30HP Rotary Phase Converter
Our 30HP Rotary Phase Converters convert single phase power into 3-phase power so anyone can take advantage of the advantages of 3-phase equipment. American Rotary phase converters are quiet, easy to install, reliable, and robust enough to handle even the most demanding applications. Our Rotary Phase Converters are backed by our 2/5/Lifetime limited warranty and are manufactured solely in the USA!
30HP Control Panel Features:
- Laser-cut knockouts: No drilling or punching required.
- Removable sides for easy access to wiring
- Comes standard with Basic controls which provide true three phase power, with the voltage on the three lines being within 10% of one another. This is a great way to go for a very cost effective phase converter solution, and this is the type of controls that the majority of phase converters on the market use.
- Optional Digital Controller which helps aide in the protection of the entire phase converter: start circuit and idler generator from utility voltage drops, brownouts, blackouts, cold temperatures, and operator-error.
30HP Idler Generator Features:
- Designed and engineered specifically for phase conversion.
- The only phase converter idler generator with a Soft Start rating!
- Copper windings and ISR (inverter spike resistant) magnet wire protect CNC equipment and other voltage sensitive applications.
- Custom manufactured in the USA by Baldor Electric.

Sizing Help
Determine the load type of the application, and then consult the chart below. Please call us toll free at 1-888-743-6832 for sizing assistance and/or a professional recommendation.
- Easy - no flywheel, clutch, little resistance/inertia, 1-2 times full load current upon start-up
- Medium- machine inertia, medium resistance, 3-4 times full load current upon start-up
- Hard - flywheel, no clutch, starts against load, 5-6 times, or locked rotor current upon start-up
- Very Hard- elevator, hydraulic pump, equipment under continuous load etc
- Frequent Start- instant reversing, heavy running loads
- CNC - turning centers, PLC's, EDM, CNC machining
- Resistive - heaters, transformers, welders, power supplies etc.
