Ok I was down at HF getting shop supplies and lo and behold they had another 9500 watt inverter genny sitting there as a return for $1599.99. So I grabbed it. I bought the first as a return for the same price.
So anyways this weekend I was planning to set up the first one we have for woodgas and while in that process I pulled the cover to see how those parallel ports are wired inside. Turns out they wire splice directly into the 220 legs on the output. You dont even need them!!
So went down to Lowes picked up two twist lock 220 plugs, 10 foot of 4 wire cable and 50 amp 220 receptacle and matching plug for the shop side. When you combine the two cables you want this larger receptacle to get the wires to fit into the terminals of the receptacle so you dont need to splice anything. Plenty big enough, wired it all up stuffed it in the box and ready to go.
Plugged everything in and fired both of em up!! I got the green light on both and so far everything in the shop is working without issues. So then I turned and looked at that 8750 we have. hhhhmmmmmm I wonder if that is parallel capable? Ah the heck with it!!! I have five days to test it and can return the the new 9500 lol. So plugged that 8750 in and fired her up. Got the green light on both and everything worked.
So I bet you could probably run two 8750’s together. When you fire these inverter generators up, they do a little thinking before they supply power. I bet part of that is they self detect and automatically sync phase.
So next will be to set the other one up for woodgas and Ill run both in tandem of the DFX-S3 demo unit. This will be test if it can run higher displacement. Now we have power on demand and should be able to run all of our equipment on pure woodgas if we need to.
