VEVOR 20HP Rotary Phase Converter Single to 3 Phase

VEVOR's 20HP model uses a rotary idler generator to produce clean three-phase power from 220V single-phase input, suitable for CNC lathes and mills. Its rotary conversion principle, which relies on a spinning generator to create the phase shift, aligns precisely with tariff item 8502.40.00 for electric rotary converters.

Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8504.40.30Same rate: Free

If the converter uses static electronic components instead of a rotating generator

Static converters are classified under heading 85.04.

8501.52.00Same rate: Free

If the unit is essentially a three-phase motor used as an idler without a dedicated converter function

A motor used alone as a phase converter may be classified as an AC motor.
