Hydrofoamer 9460.040

Hello!

Can the hydrofoamer 9460.040 (the one that uses the new DOC 9460) be used in substitution of the 4 hydrofoamer that the old DOC9480 uses?

They are any modifications that I have to do in the 9480 to use this pump on it?

Thanks!

I don't see a way to do this, the new 9460 is very different in design and the 9460 pump is 1" outlet instead of 3/4". The best option would probably be two 9430.044 DC pumps in place of 4 9420.040 pumps.
