< The company I work for, is getting rid of their welder (we dont have
the power for it anymore). Its a Hobart MB-304 300 amp DC welder. 40 volts,
60% duty cycle with a 20 amp motor built in. It requires 240/440 VAC, 3
phase, at 52/26 amps. I think this style of unit is called a "Torpedo". Its
on wheels and has a wagon type pull handle. It works good but is usless to
us, (we're replacing it with a 225 amp miller ac/dc welder / 8000 watt
generator)
Sometimes those 3-phase welders can be converted to single phase just by
changing out the fan motor. Maybe someone else knows more about this.
