I know its a long shot but... anyone got 2No Bosch GPA 750w motors for sale?
PK's back :-)
Ellis components, derby, while they have some left, as they have stopped making them !
Wow been a long time PK, nice to see you back
If you cant find any bosch's, maybe the budget Mag/ampflow motors will do, not sure how they compare to bosch

Thanks Jonno, first place I checked was Ellis and they still have them listed. Got my originals from there. Would prefer a good used set that have already been prepped but if needs must...
Hi Adam - hope you and Dan are still well. Ahhh - the good old days come back to mind...too much beer...headaches and burnt sausages on BBQ's :lol:
I have actually looked at those motors you linked to but wasnt sure - the stats look ok but do you know anyone thats got them in a HW?
PM me your/Dans number ill give you a tinkle sometime soon. Lost all my numbers in a phone that was nicked and it had all my numbers from the old days.
Tally Ho
PK
They have stopped making the bosch 750?!?
Yep !! Stopped making them and no direct replacement according to Marler.
Once the stock has gone, that's it !!!!
correct....
bosch will soon cease to make this motor and they are not going to replace it so Ellis only have a certain amount then they're gone
Well that's heavyweights screwed then :p
Hardly, people will just have to find different things to run them on eventually, but for the price maybe less so
I believe the 750 was originally made for Lorry refrigerant compressors, so unless we're all getting warm shopping delivered there must be a successor/equivalent alternative?
or as with everything these refrigation units have been redesigned and so dont need such a motor anymore
Called Ellis earlier and had a chat - still got quite a few in stock. Trade price is £88 i think he said. With the VAT and delivery its 216 nicker for 2 units to you lot thank you please. In fact i think for the power thats still great value.
That is if no now has any tucked away in the back of the garage - but its not looking good from the reply's.
Iskra AMG 800/1200W are reasonable replacements. These are motors used for hydraulic pump-groups.
A tad heavier, but sturdier build.
The ampflow E series is also an alternative. The E30-400 is only a tad weaker than a bosch 750. Nothing that can't be solved with overvolting and a good gearratio.
Didnt think those Ampflo liked being over volted - like a Mag.
But im not up on them much after a 7 year absence.
Do they need any prepping like the GPA does?
