How much flow is needed to run this hopper? I am interested in turning my keene a51 sluice into a high banker. The problem I have is that the areas I prospect only allow electric pumps for most of the year. I have a 3700gph bilge pump. How much flow is needed to operate the hopper/sluice combo effectively?

Thanks in advance,

Should be Ok with that. Remember the farther you get away from the pump the less water you will receive in the crash box. Check out Doc's video on his RAPTOR highbanker. He talks about the pump selections (including the 3700 GPH Bilge pump!)
