[RickB]

Put a 2” diameter cylinder on it and be done.

how much would that slow it down?

 

[oldnslo]

how much would that slow it down?

2 inch cylinder would be around 9 seconds vs 5 seconds for 1 1/2 inch

Since the picture of power unit shows D03 style valve you can purchase stack modules with priority flow control that mount between the valve and subplate no extra plumbing required

Note: if gravity down this will not change down time

only about 1.50 yard and it only takes about 5 seconds to dump.

1.5 yards of wet dirt or gravel is probably 4,000 pounds. I doubt you’ll dump that with that cylinder. Have you tested it?

I have six dumps fully heaped with wet clay and not a problem or even a slow down.

I would like a 10 to 15 second rise.
Im thinking more about a Needle Valve with the price of a new cylinder.
Can you tell me more about that stack module that would work?
My setup is power up and down.

Adding a needle valve will:
1)ruin your pump
or
2)ruin your battery
or
3) both

Install a bigger cylinder. The cylinder should be WAY cheaper than a new pump unit.

Pump damage is all but a certainty.

even with the stack modules with priority flow control option?

You said needle valve, we replied pump damage.
