Subject: Re: No relief valve that I could see, I'm going...


SW KS, near Dodge City
To take it apart tomorrow. What I can't figure out though is the pressure that the pump is putting out then. I don't know how much pressure it takes to hold a 20' grain bed in the air with a full load of wheat, but it'll do it. That would have to be one heeeeaaavy duty pressure relief valve. And that would mean that the pump can create a pretty impressive amount of pressure.

I don't think there's one there, just to much liability/chance for a horrible accident if it let go when the bed was in the air.

Maybe they welded the fitting on the tank and never drilled it out.
