Many advantages of pairing two or more phase converters together.

In small horsepower ratings (under 3 HP), it may actually be economical to replace the motors.

Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled [TEFC]

TEFC Motors are more reliable.

ALWAYS USE WIRING DIAGRAM SUPPLIED ON MOTOR NAMEPLATE

Thank you Katie Rydzewski for explaining the motor enclosure types so well.

Reading a motor nameplate can sometimes pose a unique challenge. Most manufacturers display information differently, and nameplates often get dirty, damaged, and occasionally are removed. This can make reading a motor nameplate a difficult or frustrating task.

Our Phoenix Rotary Phase Converters act as a rotary electric power generator.

They can transform single phase power into three phase power.

Phase converters in general typically don't require much maintenance, if at all.

In short, CNC is probably one of the most demanding applications for phase converters, so yes to operating CNC's with a Phoenix Phase Converter. As for VFD's, that's a yes, too!

There is a few factors that are used to determine the size of the phase converter to be used, we have to determine the load type and horsepower and is there any resistive loads.
