Phase Converters for Auto Shops & Car Lifts
Most auto shops fit on a 10 HP Phoenix unit. Run your lifts, alignment rack, tire machine, and wheel balancer from a single converter.

Two-post and four-post lifts typically run 1–3 HP motors. A GP10NL or GP15NL handles most shop lift setups with room to spare.
Alignment Racks & Tire Equipment
Tire machines and wheel balancers are light, intermittent loads. They run fine alongside your lifts on the same converter.
Shop-Wide vs. Dedicated
Most shops run everything from one converter. If you have a large compressor (5+ HP), we may recommend a separate NLA unit for it and an NL for the rest of the shop.
NEMA 4 Enclosure
All Phoenix converters come in a sealed NEMA 4 enclosure — shop environments with oil mist, dust, and moisture aren't a problem.
