Sump pump with small flow rates
Sump pump with small flow rates
(OP)
Hello
Im searching for a pump for lifting water from a sump through a filter.
The max distance to lift is 1.5 metres and the filter requires another 0.2 bar of suction.
I require a pump with suction head of 4 metres but the flow rate must be kept at 70 l/hour.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a pump that will suit my application?
Thanks
Justin

RE: Sump pump with small flow rates
If this is not the case you should re-evaluate your
terminology/description which is somewhat confusing at the moment to give a clearer picture of what is needed.
RE: Sump pump with small flow rates
The pump sucks the water from the sump through the filter so it has to lift the water from the pump a distance of 1.5 metres and the trans filter pressure is 0.2 bar resulting in another 2 metres to the suction head (3.5 metres in total), 4 metres with a a safety factor.
I can find plenty of pumps that will provide this suction head but hardly any that will do this and provide a flow of 70 litres/hour, which is what the filter requires to work properly.
