using a propane torch to heat the joint and soften the thread sealant.
^Hey that sucks, but thanks for sharing. Did you buy the tank brand new? Why do you think a larger tank would be better?
I'm using my 6" welded base spool tank with no problems yet. I've had the time of my life putting this lil system together and learning to run it. I've learned so much...I think a lot of you more mechanically inclined folks would have no problem putting together a SS tank that was safe. You can get hemispherical lids with dip tubes now.
Hemispherical lids don't really matter for Tri-Clamp systems. The flat lids hold more pressure than the Tri-Clamp connections. Tri-Clamp systems don't meet standards for storage or transport.
^yep, they're $700, and that's for preorder. Doesn't ship til 6-12-15. Anybody getting one? Or have a cheaper source?
The specs are said to include:
"304 Grade Stainless Steel 30LB welded tank with a Tare weight of 16Lbs. It will hold 18Lbs of Solvent. Includes a 3" H.P. triclamp with a vapor port, liquid port, pressure gauge and 400psi blow off valve."
They seem to be anticipating selling a lot of these...what do you guys think?
Yes I need a 100 # tank hope they will offer one soonI predict that they are right about a stainless 30# refrigerant tank, but a 50# and 100# tank would cover more of the market.
