Oil pressure?

[Anders(sweden)]

Hi guys!

Have been working on my psd-boat project today. After som short test runs something realy bad happend. The oil hose betwen the oil-outlet and regulator exploded .
What kind off crazy pressure are we talking about here I use industrial 20bar hose. Its pre regulator pressure we are talking about.
I have spent the last 4 hours cleaning the mess up.

The high pressure pump puts out 400 to 700 lbs. at idle and up to 2700 lbs.
at full rpm. So your 20 bar hose is not going to cut it.

Its not the hose from the hpop,
the hose that blowed is connected on the oil-outlet where the original oil cooler used to be.

that would be for the low pressure oil system then. spec for it is 40-70 psi.......hope that helps.......Marc
