Hi Lisa,

Figure 1 includes a schematic of a SOLO float with a picture of an APEX float. 
These two designs are significantly different from each other.  In particular, the schematic does not describe Float 0005 (which is an APEX).

In addition, the use of the phrase "PALACE float" will earn you some guff from reviewers.  Technically, the "PALACE float" used a different (multistroke) pump design and PALACE floats are not being manufactured anymore.  Personally, I think these complaints are needless splitting of hairs...the use of the phrase "PALACE float" to represent something fairly generic doesn't bother me.
