you wont get very far with a system of discombobulated devices such as this.
How on earth is Hobart 800 amp Pipeliner welding machine a discombobulated device??
Second as an industrial tech I can assure you your peak load power levels are way past what a set of 48 volt 1000 amp cat batteries and any type of synchronous inverter you could possibly ever afford let alone synchronized to a mere 1500 watt base reference point will handle or work with.
Your understanding fails on this point again. The hobart welder can produce 200 amps per person and you will have 250 amp surge (1000 /4 )protection. That is 450amps. What on earth do you need to weld with 450amps. Per person?? The hobart machine is already designed for two welder capable of air arcing at 400 amps each.
Most welders (guys) have an 80 % efficiency rating. That means four guys will use a potential of 1800 combined amps ( battery and welder). 80% of the time So at an average of 120 amps x4 = 480 amps x 80% = 384 amps leaving 1416 amps for welding surge and/or auxiliary inverted power. You can weld with a car battery and an alternator so why would you have trouble with this? Besides 48 volts is more that you need. Dialed in at 36 volts that leaves you right there with 25% more voltage power.
I've already told u, I do not need to synchronize the inverter any more. U do not seem to be able to grasp that idea.
1000 amps translates to 100 amps of inverted ac power. No grid no exciter NO SYCRONIZER and that is very affordable. Ive already stated ...on ng power at 5.00 gj what's the problem?
For one the peak AC load demands being supplemented by a set of batteries and an inverter concept you are way off on your numbers in so many ways it bothers me.
How on earth can 4 guys use more than 100 amps of ac inverted power when they are welding 80% of the time. ??
To be honest if it was me trying this I would set up one dedicated welding station ran solely off of a stock NG fueled engine driven welder and see what the realistic operating costs plus inconveniences add up to for a month.
Like I said these are rough numbers. If my Hobart is designed for 2x400amps why can't it work 4x200 amps. Even if you realize 120amp has a margin of 80 amps extra. Further reduced by 80%=96amp usage. That leaves you with 104 amp extra with out the batteries. Add the surge protection of batteries 1000 amps divide by the unlikely hood all 4 guys all needing the surge protection at the same time , =1000divided by 4 is 250 plus the extra 104 amps, it is very unlikely all four guys will use all 354amps each all at the same time. This leaves lots of surge protection and power for the inverted ac off of the batteries. Does that not make sense?
When you are not using the full output of the co gen system the meter does run back wards but when you use more power than your co gen system produces the meter runs forward taking that power back you put on it earlier just like charging and discharging a battery but its being done with your full three phase AC power system
I understood you would need some pretty expensive switches in case the grid goes down and it's not easy to get commissioned to do that.
all the complicated batteries, inverters, control systems and what not costing you more operating money and loosing overall system efficiency.
That's the beauty of my system it is very simple, all you need is an inverter and 4 cat batteries. Ng is so cheap the loss of efficiency from the batteries (30 40% is more than compensated for with 200,000 btu of hot water. The coefficient of performance supplements any losses.
Thanks
