Ok, but one pot could feed all 4 machines.
And no pumps.. no drivers for the pumps.
Almost no wiring.
No special hose to replace.
Very ... low tech.
That small pressure pot is two quarts.
Put it on the floor or hang it from the ceiling.
The pressure pot won't care where it is.

This is what i was talking about. I have both a similar pressure pot
for paint and the exact spray gun and pot.
And where, on a 6040, do you propose to hide all that? By the time I've a
4 gallon file box behind it for motor coolant, I have plumb used up a
2x4 foot tabletop. Its monstrous compared to an 8oz coke bottle for
reservoir and a teeny little $7 pump just over an inch in diameter and
2" long, and a bunch of weed eater fuel line to get to the nozzle base
currently screwed to the motor mount.
All these do is create pressurized fluid at whatever PSI you set on
the regulator.
If you use one of these with a fast solenoid valve and an orifice, you
can meter fluids out fairly precisely.
Their air use is insignificant, unless the pot leaks.
Another thing you could do is to use a drip feed into a line. Use a
needle valve or tube pinch valve to regulate a gravity flow of fluids.
Think IV medical fluid feed.
If you could find an IV feed pump you might be all set! (Ebay
??) :-)
Thats precisely what these teeny pumps are for. The hose isn't readily
replaceable should it crack and fail, so I bought 4 of them. I doubt if
I'll last long enough to use them all.
Besides, I have 4 machines now, all of which would be improved by a
coolant mist...
Thanks Dave, but...
