I have a Cincinnati Bickford 21" Super Service and a Baldor grinder that I want to run in my shop. Both are 3 ph and run on 308v. I am also wanting to also get a lathe which will be 3 ph in the 3 hp range.
I have a couple 10 hp and a 20 hp 3ph motors I can use as idlers. I have already started putting together the frame to hold one of the 10hp idler's and have mounted my control box. I have also fabricated a bracket that can hold a pony motor if needed to help start the unit.
I have already ordered a kit from WNY supply that is supposed to have all the parts needed to start and run my new 10hp rpc. That is if they ever get off their butts and ship the kit out...I ordered it the beginning of last week and they still haven't shipped it out yet.
Anyway, what I am wondering is what voltage motor will I be able to run off my rpc, or what determines the voltage you can expect to get out of one of these units? Is the input voltage you have supplying the idler or is it the way the idler motor is wired? I hope that makes sense. Thanks!!
