Sherman has SC 60N60FD1 IGBT and the IGBT from the Weldinger is unbranded

Can anyone advise me on which hose connector (at the rear) I need to purchase please?

Is it Rectus 21?

 

[Hood]

Yes it is Rectus 21 but did you not get one with the welder?

 

[ljkenny]

Don't think so.

Didn't receive any additional connectors and my old R-Tech has a different (threaded) connection.

 

[Hood]

I am sure I got one in the box that had the electrode etc in it.

 

[Hood]

Just looked back at the pic I posted when I got mine and the rectus 21 female fitting is in the box, see pic below.

 

[ljkenny]

Oh, it's with the Consumables. ‍

 

[ljkenny]

Okay, next n00b question.

Has anyone lopped off the European plug?

Do the internal wires fit inside a standard UK 13a 3-pin?

When I go into weldes.de it says I can't put in an order because it thinks I'm in usa... Long way to usa from Sweden

I chopped the plug off but don't have it in a 13A 3 pin so not sure how easily they will fit.

Why wouldn't it? The uk cords I have cut to put a euro plug to hasn't been a problem.

Probably you would like to put a new cord to it anyway to get at least 5m

Because it's FAT.

It's going on a welding trolley, so no need for a longer cable.

Seconded. I also lopped mine off but put a PCE 16A on instead. The cable is 2.5mm sq so may be a squeeze in some 13A plugs, both for terminals and clamping.

Even an MK duraplug says 1.5 mm CSA (though I think that's probably pessimistic)

Have you considered a schuko adapter with earth, as a few have used. E.g.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01N6QC1I5
I used one of these on a sherman MIG and it works well (up to 13A, obviously )

No doubt available cheaper elsewhere, just check it's got the earth pin connected through.

 

[ljkenny]

I have considered it, yes.

But I would like to use it today if at all possible.

 

[DavidL]

If you're in a rush and tomorrow is too far away, put a 16A plug on it and then make up a 16A-13A lead?

Perhaps a little more expensive, but all readily available from your local Screwfix.

Or just try the 13A plug and have the above as a fallback
