wouldn't there need to be a 3 phase power installed for this to run in a home environment?......
I found a big load dryer from a hotel laundry once....timer settings for drying and cooling.....a gas unit....but couldn't get it thru the doors into the house....what rotten luck....but it did operate off regular 110... |

Tag shows it as single phase 240v service. An inverter or phase converter isn't too hard to rig up if one really wants to run something 3-phase at home in any case.
Seems to have a slow spin speed. The brochure I have for Huebsch soft mount machines shows their 35lb class machine spinning at 1000RPM. |

Just have an electrician wire a 15-20A 240V outlet in your homee to run the machine.The nameplate indicates the machine is for single phase 240V-should be fused for 20A.Bet it would work on a standard 15A 240V line. |

I suppose one could construct a heavy pedestal to bolt it to. But with a machine this size you'd likely need concrete to get enough weight so it would be like pouring a slab. The drainage requirements would be easier, just need a big transfer pump.
The better solution would be to get a big commercial soft mount machine. Huebsch has a line from 18 to 165 lb. They all spin quite a bit faster then this machine also. I'd have to bet the cost for the soft mount is a lot higher though. I got a quote for an 18lb machine and it was over $4000! They sure are attractive though... |
