Temp Control with 2 Units Connected

Rance said:
The 10 GPM came from my post. My set up is different from yours CL so you will not be able to set your system up like I have mine set up. I run both of my machines through the coil. My burner is much bigger than your 4GPM burner allowing for me to run 10 gpm's through mine. If I am wrong in doing that, some one please tell me why. You will have to set your system up the way Russ said. As far as your temp. settings I guess you'll have to play with it a little to find out where to start. Sorry for the confusion!

I never stated I wanted to run both machines through one coil, nor did I ask about anyone else's machines. I was simply petitioning for suggestions or recommendations about the set up I clearly explained in the initial posts. I was trying to avoid confusion, and was unfortunately unsuccessful.

Thankfully I was successful at getting a direct answer to the direct question I asked. Thanks Russ. Chris, I looked for the experiment prior to posting and didn't find any information anywhere on google, hence the post.

Thanks Rance and everyone else for your input! Much, much more to come! Merry Christmas and happy new year!
 
Hey CL. Just adding that 2.4 gpms into the mix will help you get the most out of that hammerhead. I'm sure you can probably get 120-140 degrees out of that setup if you crank it up all the way, But the higher gpm's will definitely kick stuff up a notch, . I saw and felt a big difference when I changed out a 4 gpm to a 5 gpm pump. You will get some good results with hotter water and higher gpms, and if you run up against some oil spots you need really hot water just turn off the smaller machine.

That's what I'm hoping. I'm going to look for a cheap thermometer an see what I can find.

Lol... It's hard when threads go sideways off point.

I really need help when I post. But it can't happen when outside issue interrupt the focus. Thanks Rance.

Any danger of thermal shock on the hose reel if one of the machines goes into bypass a split second before the other?

The hose reels are Coxreels 1125-4-325 (2) and an 1125-4-200 for a 12v dedicated chemical setup. The specs say -75 to 400 degrees.
