I need to splice several fifteen conductor 18ga stranded cables in one junction box. With so many different connectors available, it is difficult to find which one would be best for the job. Can someone make a recommendation on the best connector to use?

Just throwing out an idea. Is your pre authorization set higher than your most expensive wash?

I was thinking of using this stainless manifold for a direct-fed rinse application. The stainless pipe has a 1-inch opening on the inlet and the outlets are 3/8. I will be configuring this for 7 bays, cat 2120 pmps, 3HP motors, and 2505 wand tips. Additionally the high-pressure soap and wax will...

Are you saying that the pump has two inlets, one for hot one for cold? Their online brochure only shows one inlet for rinse the other inlet is for the regulator bypass. Hence the confusion.

What am I missing, it seems like the rinse tank outlet is directly connected to the pump inlet.

I was looking at a Carolina Pride brochure and it appeared that they use a hyrominder to fill their rinse tank. Is this correct or am I missing something? Also, it appears that they only use one storage tank for all wash related functions. If this is the case, then I presume that the entire wash...

Is it worth the time and effort to change the bearings on twenty year old 3 hp Baldor motors? Replacement motors are around $1000 and a set of replacement bearings cost around $20. The motors are currently installed on a plant that I am rebuilding and will put into service so it would be ideal...

My knowledge regarding Dilling & Harris equipment is very limited. Was the Extreme series one of D/H better pieces of equipment? In terms of an equipment upgrade, would it be decent choice? I have no documentation and any info or opinion on this equipment would be appreciated.

that is exactly what I was trying to say. I would imagine this works for lower pressures but may prevent the plunger to open at some elevated pressure.

Is this because you are applying pressure in the same direction as the solenoid plunger spring and not against it?

LOL, You must be kidding!

Thanks! How do you go about testing the valves (Cat 5CP2120)?

Is it really necessary to install a check valve so that weep water does not flow back through the pump head to the gravity fed storage tanks? I was having a conversation with a fellow operator and he said the pump valves will not prevent the back flow of weep water. I once had a wash where the...

Who makes the best transformer? Been comparing Micron and Acme Electric transformers. Need 208 /24. Was planning on tapping power from the motor starter input. Encapsulated or not? Enclosure is 3R

Just received our new LP manifolds. Thought you fabricators would appreciate this. My son and I are building a dream pumping plant.

One of my Cryptopay readers stopped reading cards. So I took a label/tag, shown in the picture, folded it, and moistened it with rubbing alcohol. After several passes through the reader, it works like a champ. Hopefully, I didn't damage it.

Refurbishing a pumping plant and need to update the existing control panel/box. The panel will house the transformer, motor starters, etc. The panel will be attached to the side of the plant frame similar to National Pride’s setup. Does the control panel need to be NEMA 3R or will a 1R be...

I have been looking at different unions, preferably stainless or brass, what unions do you use?

I believe Washworld manifolds are fabricated using Flow Drilling (aka friction drilling). The molten metal is displaced to form a sleeve that can tapped. Youtube has a good video showing this.
