How awesome is a pot controlled VFD!!!

No, most VFDs can be wired for an external pot. I think my manual said it could be 50 meters away. I'll settle for 24" so I can put the VFD under the work bench and have just the pot near the grinder.

That's sweet! thanks for bring up this discussion...this could be really handy
 
I don't get it. Everything I see on that vfd says its 1hp max. How are you running a 1.5 hp motor off it?
 
Ah, you're right! The Baldor VM3546T motor is only 1HP. I thought I had installed the RHM3154, which is 1.5hp. However, it's sitting under the bench on a shelf with the other VFD.
