Does the pump draw more power than the vac on a prochem galaxy
« on: June 02, 2015, 12:27:52 pm »
A weird question I know. Does anyone know whether the pump draws more power then the vac on a galaxy. i have just come from a job where the pump instantly tripped the fuse board in the house but now i am home it is completly fine. The vac was fine though. I wonder if they have dodgy electrics.

No, pump is likely 1-2amps and vacs 5-6 amps each in most machines. The pump has likely developed a fault causing the problem

is it leaking slightly or has it got damp, sensitive RCD`s in new builds will trip out buy an RCD plug and this will trip when there is a fault rather than customers electrics.
