how many AMPS does this pump pull?

I believe it said 7 amps. fixed in a hole now so can not pull out and double check. Really shoots the water. I use it for are large kio pond.

How many amps does your compressor pull? It may be too many for such a small inverter.

This pump is 12 volt, however mine quit working after about 8 hours of use. I am now looking for a better pump.

It says 1.4 amps @ 115 volts on the pump I have. I believe that is 161 Watts or .161 kW

It depends on the draw of the pump. If the pump does not draw more than the 6 or 15 amps (depending on the model you purchase) then you should be good.

I ran my pump off of my camper batteries (12 volts) using rather heavy duty jumper cables several years ago. I don't know how much current it draws, but as I recall, the pump has a thermal overload or fuse, maybe both, but check the manual. On the other hand, if you intend to supply the operating current with a "jumper box" capable of delivering 15 amps, it's output is probably protected by a fuse or breaker as well. Check it's manual to be sure. If it is protected, I would suggest you try to run the pump with the jumper box. It may overload the jumper box, but it won't be a short. I suspect that the pump will draw less than 15 amps. I ran my pump off of my camper batteries (12 volts) using rather heavy duty jumper cables several years ago.

I'm using mine on a pool pump. My 1 HP pump draws 15 amps. The way I read the ratings on the timer is; it is rated for using both outlets at the same time. I am only using one outlet and it has been working fine for a couple of weeks now.

We have used this pump all summer and were able to pull down to 25 to 50 microns. Lots of factors that ratings would be of no use when pulling a vacuum on different systems.

not sure how many amps it pulled but I ran it off a motorcycle battery no trouble

It draws up to 15 amps. I have mine for quite some time now and am most pleased with it

Its 50 watts, which translates to about 4.2 amps. Its a very nice pump. capable of running alot of sponge filters, or a large pond

Check the amp rating in the pump. These relays are rated at 15amps so if your pump is pulling less then 15amps you will be ok. If not, you will have to wire in a higher capacity relay so that the remote relay activated the higher relay which will activate the pump. And 100' is no problem for the remote relay I hope this helps

15 amps, and it will pull the full 15 amps when starting up the compressor. After starting, it evens out below the 15.

Depends. Are you running it 115V or 230V. The pump is 1.5 hp. 1 hp = 745.7 watts. V x A = W or volts times amps = watts. 745.7 times 1.5 hp = 1118.5 1118.5w/230V = 4.86A 1118.5/115 = 9.73A Take your pick.

Unfortunately I had a typo in my question; I wanted to know the amperage rating for this pump.

I just installed one of these pumps and I used one, 100 watt panel wired directly to the pump. It operates just fine, only runs when the sun is just right on the panel but where I am in Calif. it operates for about 4 hours this time of year and probably will run longer in the summer. It also pumps about 1.6 gal. per min. which is very adequate for my use. The 4 amp at 24 volts is the max amount of amps that the pump will handle.. I think my panel put out a max of 2.6 amps. Hope this helps. I opted not to use batteries, just more upkeep and expense.

the total current draw should not exceed 15amps. if the pump is used in conjunction with other components, oveload current protection (ffuse or curcuit breaker) and wire size for the total amps requirements of all devices on the circuit.John Butler
