Can an enheim 1048 pump be mopunted upside down

inquisitivemind · 12-08-2002, 09:59 PM

Hello all,

I was just wondering if anybody happened to know if a enheim pump can be mounted upside down. i've heard something about cavitation occuring but was just wondering if this would happen in an inline system?

thanks for all your help in advance.

You should be able to mount it pretty much any way you want.

I personally can't see how cativation would occur just because of pump position.

My 1250 ran upside down for 4 months. Had no effect on flow or temps that I could measure.
