Found this Eductor... Have some questions

I found 2 BEX chem tank mixing eductors at work during a cooling tower upgrade and I had a few questions.

1) The eductors were used in a brominated system (average levels 1.5-2.5 free chlorine). Will this leach out of the plastic back into my tank?

2) My closed loop will consist of (4) 3/4" nozzles fed off of a OM squirt run by a Gen x 40 pump. The eductors are 1/2'' male npt. How much flow will I lose bushing it down? Will using 2 eductors throw the OM "outta whack"?


Are these worth using or should I stick to my original CL plan? Maybe I could use one of them on my return? (3/4'' from a panworld 100)

Any opinions greatly appreciated.

If you don't have penductors on every outlet of the ocean motions it will never work. Water will just come out of whatever outlets do not have a penductor on them.

How will it come out the other outlets? On an OM squirt only 1 and a half outlets are open (others are covered by the rotating drum) at any given time........
