Been looking more in depth of these volume washers. Would 110l/min be adequate for washing out stock float?
I have a volume washer , will wash more quantity out than presure washer , but if it gets dried on not so good still need a pressure washer , you also need a big tank , i started with 3 ibcs coulped together plummed in with ball
Cock waste of tiMe , now have 10,000 liter tank plumbed in and when washing cattle pens out still run out …. They use a hoooooor o a water .

Is that a metric measurement ?
 
2 ibcs keeps our volume washer going about 25 minutes which is usually just enough to wash the cattle pens or wagon and drag . They are fed by a 1inch ball cock and twinset pumps though so filling fairly fast all the time

If you're on a bore hole locate your wash bay beside the bore. I run a 1" hose off mine and it'll fill an ibc in under 10 mins. Great for washing out float
