Trying something new, i've never really plumb alot of things from my return pump but I want to use my return pump for my reactor eliminating my MJ1200. Anyone know what I would need to plumb a dual carbon reacto from BRS from my return pump?

Thanks
 
i was thinking about doing the same but i think having a separate pump would be better for maintenance a saftey. i had biopellets back feed into my feed pump when i shut it off, even though this is probably very unlikely for you i felt it was a good reason to keep it separate.
 
Seeing that this would need to be plumbed into a 1/2" fitting do you guy know how to reduce from a 3/4" tube into a 1/2" fitting?. I am not sure a gate valve would work maybe a Ball Valve?
 
Frankie I am in Logan if you want to stop by and see how I plumb the same reactor. Below is what I used in order from the pump.

From the pump:
Union
PVC
Gate Valve
PVC
T
From T to the reactor:
3/4 slip reducer with 1/2 FPT
1/2 MPT quick connect adaptor )(You need to buy this it does not come with the reactor)
Line to reactor
From T to return:
PVC
Check Valve
PVC
Gate Valve
Plumb to display
