My machine's state power requirements aren't making sense to anyone

[idtkid]

Just called TemCo, a company who sells phase converters. They too are confused by what my manual says, please can anyone help?

My machine takes 1 input of 3Phase power at 230V

It requires a 20 Amp slow blow fuse at the breaker \
It says it uses 28kVA / (items in question)

The spindle is 700W

I need a phase converter that will sufficiently power my machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The maximum current at 230v 3 phase would be around 104amps for a 28kva supply.
Are you sure it is not 2.8kva?

First time kVA is mentioned in the manual it is 28kVA, next 2 times (found further in the manual) are 2,8 kVA. Ill assume the , is representing a . in this case. If this is true, ill bank on that because the previous breaker it was hooked up to was not 100 amps. Based on this new info what is my current draw?

Thanks Al for suggesting the 28 vs 2.8 as a possibility!!!

European practice is to use comma for decimal point.
a 20 amp slo blow fuse should be ample.
It should draw no more than 10 to 12 amps.
