Is that a screwed plug at the other end of the manifold that you have?

Yes, that sounds like a plan. You’ll likely need two fittings to adapt what you have to a 12mm or 15mm hose connector depending on what...

With all due respect, I’m fully aware of how these systems are meant to work and I really don’t want to get into a discussion about...

Or the pressure switch controlling the pump is faulty and not operating at the correct pressures. We need a pressure gauge fitted into...

My experience with the Lofrans has been entirely satisfactory over 8 years, probably 500-1000 anchoring events; I haven't bothered to...

Yes, I did notice the FSD of that particular gauge was a bit on the high side, but I did say - “something like this”, just to give you...

My 60m of chain covers all my anchoring needs, so I can’t really help you on that point. With the rope drum on the other side of the...

I’m working on the basis that the system has worked fine in the past! In which case, the capacity of the accumulator will be fine. The...

I’m sure you’ll get differences of opinion on the dedicated windlass battery, but I’m with you on that. I also have a change over switch...

The sequence of events for using the system would typically be as follows: System lying at rest, fully pressurised to 25psi Turn any...

Lofrans Kobra here with 60m x 10mm chain. 12m 17tonne steel boat. 1000w at 24v If you’ve got the option - go for 24v. Lower current...

Ok, from your post above, my understanding is that the pump cut in pressure is 10psi and cut out pressure is 25psi. With the accumulator...

The HT’s are all imperial with UNF and a few UNC bolts/nuts. Your imperial spanner’s and sockets will be put to good use. If you’re not...

Re the 8mm 5/16 spanner I thought the engine was a bit old to be metric so had ordered up a set of imperial spanners then seen the above...

The opening post explains the problem that I was trying to fix and the Pump Vendors suggestions that sent me off down the Governor...
