Minimum PSI for peristaltic pump #7

Closed rzulian closed 3 years ago

Hey, Do you know if there are a minimum requirements for the peristaltic pumps in terms of PSI?

I think the required power of the pump depends on the height between the injection and subtraction ends. Keep in mind that it will only be injected when the pool pump is running, so the stream of water in the back line will help injecting liquids.
