Hi Creekers,hope your having a good saturday.
I have a question, see diagram for better understanding. Should both blast gates be open even though only running one unit at a time? The reason it made me think is if just one is open, then the chips can fall back into the other Y side thats not open and build up a foot before it catches up with the open one.
Also has anyone used 4" dryer duct for chip movement? Is it not smooth enough inside to carry them efficiently? IM trying it but not enough time with it yet to know.
Last question, This unit is a delta 1.5hp, I think 1200 cfm, im runnning one y duct 4". Is this unit capable of sucking chips from the floor straight up to ceiling (9')and then carry about 10 feet across to DC. I looked in the book that came with it and nothing has specs like that.
Also a unit of this size can I split off another Y so I have 3 or 4 units hooked up all the time or do I need a bigger unit.I would be using blast gates at important flow cutoff areas.
Thanks for helping.
