Fronius cooler conversion

[Cheesie]

Can anyone help I want to convert this to suit my tig guessing I'll need to buy a 230v pump

@Richard. should be in the know for this

I would check the rating of the cooling fan as well (or any transformer feeding it) and check the coil voltage on the relay if you are planning to use it

Not really much to know.
OP has answered his own question.
400v 3 phase pump ain’t gonna run off the garage supply.

Just watched a video on making a 3phase motor run on single phase using capacitors but it's the fan ect, the cooler has been lying in work for almost 10 years, the welder itself must be 15-17 years old, it's seen 3 work premises, I asked the latest boss could I try and see if I can get it to work, I don't want to wreck it, it's even a close colour match to my lorch

You can make 3 phase motors on single phase supplies people do it with lathes and drills all the time but it’s probably easier and cheaper to swap that pump out with a single phase unit.
As for the fan it’s definitely not worth worrying about. They are quite cheap

Thank you Richard any recommendations

Yeah I’d put a single phase pump in identical to the one that’s sitting there. Ceme mtp600 would sit in there perfectly.
Probably cost you about £130 ish.
