Make 12 Volt Roof Cleaning Pumps Last Longer

Recommended Posts

12 volt roof cleaning pumps will often cycle on and off, especially if the nozzles are too small.

We can increase nozzle size so they no longer cycle, but often we don't want or need all that flow!

Here is a way to slow the motor of the pump down, to make the 12 volt roof cleaning pump pump "fit the nozzle"

Most ag-pumps are TENV (totally enclosed, no ventilation). Reducing the speed is going to drop the designed cooling speed. You might need to box the motor and run a cooling fan.

Experimentation will be needed, to see if this is practical.
