Kompakte elektrische Holzhackmaschine 4hp Direktantrieb FM4DDE

Hallo,

Thank you for your inquiry! The Forest Master FM4DDE Compact Electric Wood Chipper is powered by a 4 HP (2800-watt) motor. Given that it operates on standard household electricity (230-240V), you can estimate the current draw with the following calculation:

Current (Amps) = Power (Watts) / Voltage (Volts)

For our chipper:

Current = 2800W / 230V ≈ 12.17A

This means the wood chipper draws approximately 12.17 amps during normal use.

As this is close to the limit for standard UK 13-amp plugs, we include a 10-amp circuit trip to as well as a slow blow fuse to prevent any issues with blowing fuses when the machine starts up.

If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out!

Die Gesamtmaße des Elektrohäckslers betragen 910 × 390 × 780 mm (L x B x H)

Die Version der UE ist noch nicht fertig, aber bald werden neue Versionen erscheinen, voraussichtlich am 10.05.23.

Thank you for your detailed feedback and for sharing your calculations. Your points are well-taken and contribute significantly to a nuanced understanding of the situation.

It's important to clarify that my original comment was aimed at providing a conservative estimate to help prepare buyers for a worst-case scenario. By presenting these figures, our intention was to ensure there are no surprises, especially in critical or extended use situations.

Moreover, the figures I used also take into account factors like the start-up current draw of induction motors, which can be significantly higher than the running current. This start-up spike can lead to a greater voltage drop, albeit momentarily, which is critical to consider for motor health over time.

Additionally, while thinner cables might be rated for certain conditions, they often experience higher losses when they're extended over long distances and under continuous load, hence our recommendation for thicker cable and ensuring it is used fully unwound to minimize resistance and heat buildup.

We appreciate your engagement and the opportunity to clarify these points. Our goal is always to ensure the longevity and efficient operation of the equipment we recommend. Please feel free to reach out if there are more insights or concerns you’d like to discuss.
