But now I have dual 584s installed. Pretty crazy.
A single 584 was pulling about 20ish scfh of air. Dual 584s are right now pulling about 15-16scfh each so about 30-32scfh total which is about 6scfh less then the Aquamaxx EM300 I had was pulling.
Watts drawn right now are between 147-148watts which is on par with the 684 at full power. So, about the same flow maybe. Definitely a lot more then previous as I had to quickly open up the gate valve a good amount as the water level quickly shot up and flowing into the collection cup. Which I'll have to clean out in the next couple of days and start tracking the skimmate production after I get the water level dialed in.
But that air draw.... It's noticeably the most air in that body yet and swirling around like crazy. Much more microbubbles escaping then even the 784 at full power. Definitely not a setup if your sump can't handle microbubbles. I designed my sump specifically to completely stop any amounts of microbubbles from getting to the return pump and this is the perfect test for it and is passing with flying colors.
Took video of starting up. All the crackling at the beginning is the water getting sucked out of the airline tubes as the injectors are underwater a bit. Seems to be keeping them cleaned out ok.
