There is a big industry of the rotary frequency converters or as they called ‘Cascade converters”. They convert 50, 60, 400Hz or whatever is necessary. There are also the 60Hz-60Hz converters that specifically designed to provide a complete isolation between the load and input power, eliminating voltage fluctuations, switching transients and any line noise. Georator does it and a few others…
The point is that such a devise for a couple to a few kW, single phase, made specifically to operate at low speed, with magnetic suspension instead of bearing is really a table-top size devise and it could be as quiet as something that could be positioned in another room. I am sure that that devises ease somewhere for labs purposes and could be bought used for a $200. I would love to try something like this….
