Just brought two new MP40’s online tonight. I put them both in constant flow mode at 100%. After about 15 minutes one of them shutdown and blinked green/red.
After looking at it I realized how much hotter this pump was compared to its partner. Much hotter. I unplugged the problem pump, plugged it back in and turned down to about 50% flow. It has been running fine since but is still noticeably hotter than the other. Is this normal? Should I not run them at 100% right out the box? The other pump seems fine.
I’m more curious about the difference in the two pumps. Seems they should run pretty close to the same.
Any thoughts?
