[QUOTE="20x, post: 121119, member: 2569"] Something related to the above question that needs thought... While im digging and sluicing hard im really concerntrating on processing my material, its hard to notice a drop in spray pressure until its gets to a point where you really notice it but by then ive been choking my sluice without realising. I see this as a big problem!!! Another feature to this build that i havent put in yet is a flow rate meter, ive searched the world for a simple tap in guage but all i could find was a houshold tap flowrate guage and thats no good. Ide like to know a a measurable flow rate setting and to be able to monitor it while sluicing incase there is a filter clogg problem. The next best thing i found on ebay is liquid pressure guages 0-30psi/0-60psi from memory for around $30 i think. Im wondering if installing 1 of these i could get an accurate operating psi between pump and spray bars. Im guessing that if i got a filter clogg the pressure in the line would fall and i would see it happen as it happens and deal with it. Thoughts fella's? :cool: [/QUOTE]
