Luke,
I'd recommend going with a 3-phase motor and then add a VFD. Not only will
this allow single-phase operation, but will let you vary the speed. I'd
check surplus places because it's going to be much cheaper than Grainger.
The starting place is a NEMA frame chart:

I'm also working on converting a gas powered chipper to electric power
(likely powered via a NEMA 14-50 outlet).
This is mostly a paper design / BOM at this point, but I'm really tired of
the noisy/smelly/messy gasoline engine in this thing.
This device uses a Viper 212CC gasoline motor. Accordi

You might want to look at the motors from http://motenergy.com. I used
their ME1007 to repower the snowblower on my Electric Ox and it has
served me very well. They have a bunch of 4.8kW motors running at
3000-3600rpm, which matches your needs. They would certainly be

Hi,
The last piece of gas-powered equipment I have is a Simplicity

drawback is the gas engine, which is an 8HP Briggs & Stratton 4-stroke
