    Can't give you 9000 but have the data for 8000.

    800 pump flows
    5000 - 11.0
    6000 - 13.2
    8000 - 17.4


    900 pump flows
    6000 - 14.6
    8000 - 19.4

    As far as I know Waterman don't make a single 850 for alcohol. Those flows are pretty linear so you can compute it out for 9000. I am sitting at an airport just coming back from Sweden and my mind has cobwebs

    pumps

    Waterman makes a 850, they are pretty common. 850, 851, whatever it takes ...:cool:

    approximate flows are like saying I'm approximately 20% of the way between Orange, Texas and El Paso, Texas.

    thanks Mike

    looks like i was right on my thinking, 800 about 19gpm at 9000
    I saw a flow sheet online for one someone was selling on rjunk

    hope you had a good trip

    Thanks, I had a great trip. Flew to Copenhagen, then across the bridge to Sweden. Stayed at Adams house then we took the FC to Alastaro, Finland on the ferry for the FIA drag race. We were beat by the Leanders Brothers (Leanders clutch fame) in round 2 by .0018 seconds. What is amazing is that Jonnie Lindberg ran a 5.49 sec run. Jonnie has set the new European FC record. They call it TMFC over there, Top Methanol Funny Car. Steve Harkers old FC was also there which is owned and driven by Leif Andresson. He held the previous record of 5.55 seconds.

    It wouldn't be a bad idea to take that pump on RJ and have your guy flow it, there is usually a variance (can be substantial) in flowbenches. One of the biggest differences I've seen is variance in inlet temp, if your pump was flowed in December in Maine that's quite a difference from Kentucky in July. Some people don't monitor it/put it on the flow sheet, but those who do try to ensure it's a consistent number. On a 900 Waterman I have seen over 2G at 9000 rpm with a good variance in the inlet temp. Just food for thought, good luck.

    flow

    my point was assuming a pump flows what it is supposed to is not wise.

    Understand your point and it is valid, but I think it was a more of wanting to know the flow so to buy the correct size pump.
