I’m having a problem with the Jebao DC12000 pump. It is is use as an in sump return pump and feeds a manifold that feeds the return to the tank and a chiller that is plumbed about 20 feet away out behind the house. When I start it up it runs fine for awhile and then slows down after some period of time. It seems that at the top flow rate or 2 it slows down after anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour or more. At the 3rd or 4th speed it has run from 2 hours to as long as 24 hours before slowing down.
When it slows down it seems like it’s running at 50% or even 33% of normal. If I turn the pump off for a minute or two and then turn it back on it goes through the normal slow start up and runs fine for whatever length of time and then slows down again.
I have a spare pump, so I left the power supply and controller and just swapped out the pump and nothing changed. So then I swapped the power supply and controller and it still does the same thing.
Any ideas what is happening?
