Does anyone know where to find parts for an old Gilles Bernard releaser? Numbers 228F and 9-158 big belly. Specifically I am looking for the bottom outlet parts before I try to improvise. Thanks.

I believe Lapierre sells Bernard, so one of their dealers should be able to access.

Somewhere around 800 - 900 taps on Atlas Copco vacuum
1 Sap Ladder & 1 can
2 1/2 x 10 Waterloo/Small, with Piggyback & hood,
Air over & under fire
CDL autodrawoff, Homemade drawoff/filter tank with pump,
Lapierre Sirofilter, modified steam pan bottler
right, thanks. They are looking for one too.
I bought a seal set from Bascom 2 yrs ago, it took 5 months to receive it. Fortunately it wasn't during the season.
Dave Klish, I recently bought a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.
I have a double vertical, I used to be able to get parts online, seals etc, in stock. I wanted to replace the pneumatic cylinder this year, they quoted me a month...no one seems to have any parts on hand.

2021 - 48 Gallons - new pans, new arch, lots of new taps and tubing
2020 - 32 Gallons
