Performance & Sizing
The 3545.3400 is a positive-displacement pump, so it has no flow-versus-pressure curve in the sense a centrifugal pump does, and Cat Pumps does not publish one. Flow is set by the displacement and the shaft speed and stays essentially constant as discharge pressure rises. Pressure is set by the restriction downstream — the nozzle, orifice or membrane array — and capped by the regulating device, not by the pump.
This is a belt-drive frame, so the pulley ratio sets the pump speed. To work out flow at another speed, or to size the drive, use the relations Cat Pumps prints on its data sheets:
| Flow at another speed | Desired GPM = Rated GPM × (Desired RPM ÷ Rated RPM) |
| Required horsepower | HP (electric brake) = GPM × PSI ÷ 1460 |
Rated speed for this model is 765 rpm.
Maximum ratings apply individually — do not assume maximum flow and maximum pressure can be taken together. A primary pressure-regulating device and a secondary safety relief device are both required in the system. Talk to us before ordering if your duty sits near a limit.
