Good info...What price did you pay and more importantly what about "flow rate"?
I took my Fumoto valve off after a retired Cummins engineer showed me a test of what was left behind by draining at slower "flow rate".
Same theory as when you drain a sink with plug barley in and unrestricted. Stuff left behind when draining at lower flow rate is higher. But this would make a lot of since for fleet owners as the cross over of time and money would come into play, fast. Not to mention how many lube bays you have. But I wonder why Eaton didn't put in any "flow rate" results with their valve versus free flow gravity.
