Straightforward rotary phase conversion with proven industrial controls.
Industrial grade
Run CNC machines, compressors, welders, and shop equipment from single-phase service with an industrial rotary phase converter sized for your actual load.
Not sure which configuration fits? Size first or call before ordering. Final electrical work should be completed by a qualified electrician.
The right converter depends on motor horsepower, starting behavior, voltage, and what may run at the same time. A few nameplate details are enough to build a confident shortlist.

Compressors and other hard-starting loads often need additional capacity.
Review simultaneous loads, controls, transformer needs, and available service.
Choose the horsepower first, then match the model family to how your equipment is used.
Straightforward rotary phase conversion with proven industrial controls.
Integrated start and stop control for convenient manual operation.
Automatically starts and stops conversion power as equipment demand changes.
Staged starting helps reduce startup demand where single-phase service is limited.
Phoenix packages the core conversion hardware, documentation, and direct support needed to move from delivery to a properly planned installation.

💡Pro tip: Cheap converters can damage CNC machines and void equipment warranties. The $200 saved now could cost $5,000+ in repairs.
VFD and digital converters can look good on paper. Here is what happens in real shop conditions.
Ideal for CNC machines, lathes, compressors, welders, and wide-belt sanders.
Best for quiet environments, medical equipment, and single-machine setups.
Stable conversion for controls, spindle motors, and supporting equipment.
Dependable three-phase power for manual and production machine tools.
Configurations for demanding compressor startup characteristics.
Shop-ready power for metalworking and fabrication workflows.
Run sanders, shapers, dust collection, and other three-phase loads.
Start with the largest motor and account for its starting load, voltage, and any equipment that may operate simultaneously. Use the sizing guide or call Phoenix for confirmation.
Many rotary systems can supply multiple compatible loads when the converter and distribution are sized correctly. Simultaneous use and the largest starting motor should be reviewed before ordering.
Phoenix rotary converters are commonly used with CNC equipment. Confirm the machine nameplate, control requirements, voltage, and any transformer needs with the sizing team.
A qualified electrician should connect the single-phase supply, converter, protection, and three-phase load according to the supplied diagrams and applicable electrical codes.
Use the guided sizing tool or speak with a Phoenix engineer to confirm the load, voltage, controls, and complete configuration.
