Performance data
Flow rates are normalised test values obtained
using new tubing with the pumphead rotating clock-
wise pumping water at 20C with negligible inlet and
discharge pressure. Actual flow rate achieved may
vary because of changes in temperature, viscosity,
inlet and discharge pressures, system configuration
and tubing performance against time. Flow rates
may also vary due to normal manufacturing
tolerances of the tubing. These tolerances will make
flow rate variance more pronounced at smaller bore
sizes.
For precise and repeatable performance it is
important to determine flow rates under
operating conditions for each new piece of
tubing.
Note: Flow rates quoted have been rounded for
simplicity, but are accurate to within 5%, well
within the normal tubing tolerance variation of flow
rate. They should therefore be taken as a guide.
Real flow rates in any application must be
determined empirically.
