    It's going to be pretty small. Maybe a 400 gpd membrane? The motor size doesn't always tell you the size of the pump. There should be a ProCon model number on the pump. You will need that to determine the size of the pump.

    Look at the numbers stamped into the pump head, particularly the middle that is oxidized. Odds are the first three in the middle stamping...that is your pump gph. Odds are that either a 35 or a 60 on that 1/4 to. If it's a 60's it will flow a 400gpd membrane (or 2 in series). Mark
    2017- Started small-made 7 gallons. Long days & few nights on a 1x2 and turkey fryer.

    2018- Bought a 2x4 and built a small scale RO. 21 gallons.

    2019- moved up to 100 gph procon for my home built RO. Built a steamhood. About 220 taps and 21 gallons again.

    2020- 140 procon on the R0. Added a new mainline at my in laws. 330 taps for 24 gallons, sold excess sap.

    111A100F11AA250... This is the model # of my pump. 111 is the pump series and composition. The 100 following the A is the GPH of my pump. The last AA250 refers to relief valve settings and max pump pressure. Odds are your pump volume in gph is under the oxidation (that I can't make out) and it looks like the pressure max is 200 psi?

    I did a bit of looking around and couldnt find anything on those numbers....
    Closest thing I found, was a similar number on a pump for sale.. (from a carbonator of some sort...??)
    Found a spec sheet for the Reo Pure system with some GPD ratings...

    I suspect if you sent your photo to Procon... someone there could give you the pump specs.?

    Could very well be, that it was a private label sort of thing... Custom pump for a particular customer.... That number looks like a serial number of some sort... I bet procon can identify it.

    Bob I typed in brass procon pump 200 psi information on google search and brought up a list of pumps and photos. Try this and see if it helps you out.

    I have a PDF of their spec nomenclature. This doesn't quite fit their usual, but I be willing to bet based on what I found that is a brass short pump with clamp on and plastic coupling. Clockwise spin pump. No Relief valve, rated 15 GPH (probably more like 18-19) and can generate up to 200 psi. I have no data on flow vs PSI, but Id be willing to bet flow maxes out around 100 psi and drops with increase in pressure... probably drops to about 8-10 gph at 200psi. Mark
