When you need a variable frequency drive to turn single-phase 220V input into three-phase output for motor loads, two listings often appear side by side: one leads with "7.5KW," the other with "10HP." Both describe a 7.5KW / 10HP unit, but the listed prices sit $0.50 apart. That raises the question: are you looking at the same drive in different title order, or is there a real difference to justify the gap?
The bottom line: the two listings describe the same 7.5KW / 10HP VFD with the same underlying specs. The only real choice is whether you want the lower listed price or the kilowatt-first title.
| Product title | Listed price | Price bar | Control mode | Input phase |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7.5KW 10HP 220V Single To 3 Phase VFD | USD 158.90 | SPWM | 1 or 3 phase | |
| 10HP 7.5KW 220V Single To 3 Phase VFD | USD 158.40 | SPWM | 1 or 3 phase |
Beyond the price and title order, the confirmed attributes match. Both entries share CE certification, a control mode of SPWM, an input frequency range of 48-63 Hz, and a humidity tolerance of 0-95% relative humidity without dew. The physical dimensions are also the same at 38 x 29 x 29 cm. Each description also cites the same intended uses: constant torque loads such as hard-starting air compressors and HVAC units, plus variable torque loads like pumps and fans, and it can act as both a motor speed control and a phase converter. In short, the only listed difference between the two entries is the order of the capacity descriptors in the title and the price.
Where each listing wins
The "10HP 7.5KW" listing wins on listed price. It is the lower-priced entry in this comparison, so if you're spending your own money and the specs are identical, that is the one that leaves a little more in your pocket.
The "7.5KW 10HP" listing wins on title order. If you're used to seeing kilowatt ratings first, this title will feel more natural at a glance. There is no functional advantage in the confirmed details, but the price difference buys the naming convention you prefer.
Product notes
7.5KW 10HP 220V Single To 3 Phase VFD
Choose this listing if you want the kilowatt-first title and you're comfortable with the slightly higher listed price compared with the HP-first version. Both entries share the same confirmed specs, so the choice is about readability and whether you mind paying a little extra for the metric-first naming. One limitation: the higher listed price means this isn't the more economical of the two when the underlying specs are identical.
10HP 7.5KW 220V Single To 3 Phase VFD
Choose this listing for the lower listed price in this head-to-head. It offers the same confirmed specs as the other entry, so you aren't giving up any listed feature for the savings. The trade-off is the title order: horsepower comes first, so if you think in kilowatts, you'll have to look twice to confirm you're buying the 7.5KW unit.
Final choice by use case
If your budget is the deciding factor, go with the "10HP 7.5KW" listing at the lower listed price. If you prefer a kilowatt-first title and the price difference is not a concern, the "7.5KW 10HP" listing will give you the same confirmed specifications. For most shoppers, these are two ways of buying the same 7.5KW / 10HP 220V single-to-three-phase VFD, so the right pick comes down to how you like the capacity expressed.
