About North America Phase Converters
About North America Phase Converters
North America Phase Converters was founded by Jay Yuergens from its base in New Berlin, Wisconsin, with the straightforward mission of helping shops transform single-phase utility power into the three-phase power their machines need. That focus has made the company a go-to source for facilities without access to three-phase service from their utility, a common problem for shops in rural or older industrial buildings.
The company's Pro-Line Rotary Phase Converters and Smart-Boost digital rotary phase converters are among its most widely used products, designed and built in New Berlin to serve as universal rotary converters across a range of motor horsepower requirements. North America Phase Converters manufactures both static and rotary converter types, giving customers options depending on load type and starting torque needs.
American Rotary acquired North America Phase Converter Co., bringing the company's rotary and static converter lines under a larger phase conversion specialist while the products continue to be built from the original Wisconsin facility. ChatMRO's catalogue covers North America Phase Converters' rotary and static units by motor horsepower so shops can size a converter to their equipment.

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between a rotary and static phase converter?
A rotary phase converter generates a true three-phase power supply by spinning an idler motor, making it suitable for running multiple machines or motors with high starting torque. A static converter is simpler and less expensive but typically only supports a single motor at reduced output.
What is North America Phase Converters' Pro-Line product?
Pro-Line is the company's line of rotary phase converters designed and built in New Berlin, Wisconsin as a universal solution across a range of motor horsepower requirements. It's one of the company's most widely used rotary converter products.
What is Smart-Boost and how does it differ from Pro-Line?
Smart-Boost is North America Phase Converters' digital rotary phase converter line, adding electronic control and monitoring to the rotary conversion process. Both Pro-Line and Smart-Boost are manufactured from the same Wisconsin facility.
Is North America Phase Converters still operating after being acquired by American Rotary?
Yes, the company's rotary and static converter products continue to be built from its original New Berlin, Wisconsin facility following the acquisition by American Rotary. The acquisition brought the brand under a larger phase conversion specialist.
How do I size a phase converter for my equipment?
Sizing depends primarily on the horsepower of the largest motor you need to run and whether you'll be running multiple machines simultaneously. North America Phase Converters' technical support team assists customers with system design, including capacity upgrades for growing shops.
