Re: a beckett/suntec cleancut pump or similar unit:
Specs state operating pressure of 100-200 PSI.
Most of them I see are set to run between 100 and 140PSI.
So, the question....
Would higher pressures, such as 170 - 185 PSI have any negative effect on the reliability of the pump, coupler, motor, etc?
Cheers.
