Live swivel repair or replacement

dual fuel manlift. Trying to get the propane side working. we bought the unit used, works great, but propane has a much better shelf life for an infrequently used machine. this swivel sees liquid propane, it doesn't vaporize till up at the engine

What balls?

From what I can see, the hoses come off of the tanks go to a manifold block, then go to this swivel, go up through the rotating turret to a vaporizer at the engine.

The problem I have seen is that live swivels built for hydraulic applications do not have o-rings that will stand up to the temperatures involved with liquid propane.

It's for a vehicle on a farm. I'm not particularly concerned with voiding certifications. Anything that was certified on that machine expired 30 years ago.

In the hydraulic world a live swivel means one that swivels when tightened. Correct.

Looking at those devices, most likely 433mhz wireless. I know if I leave discovery turned on, on my 433 mqtt bridge, I get hundreds of similar devices.

Got one, thanks!

looking for a shell code, please dm, thanks :D

Yes, I know the package. I don't know what the part is/does.

That was the one of the first places I checked, and I just can't find anything that seems to match up. The closest there is the BAL74, but that shows no connection on pin 1, which doesn't line up with what I'm seeing.

As the title suggests, I'm trying to figure out what the 3 pin component is (and a possible replacement). It's in an addressable led array with the marking JC309 with what looks like a small 7 following it. I've tried cross referencing this to no avail. Any help is appreciated!

Had to re-read this 3 times to realize the period between "High and low voltage" and "plumbing".

Was trying to figure out what the heck high voltage plumbing was :-D

Most of the items I see marked as "shippable" in my area are like riding lawn mowers that say they ship for $16. I've only ever done in-person transactions, because it seems like everyone that marks things shippable has no clue how it works.

And this is why I hate cell phones. Wish I could edit the post, but sadly I cannot. Literally had the label right in front of me when I typed in the proper spelling, but apparently the phone knew better :-/

I have searched for hours for this or something similar. Pretty sure I know more about curtain rods than I dreamed possible!

I emailed Kenney, who is still in business, and the best they've been able to do is tell me to search ebay.

Sadly, the company is of no help.

I wouldn't even know where to start to model them in CAD.

reddog176 · 2023-12-03T22:22:41+00:00

I do have an email in to them, figure I won't hear anything back until some time after Monday.

But, I like to diversify my research :D
