Twin tanking - Peugeot Boxer 350 LWB 2.5D - Minibus/camper/van
« on: November 06, 2012, 07:57:02 PM »
hi guys, just thought i would chuck some pics up they may or may not help people out?

if you need to know any specifics please ask...

controller box makes thing automatic, blue switch up and drive away, box will change valves at what temp you set it, and senser is aluminum foil taped to the top of heat exchanger.

purge is flick switch down then to middle and the delay timer does the rest, 1 valve on till purge completed, blue flashing LED indicates in action, delay timer at the moment is set to 1 min 15 secs, but can be set to any thing upto 15 mins.

second switch is to change tank senders while driving to know amount in both tanks, but as its all automatic control box changes fuel tank senders on auto too aswell as veg valves, just flick switch and drive, box does it all...

also nice visual display of engine temp too., bonus.

Work in progress

I don't need anything made at the moment, but its nice to know of someone local(ish) that can weld to that standard, for a reasonable price. Theres one place in Hay on Wye, but they are always super busy, cheap enough, but I doubt they would do something like that for that price. Its not quite what they do.
I'll bare them in mind if I need something. Cheers.
