Adding a VFD to a non-VFD Motor

The single-phase motor supplied in Diktator’s single-speed package is not compatible with the VFD packages we supply. Do not buy the single-speed package on the assumption that adding a VFD later is a simple upgrade.

If you want variable speed

Choose a matched motor-and-VFD package. If you already own a single-speed motor, a variable-speed upgrade may require replacing the motor as well as adding the correct drive.

For a motor from another supplier, send the complete motor rating label to support@diktatorgrinder.com. We cannot confirm compatibility from horsepower or shaft size alone.
