I purchased the following Chinese spindle motor, and got some bad advice on the VFD. The VFD is a KBMA-24D series from KB Electronics, which is obviously incompatible because it will not source 400 Hz.
The motor I have uses German bearings and claims low runout. The specs are:
Product information
Technical Details

Part Number: USTS0811FG

The VFD the Rep now suggests, again, does not source 400 Hz, and costs nearly $400, so I thought I'd try getting advice from the forum. I would prefer running the VFD with 120V/60Hz input voltage if that is all possible, but if not I can drop another 240V line in my shop. I have a limited budget so I don't want to end up with another VFD that doesn't drive this motor.
