You want to keep the coolant speed under 5 fps, to minimize the pressure loss within the tubing.

5 gpm (300 gph) in 1/2 tubing is 8 feet-per-second.

So with a US version of the Iwaki MD20-RZ this would translate to roughly 9.5lpm flow rate.
9.5lpm=2.5gpm

5gpm flowrate sounds pretty unrealistic to me...

since im planning to get teh md20rz, would 2.5gpm be under 5fps?
what kind of performance increase would i see with 5/8 tubing?

thanks
