    Description

    By popular request - a single stage suction box with a single volume control in a box that mounts under keybed. (Our SS1-120 has the control mounted to the suction box). 7 5/8" square, about 10" tall. 1 1/4" main connector, 1/2" connector for accessories. Internal check valve. Single stage motor, 120 volts AC, 6.8 amps, auto thermal protection, grounded.  Includes 2' of 1-1/4" flex hose and a 1-1/4" straight brass connector for attaching to the foot pump reservoir. Pulls 48" water vacuum which is more than strong enough for a rebuilt or even slightly leaky player piano - if you think you need more, check item #292118780130 which is a two stage vacuum motor - generally quieter and can pull up to 70" and comes with a basic speed controller.
    If you want a suction box with dual independent controls for volume during play and rewind speed - check auction #292282333790.
    If you need a 1.25" brass connector elbow, check item #291679223198.
    We also offer the spoolbox flap style shutoff switch, check item #291679226120.
    This box is designed internally to limit transmission of vibrations from the motor to the box and it is felted on the bottom to help prevent noise transmission from the box to the piano.
    I've done player restorations for 30+ years and am glad to answer questions about this product before or after the sale. My contact info is included with every item and you can also reach me through eBay.  Installation of a suction box is usually not a difficult task but it can be helpful if you have someone to call during the process - it's part of what you get when you purchase one of my products.
