? about Iwaki pump....
I just picked up a 2 year old Iwaki MD-30 RXT. My question is based on the RXT designation. All the sites that I have checked that sell these pumps say that RLT pumps are for pressure applications and RLXT pumps are for circulation and wet/dry return. My pump is a RXT which is neither RLT or RLXT, so which type is my pump (pressure or circulation)? Since it has the "X" in it I would assume it's for pressure but I'm really not sure.
Anyone out there know which one it is? I've searched the net a few times but came up empty. TIA. |

I have an older iwaki that is just the rxt also. Bought it new and it is not the pressure rated pump. I'm guessing they just changed the lettering a little on the model #'s. All the ones with an x are still the circulation and L for pressure.
From Premium aquatics: Note - IWAKI RLT are Pressure Rated pumps designed to pump into pressure canister filters or any situation that can create back pressure. IWAKI XT models are for standard circulation such as return from wet/dry. The pressure models are also suitable for standard return. |

Thanks, Furnman, I think that link has my pump on it. Judging by the last chart my pump is a circulation pump.
