MaxxxRacer · 03-09-2005, 03:43 AM

I am looking into building a test rig for WB reviews and I was wondering of the accuracy I could get with a pressure gauge that would measure from 0 to 7 psi.. This is about the range that we see in WC loops. 10PSI is for md30 and above.

So my question is will the psi rating work correctly with the corelation to the pq curve of the pump so that I can get flow ratings. Or is there another factor that I am not accounting for with this idea.

Any input would be great.
