More B than A
Hi GuysMy E-20 Rig seems to be using more B Side than A. I had a 3 set 1/2 pound job this weekend and when it was all said and done, we used about 1/2 barrel more of the B Side Material than A. I usually spray closed cell and never really noticed the difference before. Is this common? Graco's E-20's are famous for E-24 errors, which lets me know when the pressures are imbalanced. The machine worked flawlessly this weekend and never had an error the entire time. Why am I using more B than A? Foam looks fine, no smell and we never had any pressure imbalances? Enlighten me! P.S. Conditions were hot as heck (between 85 & 90 outside temps) just in case someone needs that information |

We typically order one extra barrel of iso for every 6 resin. |

I know, I just don't know why I am using more Reisin than ISO this past weekend. |

How old is your hose? We were off ratio a bit, not that bad but bad enough. When the hose heat crapped out and we had to get a new hose, we realized the hose was the issue. Must have had some blockage, probably crystilization. |

You are probably right! 100 ft is less than a year, 50 ft 2 yrs and 50 ft. next to the whip is probably going on three or so. Everything cost! $1000.00 for this, $1000.00 for that, kinda like the Seafood business. Lottery is just over 150 Million right now. Boy,if I could hit that, I could get me a new rig... On second thought, maybe not... Is it getting as hot up the east coast as it is in Louisiana right now? |
