ZVS Induction heater 2000W 40A 50V
calexanian:
Lepel is still in business. They are owned by Inductotherm now. The unit I have is tube based but they make fully modern types now. Honestly though i just use the ZVS ones now. Less trouble. Ebay is full of old Lepel tube models, but I would advise against them. Once the insulation on things starts breaking down inside they just dont work right anymore and they are truly a pain to rebuild. Way cheaper and easier to build one like yours. There is a classic circuit in the RCA transmitting tube manual for a 833 type tube based one that was popular back in the day. Its very tricky to get the main coil and tank circuit right, but they evidently worked quite well.

hi, thanks.
I want to use this heater model in 3d printer, can I use it and can go to high temperatures for 600C
strawberry:
Do you mean casting metal in 3D printed molds .. Yes it could be possible, by now I have not tried to melt something with induction heater.

Thank you Strawberry for sharing with us your project! I would be interested what quantity of nonferrous metal can you melt with this heater in a alumina crucible ? I would like to use it with a AEG SAFT NIFE 50V/34A power supply if it is suitable ?
