We use this one Cliff, on our soon to be gone M***in  :)

Had it for 6 months or so and all seems fine and puts out about 65 psi. Shop around for stainless fittings tho...we needed some in a hurry and the local Hyphose charged us nearly 40 quid for 3 fittings!

My merlins going on monday lol
I asked pure freedom and they said i could do with a pump that does over 80psi so that puts that 1 out of the question.
Thanks for the reply though.
What are you going for next ?

I have used this one for about a year and a half now, and it really is a great pump. I cannot tell you  what psi as it goes off the gauge at 110psi.

Hi Roy

Just interested in how long it takes to fill your tank at over 100 PSI must be really quick. Could you gestimate how long it would take to fill a 650 tank ?

Much appreciated

I have a 650 tank and if it was empty it would take about 2 1/2 hours. With 20" filters and a 40 x 40 ro with 1/2 pipe work feeding the water.
