Dolphin Pump in line pump

[shepbird07]

I need help with a old Dolphin pump. I have had it for 6 years. Never been used. I need to find information on it so I know the GPH. It is all red with the front and back having a black color cap. Here is the following information on it if any one has information a manual on it or knows where I can locate one I would appreciate it. I have set up a new 180 gallon reef system and transfered everything from my other tank and I need a larger pump to run separate from my chiller.


Model # sm-1212-nhw-21 1"
part # 6341.9
serial #736214

max fluid temp 140F
max Presure 50PSI
1/15 HP
3400 RPM
140 watt
1.3 AMP
8.5UF
115 v 1p 60 HZ

Maybe someone can figure out gph from this information???

Thanks

When I did a search, it appears to deliver 2800 GPH

Which I'm not to sure I would feel safe using it for long since most pumps for saltwater use have special seals. But as far as flow rate it looks like it will put out 1080 at 0 head.

Did you find info on this? If so where.

Thanks

I saw the same info on:

Same color as mine but the details are wrong. It isn't the same pump. I don't believe it to be the same maker either...

Thanks

[shepbird07]

Same color lay out but it isn't the same pump. Mine wasn't made for hot tubs.

After looking at the pump picture it isn't the same design at all. I got this online at a popular saltwater company.

Thanks..

Anyone else own one of these??????

How did your move go? Did everthing turn out ok? Do you miss FL yet?

If that is in fact a Dolphin external pump... they are based in Pensacola and very friendly.

I have been using dolphin pumps for a long time but I do not recall any with a red housing (not that it does not exist).

I sent her a pic of the ID plate w/ info and she got me all the specs I could want - good luck

I got out the glasses and see that it was made in 12/1999. lol
So it was awhile back. Looks new still. It is something that I never
hooked it up. I forgot I even had it until today. I called them and left them a message this afternoon but haven't had anyone call me back. I will try to take a picture of it and put it on here.

[shepbird07]

I will contact her. Thanks so much for the information. I'll get a picture of it.
