I believe they are delaval brand but I am not sure. This parlor was put in around 2001 I think he said with all delaval equipment. One of the reasons we go through so many, I think, is because when the unit hangs to wash it puts pressure on the short air tubes. They crack at the end of the nipple, usually(if not always) by the claw. Pulsators are checked once a year at parlor teardown/rebuild.
