Re: Alpha One impeller flow.

Depends on the drive ratio, there are actually instructions & specs for a flow test in the shop manual.

[QUOTE=seapotato]Does anyone know how many gallons per hour Alpha One impeller produce? It would depend on a bit more information input. It would depend on r.p.m., drive ratio, would the water source be pressurized or not, etc... Just curious, why do you need to know the answer to this? Ed

Re: Alpha One impeller flow.

Mbam: the ratio is 1.48:1

I have Seloc and Clymer manuals. Nothing in there.

What manual has water flow data? Thx.
***********
Ed: the rpms are: 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000. I want to know how many gph for each of those (or what info is available).

Drive ratio is 1.48:1

The water is not presurized, just outboard water.

I intend to build an alarm when the water flow is under the requested level.
thx.
