12 volt dc bilge pump 70lpm 4200lph?
hi i have a 12v dc bilge pump and i am wondering can it be used to run a sprinkler? as i have a 250 litre water tank out in my garden and i want to use this pump to run 1 sprinkler here is the specs of the pump –
it is a marinepet brand bilge pump model no BL-2512I
12v dc, Current 5.4amp,4200 LPH OR 70 LPM , head max 4m , it also has a 1 inch outlet
i also have a 240v 800w garden water pump used with my 250 litre water tank but i need to know will the bilge pump be fine?
as my 240v 800w pump is playing up a bit
as my 240v 800w pump is playing up a bit
It works fine to a point, I wouldn’t use it for hours, say ten or fifteen minutes at a time unless a heavy duty type. Iv’e got one lying around somewhere that was used in a pond for years to run a little waterfall. A commercial power supply of around 10 amps @ 13.8 V didn’t get hot and the pump seemed real happy. They don’t last long blocked with weed or running dry though. The biggest problem lies in using smaller diameter hose – the pump loses a lot of capacity and the current goes up dramatically as the pump is straining against the restriction. An in-line pump, such as a galley pressure pump will be much more efficient in that case.
So if you use larger hose (poly pipe is cheap), and a low pressure sprinkler set-up (say two or three sprinklers off a common “T” or two “Y”s into 1/2″ pipe so the restriction is minimal) the bilge pump will work happily.
