Default Flow schematics

I'm working on getting all my pieces together for my rig and need everyone's comments on my flow schematics. I've got a fer half barrel sankes, 5 & 10 gallon water cooler, my 6kw heating element, ss brazed plate exchanger, a march pump, and a little giant pump. 5 gallon batches are planned right now, but I want to design around 10, just in case. Going for propane or ng for the boil. Let me know what could be done differently or better.
Thanks folks.
-Walter

White is the equipment and the colored lines are the jumper hoses. Am I missing anything?

Hey, it works and companies have blocks for all sorts of good components. When I comes to laying out the actual rig, I'll probably do up a sketchup model just to check my layout, but for this to figure out processes and parts it's just easier than messing with a model.



Colder has all sorts of model options for their components from 2/3D .dwg to sketchup, so they make pretty drawings even easier.

I redid/added a couple things and listed out the hosing.



Here's each piece of equipment and the quick connects so I can get those ordered up.



Just need to get the fittings tallied up and I can get those on order too.

Any comments or things missing?
