SRSG Newbie questions
Message text written by INTERNET:tesla@pupman.com
>Hello,
I'm preparing to build a SRSG that can handle up to 2 - 2.5 KW:
What determines the diameter of the disk I should be spinning? I have seen
many in the range of 7" - 12" Which size is correct?
My next question is about motor HP. How much HP do I need?
I'm handling 6-8kW with an async 390BPS. disc is about 8* diameter.
1/4 HP would be sufficent.
I'm using a 1/2 HP modified electric grinder which works well.
Another trick that I use -
is that instead of using 8 rotating electrodes and 2 stationary
electrodes, I use 4 rotating electodes and 2 sets of stationary
electrodes offset by 45 degrees.
