The GP10ASL AutoStart rotary phase converter delivers 10 HP of continuous three-phase power from your single-phase 230V service — and it starts and stops automatically. When your equipment calls for three-phase power, the GP10ASL fires up. When the load drops, it shuts down. No manual switch, no wasted electricity, no babysitting. Built for small to mid-size shops that demand hands-free single phase to three phase conversion.

Why the GP10ASL AutoStart Phase Converter
The GP10ASL senses three-phase demand and starts automatically. When your equipment shuts off, the converter powers down — saving energy and reducing wear.
Clean, balanced three-phase power from your single-phase supply. Won't damage sensitive equipment or trip breakers under load.
One phase converter powers your entire shop — up to 10 HP of simultaneous three-phase load across all your equipment.
Thermal and magnetic protection safeguards your equipment. AutoLink soft-start system prevents inrush damage on startup.
Continuous duty rated. TEFC motor handles 24/7 operation in demanding environments — dust, heat, and vibration.
AutoStart eliminates idle run time. The converter only draws power when your three-phase equipment is actually running — cutting your electric bill.
IP65 Weatherproof Control Panel
Every panel is rated IP65 — fully sealed against dust and water jets. Install indoors or outdoors with confidence, even in harsh shop environments.
Heavy-Duty TEFC Idler Motor
Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled motor with cast iron frame, precision-balanced rotor, and sealed bearings. Built for decades of continuous industrial service.
🏗️ Common Applications for 10 HP AutoStart Phase Converters
The GP10ASL AutoStart phase converter is ideal for equipment that runs intermittently — it powers up automatically when you turn on your three-phase machine and shuts down when you're done.

Talk to an engineer — we'll size the right AutoStart phase converter for your exact setup
The GP10ASL is a 10 HP AutoStart rotary phase converter designed and manufactured by Phoenix Phase Converters in Phoenix, Arizona. This single phase to three phase converter provides reliable three-phase 230V power from a standard single-phase 230V service, with the added convenience of automatic start and stop. When your three-phase equipment turns on, the GP10ASL detects the load and starts the idler motor automatically. When the load is removed, it shuts down — eliminating wasted energy and manual switching.
The AutoStart feature makes the GP10ASL ideal for shops where equipment runs intermittently — CNC machines, compressors, pumps, and other three-phase tools that cycle on and off throughout the day. No need to walk to the panel to flip a switch before every use. The GP10ASL handles it automatically, so you can focus on your work.

Learn About Remote Monitoring →🔁 Why AutoStart
GP10ASL starts automatically when your equipment calls for three-phase power and shuts down when the load goes idle. No pushbutton, no manual sequencing, no wasted idler runtime — the converter senses load and cycles on demand.
Best for unattended pumps, HVAC compressors, refrigeration units, elevators, and any equipment where the operator can't (or shouldn't) touch a start button before every cycle. Cuts electricity cost and idler wear compared to a converter that runs continuously.
🛡️ Warranty & Support
Lifetime warranty on idler motor and control panel. AutoStart sensing circuit carries a 3-year replacement warranty. If any component is defective within the warranty period, Phoenix Phase Converters will repair or replace it at our discretion.
Return policy: Sealed, unopened packages are eligible for return within 90 days of purchase. Contact us before returning.
