what is the maximum temperature of water or liquids this pump can allow?

There is plastic inside and the friction creates heat. I think it relies on the liquid being pumped to cool it down and not melt the plastic. I would not use it to pump anything more then luke warm.I pumped more than 100 gal of heavy liquid 8' high in few hours and it's still working.

Wish I could tell you, but as the pump only ran for 30 seconds before it ate itself up I don't know. I was only trying to pump cold water.

I have not used it in hot water just cold but I assume it can withstand water that is pretty hot as long as the rubber hose can take it. Good luck.

No. While a piston pump and some submersible pumps can produce enough pressure to rupture lines, a centrifugal pup will not. The maximum pressure will puss water up about 100 feet maximum. However, cooling can become a problem as the water is not flowing. It is a good feature of this type pump. It is best to have some water able to pass through the pump for cooling, even if not a great deal, say a few gallons per minute.

I could find no mention of water temperature restrictions on the box or in the instructions. Since the unit is all plastic, I would guess that very hot or boiling water would damage it or at least limit its lifespan. I use the meters on outside hoses and drip irrigation, so I have not run any hot water through them.

I don't know sorry. The water isn't very hot though at its highest temp. I am using the kettle now. :(

it's not the water flow that you adjust .it's is the max water temperature that you adjust !

Nothing will happen to it, it will be fine. It may get a little warm but that is ok. Hope it answered your question. It's a great pump. Nearly indestructible. I am on my 2nd one had the first one for 8 years and used it constantly. Highly reccommend this pump.

Yes, the pump should be able to develop its rated pressure in the tank as long as its maximum rated flow is not exceeded by flow demand out of the tank.

I thought temp to be approx. 220 degrees. I remember it being the highest temp of similar machines at the time I purchased. It is very light, maybe 2 pounds when full of water.

Whatever temp your engine runs, this pump is meant to be use on a vw/audi and they run under 200 degrees

I never intended to test this object to the extreme. I have never planned to use it with water hotter than 85 degrees. I guess it would pop if you did something deliberately extreme like fill it with BOILING HOT water.

I don't see why water temp of 105 degrees would be any problem. The housing material appears to be capable to handle that water temp just fine. The pump works fine and is self priming. Very compact compared to others. Has very good pressure. Good price for a good pump.

It is not weather resistant, it is unsealed and water could probably damaged the circuitry. Operating temperature is 14° - 122° Fahrenheit

To my knowledge, there is no temperature rating on this. It is intended for filling aquariums and so I would assume it is meant to handle water from 50 - 100 degrees f.

All depends on how many amps of power the pump needs. Since it is usb. 2.0 it can only supply 1amp

Under Features and Details it claims the following: "Food Grade Material, Maximum Working Fluid Temperature: 275F"
