The Sanden does have an oil sump.... so it is much more forgiving about less than perfect topside conditions.

Listen to Vstech.... I only posted because you used the word ' supposedly' .. because the actual units are probably equal in durability... it is only that in our old systems it is hard to provide the correct ' support' conditions the R4 needs.
