I would guess a 5.6 the hydramaster titan has a 5.9 and has 750 cfm.

running at around 2200 rpm.

the prochem pump is running at around 3300 rpms to get 650 cfm

Everest - 408 cfm (sutorbilt TI408)

Everest 650 - 650 cfm (gardner denver TL650 triflow)


Both units are available as a HP (3000 psi general emperor water pump in lieu of the 1200 psi)

 

[Mikey P]

It's a Gardner Denver 4.10 Tri Lobe.

I was on GD's site, sill can't find it, some pubs say GD, some say SB - but they are 2 different models with HP options for either.

They are both using the hyundai 68 hp engine though

Anyone have any comments about those engines vs the former (nissan)?

 

[Vincent Feehan]

4 10 is correct, kinda miss leading.

 

[packfancjh]

what is miss leading Vincent?

 

[Lee Stockwell]

It doesn't have 4" gears and 10" wide lobes, per the normal naming system.

 

[packfancjh]

Just because they named this blower by CFM instead of lobe size means it's misleading? This blower is only used in the Everest application and even though it does have "4-10" gearing it still puts out great cfm.

 

[Lee Stockwell]

You can get 650 cfm with a 47 blower too, (at 5340rpm), the cfm number doesn't tell you the size of the blower in comparison to other similar units.

However manufacturers of machines have been fudging or obscuring the actual component identities for many years. Just be aware.


Thanks,
Lee
