Here is the key electrical information for the 4-station carousel heat press (standard single-head model with one heating platen rotating over four bottom platens):
• Voltage: 220V single phase
• Power: 2700W
• Amps: Approximately 13-15 Amps (calculated at 2700W or 3000W / 220V).
• Maximum Temperature: 500°F
• This machine requires a dedicated 220V single-phase circuit.
We recommend a 20A or 30A breaker for safety and to accommodate any startup surge.
• It can use a standard NEMA 6-20 or similar plug
• The machine is pneumatic and requires a separate air compressor (not included): minimum 800W (1 HP) with at least a 30L (8-gallon) tank, operating at 0.6–0.8 MPa (90–120 PSI).
The primary power draw comes from the single heating element. Pneumatic rotation and controls use minimal additional power.
Please check the data plate on the actual machine for the exact voltage, wattage, and amperage rating, as minor variations can occur between batches.
If you need help with wiring requirements, breaker sizing, compressor recommendations, please consult your electrician and city and state requirements.
