[QUOTE="WalnLiz, post: 15706, member: 147"] A petrol pump is far superior when it comes to a Hi-banker which processes large amounts of wash. A "River Sluice" working in a low flow or "Nil" flow area can be supported by a bilge pump to get enough flow for successful sluicing. A "Spray Bar" across the flanged section of the sluice will regulate the water speed needed to run the box. The slots in the spray bar can be several cm apart to get uniform spray across the full width of the sluice. You're only after volume not pressure so larger slots will work best. The idea of the spray bar is to get even water volume across the catch zone only, and replicate what normal stream flow would do.....Happy sluicing, Cheers Wal. [/QUOTE]
