agree  Sladjana: Ja, so ist es auch bei Pumpen :-)
16 mins
disagree  Johannes Gleim: Nein, so ist es nicht. Förderdruck = manometric pressure. See http://dict.leo.org/ende?lp=ende&lang=de&searchLoc=0&cmpType...

neutral  Hans G. Liepert: ich kann mir nicht vorstellen, dass sich da Volumen (m3) bei unterschiedlichem Druck wesentlich ändern würde, erst recht bei Dry Bulk

Da ich früher in einer Pumpenvertriebsfirma als Angebotsbearbeiter tätig war, bin ich mir ganz sicher.

neutral  Harry Borsje: head can be specified in bar or meters; without knowledge of the specified units one cannot tell; futhermore, I'm not so sure it is very meaningful to specify flow rate at a certain head (as, in metres, this is the max. pump height at *zero* flow)
1 hr
  -> pressure head is measurerd in [m], at least in Germany
agree  Hans G. Liepert
