    C-type surge?

    Nope, never heard of them.

    I used to build goat milking pumps from them. I probably should start again, I guess.

    My dad worked in feed mill (GLF)-that there is a old time name-in the 1940s and early 50s. All his life he would tie tarps down with what he called a "feed store knot." Never bothered to learn it-my loss.

    That looks to be a vacuum splitter for a milking machine.
