The one many people here use, and is also the one I use, is found at Northern Tools: www.northerntool.com Item# 109955 It is 110V and 1/2HP. This is my primary reactor pump. I am going to try out a Pony Pump from the same place, Item# 109730, that I just got tonight as a wash pump and filter pump (the one I use to get the BD from the wash tank through the filters after it's final wash) 1/3HP should work fine, IMHO, and the 1 inch connections are the same as the Clear Water Pump mentioned above.Just do the necessary plumbing and have at it. The only problem you will have to be aware of is if you use NaOH as a catalyst as it may want to harden as it cools and this can be a problem in pumps and the lines. I have done away with the potential of this happening, after reading comments from Todd and G-Mark about isolating the pump and draining the lines once processing is complete. I have successfully done this with my unit and as an unexpected bonus it also provided me with a sample for quality testing while the main mix settles. There should be pics and explanations available as soon as the schedule permits.
