Except of the phase. I have single phase and this motor is for 3ph. The seller asks reasonable price. Have you tried to convert with VFD? |
Fred, That motor shown is a C-mount motor, and if the 3 phase motor bolted up, you would still have to spend money for either a VFD (variable frequency drive) or, at the least a simple capacitor phase changer (and then you're only going to get 2/3 the rated power of the 3 phase motor. Stick with a direct replacement, or get your motor rewound.
