    Buying Commercial Machines and comparison to domestic

    Qualin: I know too much about VFD's, inverters,and the such to use them in a commcercial FL machine. Yes they allow the machines to operate on 1 phase to otherwise power a 3 phase motor. The VFD's you find in the Wascos, Dexters, Alliance crap, etc. are the cheaper made ones in Nema 1X...

    Interestingly ~a year ago I started looking for a replacement for my Primus. For a brand new Wascomat W620, I got a quote of $3845 from a distributor I knew. Mind you that is just for one machine. If I would have bought like 25 of them the price per machine would be lower. Due to an event...

    Here is my 1987 Wascomat FLex-o-matic 184. It is 50# capacity, comes in ~612LB. Build quality is not as good as the Ipsos of its age. Takes ~ 12 min. to fill for hot wash. Uses punch cards, cycles are totally customizable. Can use the machine in manual mode with the buttons on the front.

    The Ipso has 2 pressure switches. One for the wash water level, and the other for the rinse water level. It's a bit of a beast to move around. Here it is next to the W-10 22# 1989 Primus that I had. As far as build quality, they are about the same, execpt the Ipso uses real SS and only the...

    In general I HATE C! I'd probably do the programming in C++ or Assembly.

    The Easy That Wasn't So Easy

    Very nice machine Robert! I'm glad you fixed the motor/trans coupler issue. I really like that timer knob. I was really looking forward to you doing some modifications to it. What's that machine next to it? thor -oXXXX
