TAM120 pump/dry wash tower wanted
« on: January 17, 2023, 08:32:04 AM »
Hello!

I'm a newbie to biodiesel and looking to get my rig setup. I have a processor now, but need to build the rest of the setup.  I don't suppose anyone has a fairly high capacity open impellor pump like the clarke TAM120 gathering dust a corner some place?
I'm also interested in a dry wash tower if anyone has one.
Located in south west but can travel.  Many thanks.

Welcome.

Good choice of pump, been using one for years, often run at circa100°C although only rated to 60°C.  Not the most economical pump but check out the thread on periodic mixing ... offers a massive saving on electricity.

If you get a TAM120 there are .stl files on the wiki to 3D print a replacement terminal box and cooling fan.
