Extra outlet on tank?
« on: September 29, 2014, 04:57:14 pm »
Does anyone know if you can fit extra outlets to a brodex system for a pressure washing outlet? That or put in a tee piece before a pump maybe? I don't have the system in front of me as I'm in turkey  ;D

Cheers

Should be alright using a tee piece plus a tap😉

Have you done that with yours Darran? I'm just scared of starving the PW pump, especially with the trailer mount as that's 21lpm

Yes I have and my PW is also 21 lpm.

However on system I have 19mm outlet pipe (mdpe) and use a tee to draw off then another tee as the PW is twin feed.

No shortage of water, although it works it way through a 1000 ltrs quickly !!

Depends what pressure washer you use, half inch pipe might not feed it fast enough. I had a T for my Kranzle but it only uses about five litres a minute I seem to remember.

I just stick the suction hose in through the top at the minute but the plan is to have twin tanks so i can fill one with pure then another to use the ro waste for pressure washing.
