What is a good VA size for an individual transformer for each bay in a self-serve? And can a bad transformer vary in its output, or are the either working or not working?

I think the head may have been bad from the beginning since that particular valve had a v notch in it about a week after it was installed, can't argue with Cat because they will always blame it on something else, i installed 3 530's at the same time and had problems with only this one, but...

My issue was that I had a pump that failed in a short time under optimal conditions, I wanted to know what was the probable cause, since I didn’t know that cavitation and washout occurred under different conditions, I wanted to know the correct term for the pumps failure, so I could try to...

I didn't say it he did.

I talked to Bob Dehoff at IDS today and he said that washout and cavitation are the same thing. I'm going to call Cat tomorrow to see what they think.

I am talking about where the valve seats on the high pressure or outlet side. I thought the term washout and cavitation were the same.

Right, so the top 3 valves are the high pressure and the lower valves are the inlet, low pressure. I don't think i have ever seen cavitation on the inlet side of the pump.

On a 530 cat pump, when the head washes out is it always on the high pressure side?

T-5 Flouescent Fixtures I have some 4' t-5 lights purchased from KR about 4 years ago, since then i guess they have changed who they purchase these lights from and they are not compatible with the older lights, the problem i am having is that the clips in the pictures are breaking and they...

I think Jim G has the best box with 7 gauge shell and faceplate, I don’t know if he is offering the cryptopay cc system, but if he is not he should, why would u go with wired vrs. Wireless? I think he has one of the best boxes out there, but should offer the cryptopay cc system. Jim give us...

What ratio are you using through a hydrominder? 64:1 etc...

I changed the contactor and overload as stated in a previous post, and it works fine.

Timers inside the ER they are gs-401. Thing is it worked ok after swapping out the contactor and motor starter.

No i did not. It was chattering so bad, sparks were flying and the motor was banging on and off, i was afraid it would do major damage. If i pushed the coil in with a screwdriver it would work fine, I'm talking no power just pushing in the coil manually.

Replaced all the motor contactors in my 3 bay carwash about 4 or 5 years ago with LC1D18B7 and the LRD21 by Telemecanique. Last weekend when it was very busy on the high pressure, one bay (the least used one) stopped then started then stopped and started again within a couple seconds. The...

I agree, this is what i have been suggesting since the beginning.

I have been using these settings for years without a freeze up. Weepmizer Settings: At 35° By 25° To 15° P1 = 01:00 P1 = 30% P2 = 01:00 p2 = 60% P3 = 01:00 P3 = 90 Its gonna freeze when the temp start dropping, so put more water out when the temp start dropping fast, you never know when...

Randy, which asco valve do u use? Part #.

Also, I notice that most of the major websites update their webpages on the first of the year. Adding that they hope you enjoy the updated design. They are constantly adding or completely changing the look to keep people interested. Adding new features etc.

Thats a good idea, that would be the way to do it.
