These 440 volt are the original generators used to power the old Murtoa inland freezer Works from 1908
These generators were used to provide power for the electric motors and fans, 110 volt dc ran the Lights.

Technical data:
The 440v produced 52amp at 1070 revolutions
The 110v produced 5,5Kva
They are compound wound due to the variation in load, which helped keep the voltage relatively constant as the load changed.


Wimmera Inland Freezer Works also provided power to Murtoa
These have been restored by Dale Watts
with help from the Monday working bee members.
