About Three-Phase Power.

Reliable Three-Phase Power for Agricultural Equipment

American Rotary helps farms run three-phase agricultural equipment using single-phase power, without relying on expensive utility upgrades.

Agricultural Equipment We Power

American Rotary phase converters are used across a wide range of agricultural applications on farms and rural operations,
from grain handling to irrigation and feed processing.

Augers, Grain Dryers, Grain Drying Fans, Grain Mixers, Conveyors

Irrigation Pumps, Submersible Pumps, Booster Pumps, Tower Pivots

Grinders, Mixers, Balers, Chain Hoists

Blowers, Heaters, Ventilation Systems

Problems

The Power Challenges Agricultural Operations Face

Agricultural equipment often runs in rural locations where access to reliable three-phase power is limited or unavailable. On a farm, unstable or undersized power can disrupt critical operations and put essential equipment at risk.

Limited or no access to utility three-phase power

Many farms are located far from the grid, making utility upgrades impractical or unavailable.

High cost and long timelines to bring three-phase service onsite

Utility installation costs can be significant and often do not make sense for seasonal or expanding operations.

Large motors and pumps that are difficult to start reliably

Irrigation systems, grain dryers, and conveyors place heavy demands on power during startup.

Voltage-sensitive equipment affected by unstable power

Poor power quality can lead to faults, shutdowns, or long-term damage to motors and controls.
