Help me ID a mystery pump
On Mon, 13 Aug 2007 22:50:30 -0500, with neither quill nor qualm,
Ignoramus5826 quickly quoth: From a pool supply business. No idea what it does. Powered by a 1/4 HP motor. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdTMr4zINa0 I just did a website for a guy who propagates corals, and he has a pump similar to that one. It pumps small amounts of calcium into the water for him as he makes sal****er. Very old dialysis machines are similar in style. This one may be to add specific amounts of chlorine and acid to a very large pool. /SWAG And, to put us back on the normal political track, check this out: http://tinyurl.com/2msxoa It shows a video which asks Americans "When will you have had enough?" The end lists all the rights which are being usurped by our government at the moment. Powerful. -- Every day above ground is a Good Day(tm). ----------- |

I sure know we can do better if we want to drop to the enemies level. I don't think some anyone has a Constitutional right to disrupt a political meeting where whatever political party is paying for the use of the venue.

Why is it that some potential libertarian, just a few months from being born can be snuffed out because mommy doesn't want it? Which party for the most part supports the cold blooded murder of the least defenseless amoungst us? As a closing, who signed off on Project Echelon? Wes PS I worked on my lathe today. Pulled the driven side assemble since I learned that I have to use all 100 G of moglice semi when I open it. Might as well coat both and turn them down. 74.62 delivered for that stuff. |

Yup, looks like the pumps go on the left side at the end, where those plungers come out. They probably make the missing pump sections out of various engineering plastics, so the chlorines and acids don't eat them up quite as fast, and they are cheaper to scrap and replace periodically. Must be meant for an 'Olympic Size' commercial or public pool for that much volume, or a small lake where they're trying to kill off the worst of what grows naturally. Most of the chlorine injection pumps I run into on condo pools ('backyard size' or slightly larger) are variable speed peristaltic pumps with a chunk of tubing doing the heavy lifting. Easy to open the lid and change out a foot of Tygon tubing and a couple of check valves. -- Bruce -- |

Wes PS Metalworking content Recieved my 4 1/2 MT to 5C adaptor to fit my Clausing 6903 today. I was a bit worried since 4 1/2 MT varies between South Bend and Clausing. Sure seemed to fit mine nice. Now I need to make a draw tube and a spindle nose protector / adaptor extractor. UPS didn't drop off the Moglice semi for repairing one side of my sheaves in the varidrive. Maybe tomorrow. |

Spa pump ?
Not large enough - flow that is for a pool - but a spa maybe. Likely not the turbo jet pump - but the general pump/flush pump. Martin Martin H.

They are command line programs. If you can figure out how to make it work on your Solaris you should be all set (at least I think that is what you are running...). Then to get Iggy's file use the following link and save it locally: http://cache.googlevideo.com/get_vid...id=DdTMr4zINa0 This has been working okay for me. I don't know for how long though. Just take the youtube ID number and add it to the end as the video ID from google. I use FFplay & FFmpeg binaries on my WinNT4 machine to display these myself. Does mplayer compile on Solaris? i |

See: http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/projects.html There is a link on the aforementioned page to Mplayer too if Don wants to pursue/look into it. If you hit the windows binaries (FFmpeg,FFplay) with UPX (exe compressor) they are only about 2.7mb each and play/show anything I ask of them. Not too bad considering how bloated many programs are nowadays... -- Leon Fisk Grand Rapids MI/Zone 5b Remove no.spam for email |

Help me ID a mystery pump
According to Leon Fisk :
[ ... ] Hi Don, Take a look at this google search: http://www.google.com/search?num=25&...ay&btnG=Search FFplay can display flv files okay and FFmpeg can convert them to almost anything else. They are command line programs. If you can figure out how to make it work on your Solaris you should be all set (at least I think that is what you are running...). Interesting, here is the title from the first hit from that search: ================================================== ==================== [FFmpeg-devel] Build failed on Solaris 10 ================================================== ==================== And -- Solaris 10 is just what I am using. Well ... I'll check the link and see what compiler he was using. I've got the choice between gcc (several versions) and the cc in the "Studio 12" suite from Sun. It looks as though I already have them in my OpenBSD systems, so I may not have to compile them at all. :-) Hmm ... I got the file from below and transferred it to an OpenBSD system, and tried it with the following results: ================================================== ==================== Popocat:csu 16:32:37 # ffplay video.ffv [flv @ 0x448b0170]skipping flv packet: type 18, size 306, flags 0 Illegal instruction (core dumped) ================================================== ==================== along with perhaps thirty seconds of a window with a solid black background showing before the dump. And I can only find a CVS repository of the sources, not a single downloadable tarfile. It ain't worth the trouble.

The ones we have for the high school pool make an awful clanging sound that makes me think there's a blacksmith in the boiler room every time I walk by. For comparison, I believe the main circulation pump is 20+ HP and the main suction and discharge lines are 8-12" |

According to Leon Fisk :
[ ... ] Well it was worth a try Don. I'm in way over my head trying to help anyone with Solaris, Linux, BSD... I can figure out ways to keep running my old NT4 stuff though The FFmpeg libraries are in a constant state of flux so maybe it will go someday. If I were you I would keep plugging away at it when I got the urge/chance. I probably will -- but I am currently working on migrating server functions from a SS-5 (with lots of disk, and running Solaris 2.6), to a Sun Fire 280R (also with lots of disk, but running Solaris 10 U3, and using zfs-based RAID instead of individual drives). Later, I may have more time to pound away on it. The real pain with most of these things is how many other libs I have to bring in and compile -- and sometimes what programs are broken by a newer version of some of the libs. *Why* can't they remain backward-compatible the way they used to? The programs are a little quirky on Windows, but for the most part they work. They are really being developed for the Unix flavored systems and the Windows ports are just an offshoot the best I can tell. O.K. I don't want to run them on Windows anyway.
