1.5" pvc full siphon gph

[buck27]

Can anyone tell me what the full siphon gph is on 1.5" pvc? Going from overflow to under the tank sump.

The chart says 2100 gph

The only thing not clear to me is that flow increases with the length of drop (think negative head pressure), so it may be that a long drop drain would be somewhere between the gravity/low and medium numbers. Probably to a sump right under the tank the 2,100 gph number is a good guess.

That chart.

I am flowing about 3500 GPH through 1 plus a little of another 1.5 inch drains. I have 2 full siphon drains with valves and 2 1.5 inch emergencies.

It could be what ever you want once you put a valve on it. (I think). I know I am not turning over 2100 gph, my Varios 4 pump is rated at only 1000 gph
