Is there a recommended operating water pressure for these CIP devices? My intention is to use a pump and I am thinking it would require a fair amount of pressure. :think:

You're on the ball mate, these are the final few things we're just working out this arvo.

I've figured for mains pressure after researching a national average I come to about 40 to 50 psi, but I dont have the gear here at the ready to test my bunnings pump :crying-blue:

It'd be good to get some feedback from anyone on what pressure a bunnings pump has through 1/2" lines at a head of about 2 to 3 meters, I could then get a ballpark where to start :pray:
