Title: S2000 Amp Draw??
Post by: mah on January 27, 2013, 02:14:41 AM
Does anyone know how many Amps an S2000 will draw?

Planning to power 25-30 machines.  I can go up to a 30 Amp breaker in the distribution box and trying to determine how many lines I will have to run.

I'm not an electrician but I know to only go about 80% of the capacity.

Thanks.

With or without hoppers?

With no hoppers I would not suggest no more than 12 per 30 amp breaker if they are to be played at the same time. More if you are not.
I am currently running 4 alphas with 20" monitors, two poker machines with crt, three bally 6000, and three s2000 on a single 15 amp circuit. Turn them all on with a light switch at once. Alphas in steps, but no blown breakers yet.

Thanks for the advice.  I'm all coinless.

I will search for the post as well.

Manual states that the average amps is 2.3 for an S2000 upright.

Using a 30 amp circuit.

80% of full load = 24 amps

(24 / 2.3) = 10 machines on 30 amp
