Zero PSI for filter

[Mcas]

Hi all, quick question. I want to run my variable speed pump at 1,000 RPM for 4-5 hours at night to filter the water. When I do, I notice the PSI on the filter is zero. Is this ok? I realize there isn't enough PSI to build up pressure but I assume all water is still going through and being filtered right? Note, I have a separate schedule where I have higher RPM when I run the booster pump for the cleaner, I run this about an hour a night.

Thanks!

Mike

If your pump is running then water is going through the filter. It can show a pressure of 0, not an issue.

Be aware that VS pumps have a lower limit of efficiency. At 1000 rpm you are right at it. So I would not go any lower.

What’s your psi at normal operation?
