SRC Member typrobin Posted December 20, 2004 SRC Member Share Posted December 20, 2004 1262 is not pressure rated, so it will definitely lose out to the other 2 pumps... resun md55 has got quite a bit of draw back, not lasting, noisy and also almost burn down one of the reefer's house... iwaki is certainly the choice if u have the extra cash and want to have peaceful sleeps... if u wanna run md55 for return and chiller, i suggest to t-off...usually chiller do not need such high flowrate... t-off and let the return enjoy stronger flow and the chiller to have just sufficient flow as recommended by the chiller manufacturer..

SRC Member wa_lanz Posted December 21, 2004 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 21, 2004 ok. wats the flow rate and pricing of iwaki md55? assuming i t-off to chiller.. and the return i split into two pipings.. would the current created be strong enough for sps? will be adding in a controllable tunze to create the random current as well.. dun wish to use two tunzes as no budget and also looks bulky..
