Now I have to find someone who can wire it into my panel rolleyes.gif

2 stage compressor? Good score. The 3 phase converters are kinda high dollar by themselves.

Posted by: Mueller Apr 4 2005, 10:17 PM

damn....and it came with the rotary converter????

good catch !!!!!

You could sell the rotary converter for more money than a new single phase motor would cost you, that would make it more efficient in your single phase house.

agree.gif But why waist your time with all of that Rich. Besides, that whole set probably wouldn't look good in your garage anyway. You should just give it to me. biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

That is a score! I have been keeping my eyes out for something like that to hook up to my blaster too. Nice.

guys, i am sorry but i burst his bubble last night. i talked to him about what he needs to do to hook it up and it draws 100 amps at single phase, and he only has a 100 amp panel in his house. so to make a long story short his free be might cost him between 700 and 2 grand to get completely hooked up.

i think that compressor is a lot bigger than it looks in the pictures he posted

Ah man, just climb up the nearest pole and tie in biggrin.gif

The 'lectricty company will never suspect until the lights in town dim.

Scott thanks for the advice, perhaps we'll talk a little more at the WCC about that plane ticket wink.gif

With a monster like that you'd want to keep it phase 3, electricity will be cheaper to run it (If I understand that right)

Didn't think houses had 3 phase. But 220 VAC should work if you can get a breaker wired up.

BTW my house is rigged for 300 amp service. biggrin.gif I already got a big ass compressor that I need to wrassle to the work shop. 40 gallon upright two piston pump with a motor that puls 30 amps. Snad blast cabinet...... yea that's a good idea idea.gif

Posted by: Travis Neff Apr 5 2005, 11:25 AM

Houses generally don't have phase 3 service, but you CAN get the service. big bux though I am sure, but if you have a serious shop.... Just like when you first started out and 110v wasn't enough

Posted by: rdauenhauer Apr 14 2005, 12:00 AM

Well whaddaya know... I chked my panel tonight just on a lark and I was Wrong! It is a 200 amp panel (if Im reading this right) its a "Challenger SB-20 200Amp indoor Type 1" panel smilie_pokal.gif

Posted by: rdauenhauer Apr 14 2005, 12:00 AM
