Thumbs up Score!

Good Score!

My son-in-law does some "scrapping" on the weekends ( they have 4 kids...) and got a call from a local gas station. They had someone hit a multi unit fuel dispenser and wrecked it. The insurance co payed for a new unit, but the co that replaced it wouldn't haul the wrecked one away.

Long story short, he took it apart for scrap and gave me the 6 "explosion proof" 120v electric valves!



So the new processor I'm building will have electric control valves AND solar heat!

Just wish I had time to work on it.....................Sigh

No pumps (the pumps are underground in the tanks) but I did get the filter housings, and the flow meters!

They are going on my new processor. The CO-OP processor is on hold for this summer. I won't have time to build it this year because of moving to my new shop and house..........
