FAQ
Q1: What does “no bypass” mean on the THOT500 pump?
It means the pump does not include an internal pressure relief bypass, so flow is controlled externally within the system design.
Q2: What is the flow rate of the Fluid-o-Tech THOT500?
The pump delivers approximately 165 GPH or 2.75 GPM depending on operating conditions.
Q3: What industries use this pump?
It is widely used in beverage systems, water treatment, industrial cooling, and OEM fluid handling equipment.
Q4: Is the THOT500 suitable for continuous operation?
Yes, its rotary vane design is built for continuous-duty performance in compatible systems.
Q5: What material is the pump made from?
The housing is typically brass with internal carbon/graphite vane components for durability.
