Default Re: electro. plating tank set-ups, pictures

I'm running all 25 litre setups now (approx 6.5 gal) polyethylene food grade buckets. For each 25 litre plating tank I have a 20 litre (approx 5.5 gal) distilled rinse tank. These are the same depth as the 25 litre tanks just a bit narrower. this gets used to rinse the parts and also for topping up the plating tank. This means there is almost no loss of chemicals. I use a squirt bottle to final rinse. This is done over the rinse tank as well so chemicals are not lost.

Next to these I have a 20 litre bucket containing my heated degreaser solution.

I have a pic in my gallery of my old setup, I actually increased the size of the table top to accommodate the larger buckets. I will take a new pic and put it up.

Cheers

Mark
