I have a 7.5 HP vane type compressor that I am researching how to run on single phase power. Swapping to a single phase motor is not an option. Anyone have any knowledge of sizing a phase converter? It looks like I can find rotary phase converters that say 7.5 HP for around $600. But I don't know if this is one of those situations where I really should be getting a 10 HP converter for the 'extra overhead power'. Advice?
