Guys, sorry, maybe completely out of context, but I'm desperate and I'm so newbie...

I've brought some household appliances from Europe (220V@50Hz) to Brazil (110V60Hz).

I've managed to get 220V here combining two "hots" (I think you call it like that) of 110V. But at 60Hz my washing machine is too "lazy" to work well.

For the frequency I've bought like two years ago a 3kv/220V frequency inverter from Aoran Bai, it is the same Huanyang of everybody's else. I recognize it by the pictures and manual.

I think I had everything properly connected and set up, but the VFD gave me some errors like: "E.OC.A" and "E.OC.n". I stopped before I burn anything.

Now I'm so tired of washing my dishes by hand and I'm so mingy to buy a new wash machine that I must make this work.

Can you please, please help me?

Input I've got: 220V @ 60 Hz
Output needed: 220V @ 50Hz steady without any complicate things like tork, rev, current, direction or any control thing whatsoever, just constant 50Hz.

The inverter can do a lot o complex things, i just need it to make the simple task of outputting AC220V 50Hz. That's all.

Can somebody help, please?

any comment will be very much appreciated.

try usa ebay have seen some inverters 110 v in 240 v out . dont understand too much about these thing but if you have a modern machine it may be verry fussy regarding cycles and votage . cheers Bob

thank you for your message. i'm sure there is a away to set up the machine. I just want it to do simpler things than what it's able to perform....

any other opinions?

I have just reread the manual for the Huanyang VFD but I am unable to help you on this.
I suggest that you contact the manufacturer and ask them.

Any chance the problem is most VFD's are intended to make 3 phase power out of "single phase" or vary the frequency of 3phase power. You are just using 2 phases. I think the error message might be telling you you have one phase un connected. It just a WAG.
Reading the manual is such a treat on that one.
Good luck.

So far no lucky, thank you any way

I tried the manufacturer, so far no answer, I keep writing. Thank you Bob

for the 3 phases / 2 phases issue, I believe this is not the problem, for I have connected a laundry Iron to it and it worked, along with other heavy appliances. It is my washing machine the thing is "refusing" to work with.

I keep trying until I burn something.
