Swapping 12v line to drop stick

1

I want to attach a banjo fitting at my 12v pumps inlet so I can swap between my proportioner line and a line with a drop stick plumbed to a 5gal bucket, but my 12v pumps inlet and outlet aren’t threaded, they’re port fittings. Are there banjo fittings that have a port fitting?

I’ve personally never seen any of those……

I don’t know what a port fitting is but you may be referencing the northern tool quick connect type thing. Where you slide the fitting in a lock it with a tab. Let’s say you’re running 1/2” hose. You could plumb like 6-8” of hose into the barb and the other end put cam lock fittings.

Or better yet, just put a 3 way valve to swap between the two. You can find them on that website I posted

Just plumb it in further upline than your pump, no problem. What size line you running?

I think a 3 way ball valve would probably be easier. Will the barbs not slow down my flow?

I’m running 3/4’ line from my manifold to pump

I just ran ours to a banjo camlock in the bay where the downstream mix box is…disconnect that to hookup the chem hose to run to the house if needed.

What size to the manifold? What other chems are you thinking of pulling?
