wondering if it is more advisable and economically to just get a big single phase chiller, or should i get a 3 phase chiller and run it off a rotary phase converter?
I dont love the idea of a rotary phase converter running and consuming power 24/7, but is it the best option?
