Example #1:
What is the pressure loss of a 2,000 cps
material through 150 ft of 3/8 in. ID hose at 0.75 gpm?
690 psi (from chart) x 2 (2,000 cps /1,000) x 3 (150 ft / 3)
x 0.75 (gpm) = 3105 psi loss
This is a lot of pressure loss before reaching the spray
gun. Continue to
Example #2
which examines the same
situation but with a 1/2 in. ID hose.
Example #2:
What is the pressure loss of a 2,000 cps
material through 150 ft of 1/2 in. ID hose at 0.75 gpm?
218 psi (from chart) x 2 (2,000 cps /1,000) x 3 (150 ft / 3)
x 0.75 (gpm) = 981 psi loss

Reference Formula
Total Pressure Drop = P x V x L x F
Key:
P= Pressure drop from chart
V = Viscosity in centipoise /1000
L= Length of hose in feet / 50
F= Flow rate in gallons per minute
