I must still be missing something. The Superflow 1020 is rated for 65" of
water at 165 cfm. My calculator says that's less than 2.5 psi. According to
Eaton's charts, a model 112 blower will produce almost 200 cfm at 2.5 psi on a
little more than 3 hp.
I guess the problem must be that 1000cfm that Superflow talks about.
BTW Keith, you forgot to account for phase angle and motor efficiency. 75A @
220v is more like an honest 15hp output.
