1.0 INTRODUCTION

American Rotary specializes in converting single phase electrical power to three phase electrical power . The

three-phase output is delta configured . Most machinery requires a delta three phase voltage and this third

line voltage to ground should not affect operation . If a piece of equipment requires wye voltage and a neutral

connection, the output of the phase converter must be run through a delta-wye transformer to create the

neutral . The phase converter must be started before the transformer is connected electrically . This is done with

a safety disconnect switch . American Rotary can provide these transformers and disconnect switches if needed

by calling 888-743-6832 .

Your AMP phase converter from American Rotary has been designed to be completely plug and play for your

convenience . The AMP has come equipped with the necessary components for easy connection and set-up

(installed features may vary) .

STEP ONE

To connect to your single phase power supply,

use the provided Nema 6-50P single phase plug .

(Customer requires a 208v-240v Nema 6-50R three

prong single phase female receptacle . If you do

not have a receptacle, you can purchase them at

American Rotary by calling 888-743-6832 .)

STEP TWO

Connect the three phase load using the pre-

installed three phase receptacle . (If you do not have

a receptacle, you can purchase them at American

Rotary by calling 888-743-6832 .)

STEP THREE

Turn on the AMP rotary converter by pressing the

START button located on the front of your converter .
