[RE-wrenches] Pump power

[Jay]

Hi Bill

I would not recommend the Sqflex as it does have that gpm/height possibility but would recommend the Grundfos SQ.

The 22SQ15-220 will do what you want.
1.5hp, soft start, 240vac, way less expensive, uses a bit more power.

Peltz power.

Dynamic head while pumping at 20 GPM is 150 ft from water level to wellhead and then its 85 ft vertical to storage tank so 235 ft total head to open discharge.  We would like to get most of that 20 GPM, we need to know if there is personal experience with starting a 1.5 or 2 HP, 240 vac, 2 wire submersible pump against that kind of head with an Outback Flex Power2 (2 X VFXR3648A-01 inverters).
