I have a Cielle CNC router that I'm retrofitting and need to figure out what VFD I need to run the spindle but the motor tag does not appear to have a HP rating on it. It is Italian though so I don't know; maybe it's there and I'm missing it.
Motor tag below for reference. Any help?

Greetings,
Google is your friend.
Search "1.7 kw to HP"
I get 2.3 HP, at the higher rpm.
Cheers,
Dave
