Each FPS-16A model can produce more or less than 270LPM depending on the head that it is operating at.
All the models on this page are capable of producing from 170LPM to 340LPM efficiently. They can operate outside that range for short periods of time, but over long periods of time it may shorten the life of the motor. See image below for “Pump Operating Range” and “Best Efficiency Range”.
The amount of water that you get depends on the head that the pump is operating at.
For example, the FPS-16A-06 (which is a 1.1kw / 1.5hp bore pump), will produce 320LPM when operating at a head of 168m. This same pump will produce 210LPM if it is operating at a head of 13m. It will produce a lesser flow of 200LPM if operating at a head of 19m.
Please remember that the ‘Head’ is not just the depth that the pump is set at down the bore casing. To learn more on how to calculate the ‘head’, please go here: How to Calculate the ‘Total Head’.

Marion went above and beyond my expectations in listening to my needs and tailoring a solution for me. Amazing customer service and great product thankyou. (purchased a household pressure pump). Cheers Nick
I bought a Franklin 6 inch bore pump and it was dispatched the following day. Too easy!!! Love the service. (purchased a Franklin Electric 6 six inch bore pump). Thanks Jake
Easy purchase and very impressive turn around between order and delivery. Thank you. (purchased a Franklin Electric submersible motor)
Thank you Marion for your assistance in choosing the right bore pump for my needs. Your estimation of pressure with respect to type of sprinklers was spot on. A good service.
Submersible bore pump at an excellent price and don’t be put off by the distance away as freight service was very prompt and included in the overall price. My first call or email will be to Marion when I need another pump. Highly recommend Strongman pumps.
I have bought two sump pumps from this business in the last few years. This is an excellent business as Marion has always been extremely helpful in choosing the best pump for the job. I have been very happy with how quickly my pumps have been delivered. An excellent business to deal with.
Thank you for your assistance in processing our order over the weekend. The pond pump arrived and was left at our door when we woke at 6.30 am today. Fantastic service. Much appreciated.
Thanks Marion for your prompt action on my order. The pump motor arrived within a week and the bore is back in service. (purchased a Franklin Electric 4″ submersible motor)
