is anyone can help?...
is there any dc to ac converter (12Vdc to 220-240Vac) schema that produces 500W pure sine wave?

thanks in advance

Inverters delivering sine wave are fairly cheap today, so i don't think it is a very economic DIY project.

A good place for finding schematics is to look at the application notes at some power semiconductor manufacturer's websites. I.e. Fairchild, Intersil, Texas Instruments.

thanks for your advice.
I've searched at local shop and found out that the inverter can not be used for driving a motor load. why?
I'm looking the inverter just because I have an ac motor where I want to give the power from acid battery not from ac power.

Usually, it should not be a problem connecting a motor to an inverter. Maybe that particular inverter design has problems with voltage or frequency regulation when connecting a "live" load as a motor with inertia to it, or maybe it cannot supply the high inrush current needed by some kinds of motors.

What kind of motor is it? A commutator (universal) motor or an induction motor? Does it have any speed control or soft start facilities? What is the motor to be used for?

I've look at the inverter that it produces a suitable frequency (50Hz) to the motor. I'm not sure what kind of the motor, maybe a universal one. It doesn't have speed control. It is used to drive some gears making any seed (paper) to be a powder like.

one more thing. is the modified sine wave = sine wave? is that ok to drive ac motor?

When inverter vendors talk about "modified sine wave", they usually mean a staircase wave. Most motors should be able to run fairly well on a such voltage, perhaps they make somewhat more noise or operate with somewhat lower efficiency than on a pure sine wave.

I will find the pure sine wave since I will use it for a long time. The price is quite significant different between them.

Thanks torbjorn.
