Is anyone here selling pumps.
Or would you recommend a pump around 120lpm

K.H uses a big Tellarini from this range for his processing:
http://www.tellarini.com/inglese/prodotti2b_ing.htm
I have a couple of them, a little one ENM25 (53lpm) to transfer oil and a brand new big one ENM40 (149lpm) which is "in the collection" but I've not found a use for yet.
They really are beautiful pumps, as they self-prime, are reversible, are ever so quiet in operation and not closed impeller like a lot of pumps of that flow (so less likely to block).
I'm trying to work out if I would be willing to part with the bigger one, since I'm not using it - but you know what it's like, part with it then want to use it for something like building a big processor.
If you want pressure for running a venturi/eductor well then the multi-stage Calpedas are the bees knees - the MHXM range. Stainless lovelyness and great for pressure, however closed impeller so can block up with lumps in the oil.

Do occasionally turn up on eBay.

I should think the ENM 40 would be ok for my venturi as I only use it for demething.I suck the methoxide in via processor pump.
The ENM40 looks like far to big a pump than you need ;D

The Pedrollos are ok, i use to have one on my plant,
BTW my batches are 300lt + thats why the big pump ;)
-
Not a fan of Pedrollos, I have an 80lpm one with brass impeller, I would say it actually shifts about 50lpm and that's with hot bio.
-
I've only had one Pedrollo pump, said to be 80ltr/min, it would only run backwards.
The most reliable and consistent pumps I've used are Stuart Turner 903, 80ltr/min (but turns out 90), tremendous flow and pressure.

well lets hope this one runs the right way.

600ltr/min?
That'll punch a hole in the opposite side of the drum.

its a misprint init

HFm51B top flow rate is 300lpm but it doesn't have much power behind it (quite a flat curve, low max head) so will be nowhere near that with veg.

The 600lpm is the HFm5A
