Title: Any Powr-Flite PFX1350 Owners
Post by: Eddie_Rhone on April 25, 2012, 07:34:30 pm

Hi

Been looking this machine, which I believe is a 1 cord machine. Am i right in assuming it has 2 Lamb Ametek 117123-00 motors with a Pumptec 205V pump, these are listed on Amtechs website as spare parts. There is 1/2 HP motor listed in the spares section but unable to see what it is. Can anyone shed anylight on this motor.

The reason I'm asking is I'm trying to find out what the amp draw is on this machine as it appears to be over 13 amps, is the 13amp limit really a myth and what is reality.

regards

eddie

I run one of these too just make sure you dont plug both leads in one socket as it will trip the fuseboard  ;D

Sorry when I said 1 cord I meant for the vacs and pump I understand a 3kw heater is on the other cord.

Anyone know what motor drives the solution pump.

Regards

Eddie

each three stage about 7 amps max (  amp draw will decrease with restriction so fluctuate during machine use )
pumptec , about one to two amps
No doesn't matter if its over 13amps on a cord .

cord one   about 15 amps max
cord two  13.5 amps ( 3000w heater )
