So my good ok Chinese wiper is back together and finally running again.
After all my reading and everything I’ve been making only ok stuff.
Learned today that everyone’s micron measurements they posted are generally post cold trap which I did not know I must have missed that in my reading.
So here’s where I’m at, splitting heads at 252 microns (3.5x10^-1mbar) as per @Kingofthekush420 vta sop
Only thing I’m not doing is going 400rpm because then the unit usually stops and shudders and I have to stop the spinner and restart it
Pick me apart

Congrats on getting it running man! Where’d you end up finding the replacement body?
1st piece of advise is to find the vac leak though, 250 micron is a tad high

China from another supplier
For splitting heads 250 is high?? So the vta sop isn’t great?

Sorry I thought you were running the body, you said splitting tails. Also FWIW I don’t run a wiper so I’m probably not the best resource.
