Title: Upgrade from Oil Systems(Italian) dump.
Post by: 87gbody on December 25, 2012, 09:27:54 PM
Are there any dumps out there that could be considered in between Oil system and adex/adel, both in price and performance? Big jump in price.

And Merry Christmas too.

I too have wondered about this, I am wondering about the Black Magic Hydraulics house brand. I guess a call would help.
They make the
L.A square (Adel look) $175.00
Adel-II (regular) $315.00, but the Adex is $60. more.


On the Industrial side, I believe it is much cheaper to buy them from ebay. I have seen monsters that require manifold blocks,

I really don't know a lot about the industrial or oil systems, but am thinking the oil systems are just industrial and higher pressures can be found. The Circle Seals valves are rated up to 6,000 PSI.

and to you and yours! 



I'm almost certain BMH said the L.A. square was just for looks.


I have looked into industrial stuff a few times but have no idea what I'm looking for. I bet all dumps marketed for lowriders are borrowed from industrial applications. I figured pressure rating was the easy part. How would you know how fast a dump closes without testing it first?

But, I did find a PDF that shows what the response times for opening and closing.

RESPONSE TIME WHEN ENERGIZED 8 MS
RESPONSE TIME WHEN DE-ENERGIZED 10 MS

it appears some manufactures do provide this info

Interesting. I wonder if anyone knows the response time for adex, delta, italian, etc. . Would be nice for comparison.
