Ocean Runner

[CaptainAhab]

So, I was reading on WWM their thoughts on the Ocean Runner pumps (better, quieter, less prone to freeze up, etc). Anyone have any first hand experience with them?

Also trying to find the head loss chart for these. Might end up on the new 90.

Only thing I heard about them is they are good for modding and using on skimmers. Sorry...I know that doesn't help...lol

Well at the rate I'm going I'll be dead before it gets finished anyway.

There is a head loss chart in the Doctors Foster and Smith AQ supplies catalogue. Everyones a sleep so I can scan it to you later. What max or model are you looking at?

 

[thincat]

(1) 2500=8.5'
(2) 3500=10.5'
(3) 6500=12.5'
I hope this helps.

Thanx,

More looking for the gradient chart for each model showing relative flow at varying head height.

Okay Capt, Maybe this will help.

go to bottom of page #1 and click on ocean runner link above picture of goby. This should take you to a page with the chart on it. You have to scroll down.

Yea, thanx.. I found it the other day. it's actually on page 3 of that doc. The legend is by number even though the lines are by color. So I missed it..
