Predecessor was a KSB pump with 750 Watt whose seal kit, which was defective, would have cost only 95.
Selection: Selection as was the idea again to buy a KSB pump. Price from 230 euros or a cheap model to choose. The previous life of KSB was approximately 16 years with a repair for 100 BSI for renewal.
If we add that now at the price of TIP pump, one arrives at a mileage of approximately 3 years until replacement. Let's see how long it lasts ;-)
So I got involved in the adventure and chosen this pump.
Performance: So far I could not notice any perceptible difference in the printing performance or Födermenge.
Ansaugstärke: Without Bewässeung the housing, the pump does not suck. At KSB in most cases this was possible.
Noise: The noise is unpleasant. The pump makes a bright sound which probably added are in the pump housing crackle a kind a certain residual air. Maybe that comes through an emerging from the water suction vacuum in the crankcase. Hard to explain ... Here I must still looking for a suitable sound insulation, because the pump is running in the house. There the point deduction
So far I had no failures for now just over a month period.
Buy recommendation, if you are not sensitive to noise.
