I have a JetsMunt, HP Tech ZP30020S fuel pump for 160N to 230N turbines. I want to run it off of a 3S LiPo using a brushed ESC. I have been searching to try to find data as to amp draw to no avail so that I can use an appropriately sized ESC, and since it will never be running at full speed, ever, will there be an issue with running it off of a 3S LiPo, it is listed as 6V nominal. There are other parts of the system that need the extra voltage of the 3S.
This is going to be the fuel pump for my pulse jet. The pump speed is adjusted to give the proper air fuel mixture, it does not give throttle control. run the pump to slow and the PJ runs lean and burns up, run it to fast and the PJ runs rich and burns up. I will have it set up on a knob on my TX to dial in the pump speed, once I have it just right I will have that channel set up as an on/off switch.
I will be running a separate battery for the flight gear.
So has anyone ever measured the amp draw of their fuel pump?
