Anyone know how to plumb these?

[Tim G]

Afternoon,
Time has come to fit these transfer valves, but I'm left scratching my head. To complicate matters there are acrs connected too, so they do auto transfer I believe.
Anyone have a picture or diagram of how to connect them up?
Thanks

This may help?

Thanks @onesiedale, it's not that type unfortunately. I've got this basis diagram, but need a bit more detail...

We used to have the same setup as that but I cant remember how it was piped. Do your switches have 2 pipes on the back and 1 on the bottom?

yes they do.

I got this exact setup @Tim G .
i will try and get some pictures or draw a diagram for you later .

I think a couple of the ports are piped together with t's off them. Do you have all the other bits you need for it?

Correct @bigw , a T join for acr/ milk transfer and another Y joiner for wash cycle needed.

Yes, I think I have everything. So far I have this.....

You not using auto milk transfer then ?
Seems to be missing from your diagram above .

 

[Alfred]

You seem to be missing the vacuum operated milk transfer valve in your diagram ,that sits in the line out the bottom of the jar. Have you got these ? Because they also need to be connected for the system to work properly I think.

On the long stem a c r there is a reversing relay that go into the system and operates with the system

I think that the y piece is the vacuum feed to toggle the jar goes to spare nipple on back

Not sure if this helps, not been used for 10 years

We have the same system, been in over 20 years and I still don't know where all the pipes go!

We’ve got them on our Alfa parlour let me know if your struggling I’ll soon get some pictures of you need them,we’ve had that parlour here 30+ years

 

[Real cool]

Yea you need a vacuum supply to your reversing relay the black thing that looks like your amplifier then take a vacuum feed to the y piece on the toggling then the transfer valve is off the middle left then you have to run lines up to reversing relay the pics on toggles show it’s for auto transfer

A schematic drawing is on its way if you want it when bt decide to fix internet
