QUOTE FROM THE SPEC:
PRESSURE SWITCH - cuts in at 1bar (15psi) - cuts out at 2.4bar (35psi)
I think you bought a turkey
If its for powering a decent length of hose that is.

Yes i noticed that also i hope you didn't pay much for it as its only 35psi.
You should be able to do most houses with it ok though, Just don't use microbore as that will restrict it further.

oh well damn!
it was gonna be used for one length of micro bore 100m...but!
i have one pump running 2 microbore (duplex 2) if i then go in to the new one wouldn't that boost it enough for the last reel
(3 reels with 100m length microbore on each.)

Best Solution - Buy a Varistream & disconnect the pressure switch. The Varistream will then control the pump.
You will then have a good system for the price of a Varistream + Cheap Pump.
