    Can I use this 3 phase switch for single phase motor?

    Here is the exact switch. It’s to a vintage causing 15 inch drill press. https://www.ebay.com/itm/395714996987?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=aM7yldjKQd2&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=tPGaX1P-TNm&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

    Can I use this 3 phase switch for single phase motor?

    Hello, I am replacing a 3 phase motor for a single phase 115 V motor and want to know if this Cutler Hammer switch will run my single phase motor: The 3 phase switch I’d like to keep using says (see photo): MAX 1-1/2 H.P. 115V. 3PH. 2 H.P. 230/575V. 3PH Will this switch run either of these...

    Feedback on strength of shop press

    The best way I can describe the yellow vertical pieces are .25 inch steel plate with squares cut out and with 1/4 inch C-channel welded on each side (with horizontal pieces welded in for support. I was also having reservations with the red square tube I initially mentioned so I am using .75...

    Feedback on strength of shop press

    Wow… is that 1x13 (and 3/4x6) on both the front and the back? So I’m assuming there are 2 plates of those sizes on the press. I guess there is a difference between enough technically and bulletproof. I’m assuming that a safety factor of 2:1 would mean no bending or deformation of the tool but...

    Feedback on strength of shop press

    I have access to steel I would like to use in making a 30 ton shop press. I do not know specs of the yellow upright channel but I am not worried about it being strong enough. I am wanting a 2:1 safety margin for the press. Im particularly interested to verify if the red upper cross members and...

    Capacitor Wiring Question

    Thanks everyone for your help here. Based on these responses, I plan to still use that new capacitor and put nothing on the F terminal, and just use the C and HERM for the compressor. I’ll purchase a separate dedicated 7.5 mf capacitor for the fan. Two capacitors out, two capacitors in. I...

    Help Reading 12 Volt Wiring Schematic

    Thanks everyone for your help. I know this was a while ago, but wanted to follow up that I indeed burned out the optical sensor and the relay. I sent it in for returns, got it back and bench tested before installing. If you’re interested, here is a video of the device. It’s too long, the last...

    Would do so but have fuel in the aux tank. Will test when I can run down the current level of gas. Luckily the pump and everything runs just fine without this relay/sensor.

    Steve, This sensor is installed on an auxiliary fuel tank the fills my main fuel tank. When I hit a button in the cab, the auxiliary fuel tank discharges directly into my main fuel tank until it reaches the sensor (installed on the bottom of the aux fuel tank). Edit: sorry, I think I’m not...

    With just common (1) hooked up and 6, 9, 12 hooked up to 12 bolts, yes I have voltage between 5 and 1 when on. When off I have no voltage. Sensor rated for gasoline which is my application. Auxiliary fuel tank for my Toyota Tundra so it shuts off before over filling.

    Thank you Steve, that’s good to know. And likely the reason I think it’s not working. I probably fried it. I thought that completed the ground part of a status light, so I wired an LED... the positive of the LED was hooked to my battery circuit, and I ran the black / negative to terminal 5...

    Help Reading 12 Volt Wiring Schematic

    Hello, I am using the module show in this wiring diagram. It’s basically a 12 volt relay that uses a sensor to shut off a fuel pump when the gasoline is empty. I can’t get this to run properly. Can anyone tell me if the wires going to terminals 10 and 5 need to be grounded? I assumed the...

    How Much Oil for this Air Compressor Pump

    Hello- I purchased the air compressor depicted in the attached photos. It needed a new pressure switch which was an easy replacement. The compressor is ugly but it works. Drained the oil to lay it horizontally in my truck. My question is this: There is no clear window on the pump and I can’t...
