Flood Coolant System for Manual Surface Grinders
My old surface grinder came with a tank and a pump for wet grinding, however the vacuume blower motor was missing from this external unit.
Because my shop is small and abrasive dust can damage or rapidly age my machines, I would like to get the flood unit on my grinder working!
There is little available in used complete units for wet grinding, so I have decided to rebuild the unit I have.
So the question is simple, what CFM (cubic feet per minute) blower motor is needed for this application?
I have found an industrial centrifical blower unit with 167 CFM, and is capable of moving moist or wet substance. This unit sells new for $135.00 USD, so I would like to get a little input prior to hooking it up and blasting it with wet spray & steel particles!

Anyone have a mist collector on their ssurface grinder, if so what are the specs on your unit?
