Title: Hoses, pumps, controllers etc.
Post by: AuRavelling79 on August 18, 2016, 07:42:03 pm

My stuff in the van is getting "tired" having been in place for four years plus and I want to replace within a few months so help please?

Hoses and pumps. What and why?

What hose size from your tank to your pump?
What strainer do you have between them?
What hose size from pump to your reel?
What size resin vessel - if any? And size of inlet and outlet tubes.
What make and flow rate of pump?
What flow controller (if any?)
What inner diameter reel hose?

Thanks!
