Please help me determine if this is possible...
I"d like to rent a 1000 GPM trash pump, hard line, and soft line to pump water from a deep, fast moving creek to a stock tank. The challenge is that the creek is 600 feet away from the tank and about 15 FT lower in elevation. The pump I would rent is a Multiquip MQ62TDD 1083 GPM. I"ve calculated the volume of water needed to fill the tank to be 180,000 gallons. My concern is the distance of 600 feet from creek to tank. Would the distance and friction be greater than the pumps ability? Does anyone know of a good internet resource to calculate efficiency of pumps with distance and lift?
