Pump and Tank questions for Aeroponics
Wish they gave more info on the pump. It looks like a shallow well pump, which should be capable of 50psi.
In a setup like that, the pump will come on with a pressure drop (maybe 10psi?) not from volume moved. Make sure you set the air pressure in the tank to whatever the max pressure you can get out of your well pump so that you get max pressure output untill pump kicks in again.
Hope it works for you this time, and good luck.oldmac Reviewed by oldmac on . Pump and Tank questions for Aeroponics I'm creating a high pressure system and tonight I tested it. Fail! It would seem that the pump I bought it too powerful or something. The water is coming out at the misters really hot. What I think is that the pump needs more flow then what I am allowing and thus the pump is probably working harder then it needs too and causing the water in the chamber to boil over. I think most industrial aero setups use a tank between the pump and misters so that's what I am going to do unless I hear Rating: 5
