It's not actually 230V in Europe, it's 400V. Between each pair of the three phases, that is, between phase and neutral there's 230V. (If there's a neutral and you don't create it locally, different topic).
...but I'd actually have different doubts about using the whole thing in the US: Your plugs. Schukos aren't meant for the purpose and only code for up to 800W when used to backfeed. That's almost 1/5th of their 1 hour continuous rating. With those flimsy tinfoil plugs you have you're going to need special outlets, or hard-wire them.
