720R, 720RE, 720R/RX and 720RE/REX performance data
Pumping conditions
All performance figures in this operating instruction have been recorded against peak pipeline
pressures.
This pump is rated to 2 bar (30psi) peak pressure when fitted with a 720R, 720RE, 720R/RX or 720RE/REX
pumphead using high-pressure tubing. However, it will generate in excess of 4 bar (58psi) peak pressure
if the pipeline is restricted. Where it is important that 2 bar (30psi) is not exceeded, pressure relief valves
should be installed in the pipeline.
At discharge pressures exceeding 1 bar (15psi) the flow performance may be de-rated. This is particularly
the case with twin pumpheads. Please refer to the performance tables below.
Note
: Flow rates quoted have been rounded for simplicity, but are accurate to within 5% - well within the
normal tubing tolerance variation of flow rate. They should therefore be taken as a guide. Real flow rates
in any application must be determined empirically.
