Hello,

I’m looking to get a feed pump for my CA reactor and came across this:

Stenner E20T4H71S8 Timed Compact Peristaltic Pump, 80 psi, 21.7 GPD; 120 V/60 Hz

https://www.coleparmer.com/i/stenne...ltic-pump-80-psi-21-7-gpd-120-v-60-hz/7420906

It’s continuous duty. I tried to search to see if others have used this pump, but didn’t find much. Is this a good option? Is there a better pump at a lower/same price point?

Hi there, unfortunately two of those pumps die on me in less than 2 years, I replaced with a new model kamoer, for now it's working fine, hope this work for you, by the way the part that got damaged was the DC motor in both pumps.

Better to hunt down a used master flex.
