I just bought a huge air distributer. 2000CFM driven by a 5HP electric motor 3450RPM. The motor is like new and must have been recently replaced!

It comes with a really nice filter. My plan was to swap out the 2" thick filter for a really nice HEPA filter to keep my shop dust free. (i dont cut wood or grind/sand).

The unit is actually in mint condition and works perfectly. It came with all the documentation and even the electric schematic for the allen bradely box.

Its wired for 3 phase 460Volt.

On the 5HP motor is clearly states 460V/230V. My shop only has 240V and i want to use it. How do i go about rewiring this thing?

Later today i will go out there with a flashlight since night is coming and try and get pictures of the plaque on the motor.

Thanks guys!
