Hello everyone,
I would like to make a voltage regulator for my 12-volt dc water pump. I have some experience with electronics but no formal training so all help with this is very much appreciated.
I use the same 12-volt dc pump on a few different vehicles that the battery voltage output will varies (12.80 to as high as 14.5 dc volts) and because of this the speed or volume of the pump will also go up or down. The water pump only pumps 1.1 gallon per minute, which is perfect for my application. So I need to keep the pump running as constant as possible.
12 Volt Dc water pump specs.
Shurflo pump model 8005-292-139
The amp draw is 1.9 amps with a maximum draw of 3.8 amps.
Pressure setting for this pump, 45 PSI, I use this for circulating water so the pump has no more then 5 10 PSI
I would like to keep the input volts at 13.0 + .5 volts. Also, I would like to do it as easy as possible.
Thanks for everyones input and help with this.
