My thoughts and methods
I've been reading some of the new and old threads. Gosh, methods for metal preparation are many and varying depending on paint type and thickness you are trying to remove. Basically, I use two methods, scaling and blasting. The needle scaler is my main stay method. Sand...
Thanks Triple Jim. Doing a good referb of my MEP 003 is in the project pipeline. I had to make new injector lines for it after I bought. A couple of them were slightly touching the engines cooling fins and rubbed hole in them. I will keep you regulator in mind.
Right. Maybe this topic is kinda like adding a turbo to the NHC 250. You can experiment and do it, but the cost vs. benefit is not that great. So, concerning my situation and my MEP-003a, probably best to use the 120/240 single phase method unless something or some power configuration need...
I believe what you are describing is what I'm talking about. I believe the 3 phase transformer is what I priced at around $2500. It's a big transformer if you want 30 amps at 240 out. It's been over a year since I researched what I might need. In the beginning, I thought I was going to scrounge...
I do have military split-pack HVAC unit. The condenser has a mounting flange that is made for tractor trailer mounting. Looks like a refrigeration unit. The air handler is a rack mount unit. It will do 208/220.
Sorry, my bad! :-o I mean rated for 220/208. I was thinking either/or. Configurable or switch-able would apply to a welder or power supply. I do have two industrial motors that handle either voltage. I will have to look again, but I believe there is a wiring diagram on the data plate. I don't...
I like the idea of running in the native three phase mode for maximum generator efficiency, but is that really a factor here, or now days? So, I know I'm good running at 120/240 single phase 99% of the time, but lets say I have have some motor loads in the shop requiring 208v or 220v...
I have a MEP 003A. I believe most of the military generators have three power configurations.
120V single phase
120/240 single phase
120/208 three phase
You "must" select 120/240 single phase if you are hooking it up to a house or panel box "bus" wired for single phase. There are only three...
