Sounds like there is a case for cleaning coolant tanks before the
sludge builds up to the 1/2 mark!
Say it ain't so!


Tanks are pulled and pumped monthly. They are taken outside and pressure
washed every 90 days.
The problems: a) We machine aluminum, for which this side of a disposable
roll media filter placed before coolant can return to the machine there is
_no_ way of keeping it out of the coolant tank itself. b) We run 24/7, and
the pump runs 24/7. Valves determine where the coolant goes, the pump runs
all the time. (Reason: at our cycle times, by the time a pump spins up to a
speed fast enough to pump some coolant, the cycle is over with)

better idiots.
