Thread: 250ex Three Phase

    Default 250ex Three Phase

    Is there any benefit to running the 250ex on three phase other than it draws lower amps?

    I believe the Power Factor is higher, but I'm not positive on that. I would think the filtering capacitors would have less ripples to filter out once it goes through the bridge rectifier.

    Yeah it makes sense. Three phase has a more stable flow of energy.
