Revision as of 20:48, 9 April 2015
The TAM120 peripheral pump is sold as being compatible with both mineral diesel and biodiesel and suitable for liquid temperatures up 90°C. This coupled with a good performance make it well suited to a small to medium size home processor, although note should be made of the maximum particle size the pump is able to handle.

Whilst the major mechanical components have proved rugged in service, several examples of terminal boxes cracking and capacitors over heating with subsequent damage to the terminal block have been observed. These issues can be remedied easily using replacement items: see [3D Printed parts and spares]for a stronger design of 3D printed terminal box or replace with a suitable electrical junction box.
Suitable capacitors can be readily acquired from on line auction sites. Original capacitor specification was 40µF ±5%, 450V AC, 50/60Hz. The replacement capacitor must be suitable for continuous duty.
On later TAM120 the terminal box and capacitor location was altered (as per photo top right of this page), presumably to overcome these issues.
