SW2512 and pump problems [RE-wrenches]

[Bob-O Schultze, Electron Connection]

<x-flowed>Yo Windy,
PLEASE correct me if I'm out of date, but I thought those cool 
Grunfos soft start jobs were only available in 237vac???? If so, Jack 
would need a step-up Xformer as well.

>I would suggest either switch to a 3-wire pump (somewhat less 
>surge/use one with a Franklin 1/3HP motor, 115V), or a Grundfos SQ 
>electronic motor AC pump (soft start, no surge). Efficiency is 
>probably similar with either of these, except for the no surge with 
>more expensive SQ.

>Another possibility is to pump once a day, or once every few days, 
>into a storage tank, then use a DC pressurizing pump like Flowlight 
>Booster Pump, to handle the frequent pressurizing.
