    Need advice on Vacuum filter

    edit* I found the correct 2"NPT Solberg inlet filter for my machine and bought that instead.

    in case anyone elseever needs one I went with a Solberg CSL 851 200HC.

    Now on the quest for a safety relief valve also 2"NPT.

    Found the FPZ VRL6 Safety Valve today. It is shipping out in the AM from Milwaukee. It was ordered from FPZ. I will get pictures of the filter and safety valve for anyone that might be interested in these items now or in the future. It was $135 shipped. The filter and the valve both have cost me the same amount I paid for the pump!

    Still no $500 Becker to be found though LOL!

    I ended up making a relief valve and filter canister for my lobe pump. Took a couple afternoons but only cost a few bucks. Works pretty well...the relief valve will open when I get near 15"hg (max safe operating pressure for lobe blower) and lowers it to 13 or 12"..
