bigclive Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Although the PCB control voltage may be low, there is likely to be mains power in its vicinity, or even on the PCB if the heater is controlled by it. Never assume that because a board is low voltage, that it's safe to handle if it's in mains equipment. I'm not being a "fun-sponge", Just one brief electrical contact can kill in the right circumstances, and those circumstances often involve earthed metal enclosures and unexpectedly live bits.

wentalong Posted May 10, 2012 Author Share Posted May 10, 2012 ahhh rightttt :D thanks for the info, it's good to know your concerned ;) ** laughs out loud **, I swapped the tubes all over and nothings leaking from them (only thing that's leaking is a TINY amount of liquid from the reservoir where I used some instant gasket and wrapped plastic with cable ties to repair the crack (cant find any JB Weld or metal glue weld stuff :o also, when the pumps running an when I manage to get it primed, the vinegar and water goes through but it goes back and forth the whole system as if something pushing all of the fluid back or as if the pumps going into reverse, some air still is in the pipes but I doubt it could cause that?

bigclive Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 If the heater block is hot when you run the pump then the vaporised fluid will push back against the pump. More-so if the block is pretty clogged up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
