Pressure test query?

[macka09]

Hi all
I’m having to fit a Stuart Turner pump to an install that will be fed from a tank.

However, I’d like to get the install tested including the pump if possible but without it connected to the break tank, as that isn’t available at the moment.

Would I have to bypass the pump to test the rest of the pipe work or could I temporarily connect to the pump via an incoming mains?

I believe the pump operates at 1.5 bar.
Cheers

if you limit the flow to 12lpm you should be fine

Any suggestions for something to go into 15mm or 22mm?. I’ve only got prvs to hand.

🫣 it’s been a long day today. I Have ballofix valves. At 7bar incoming I may have to use the pro as well.
