Re: Flojet pumps
Just out of interest are you fitting them to the outlet side (best choice) of the pump or the inlet side ( [smiley=evil.gif] side) of the pump?
Reason for the readjustment for others info too is that the pressure loss past the filter ads to the pressure the pump must generate at a given flow rate and this varies slightly with pressure. This also will show as the filter clogs more in lower pressure at the head so change the filters often
.
Last couple of things on procons or similar if they are a model with an inlet screen fitted make sure it gets degunged once in a while and dont let it run dry or try and prime it for more than 20-30 seconds at a time or the seals will get damaged by the heat generated
