Miller Electric Engine-Driven Welder/AC Generator Welding System User Manual


 
To select a generator that has enough power output in watts, add the watts
for the items you want to simultaneously run. Tools and appliances with
induction motors may require 3–7 times the listed wattage when starting.
All data listed is approximate—check your tool/appliance for specific
wattage requirements.
Bobcat 3 Phase will easily start and run the following equipment:

The Bobcat Generator Power Advantage
Tools and motors are designed to operate within 10% of
120/240/480 VAC. The Bobcat’s power generator provides strong
power while keeping the voltage within 10% of 120/240/480 VAC.
This increases tool/motor performance and life.
Accu-Rated
– Not Inflated Generator Power
Miller’s Accu-Rated
11,000 watts of
usable
peak power is delivered for a
minimum of 30 seconds. Accu-Rated means peak power is usable for
maximum generator loads such as plasma cutting, Millermatics and motor
starting. Accu-Rated peak power beats the competition’s very short-duration
peak or surge power. Use your peak power, it’s more than a number.
Smooth Power – Not Spike Power
Revolutionary ten-degree skewed-rotor design
optimizes generator performance for smoother
power—not spiked power found with other
brands. Better power—better performance.
Fuel Consumption Data
12-gallon fuel capacity.
On a typical job using 1/8-in 7018 electrodes (125 amps, 20% duty cycle)
expect about 20 hours of operation.
Welding at 150 amps at 40% duty cycle uses approxi mately 3/4 gallon
per hour— about 16 hours of operation.
Under a continuous load of 4000 watts of generator power, the Bobcat
would run for about 14 hours.
