industrial coffee machine

[tonyjohn]

I've just purchased a 3phase 4.3kw coffee machine, i need to run it of some sort of generator, any recommendations on what generators would be best to accommodate this also at a reasonable price? Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated.

Phone a company that sells generators and.....................

Many commercial coffee machines come with several wiring options that can be changed internally. If the machine is going to be used at anything less than maximum output I'd consider converting it to the single phase option which will mean you need a smaller generator.

that could happily be converted to single phase through internal wiring or a phase converter could be used.

This may be a stupid question, why did you buy a 3Ph coffee machine?

This has to be a wind up.

Mayby its for making triple expresso ?

A generator with a three phase output of the right voltage and frequency would be a good start. Off the top of my head something around the 7/8KVA mark might do, but I'd suggest doing the calculations before committing to a purchase.

Seems to me that the obvious question is why purchase a bit of kit that you don't have a supply for?

One of the decorators at work once bought one of those punchbag machines off of fairgrounds. His missus went mental. He ended up selling it - managed to break even.
A few weeks ago he bought (accidentally, allegedly) a Johnny Depp doll from Japan for £150. The other day he very nearly bought a 7ft Robby the Robot for £51, but got outbid at the last minute, which was good because he realised he didn't have anywhere to put it.

Would be a pretty big handle if it is...
