You got that for free? Wow. Not sure what you would do with a guy that big if it doesn't have a load bank to absorb a huge lack of a big percentage of a necessary load unless you've got a big load to feed. Our units in the military used to use 60Ks, and we'd have to dial in the load banks to get them up to about 70% - 75% load to keep them stable at times when we didn't have near enough equipment draw.
Well, she's a fantastic looking unit made by one very reputable manufacturer, worth some $$$, and she belongs to you.
I used to have an industrial grade 100 gallon Quincy air compressor that had two heads powered by 208 3-phase that I got for free. That things was worth a fortune. I saw it setting and jokingly said "I'd like to have that". It was used once on a trading floor, their intent to cut costs of having to sweep the trading floor every night by simply blowing the papers and stuff into a corner, and pick it up. The first time they tried it, it blew the good papers and everything off of the desks in the booths. It was a disaster, so they took it up to the 40th floor and stuck it in a dark corner of a machine room, where I saw it and jokingly said I wanted it. They took me serious and were on me forever until I finally came and got it. It took 6 guys to load it into my pickup from a loading dock, and about that to unload in my then Romeoville garage. That thing was so big that I couldn't give it away to gas stations, small mechanical businesses. It sat in the corner of my garage taking up space for a couple of years until I put it on casters, rolled it down to the street and put a sign on it that read "Free for the taking, but don't you dare try to bring it back". Guys were fighting over it, but someone won and took it. 20 years later, I wish I had it back in one of the barns. 100 gallon, evaperator, two heads, two motors rewired for 220...mostly for free? Hey, its like not needing a cruise ship until you become the captain of one, so you give it away, and years down the road, dang could use that thing now.
