If you want to go that route there are small chemical pumps out there to
be had. Rated at 1000psi with magnetic coupling.
I was looking into to that a coupla years ago. You can buy one easy
enough. I'll see if I can find that link again.

Since this is attached to the system I am not sure of the weight and the
manual
does not specify it. I would imagine quite heavy.
The motor is about the size of
an electric radiator motor and the pump is about the same diameter and half
as long, According to the manual the pump is made out of 316 SS with PTFE
seals.
I sent an email off to the address on the manual and they replied
with the following.

Dear Mr. Runnalls
In Regards to your inquiry into part
No.26925DC12, Since the Radar/Sonar system that
used that pump has been discontinued for some 12
years, and our marine division has been shut down
for the last 3 years, we no longer carry either
the original brushed motors or the upgraded
replacement cooling pump system with the brushless motor.
I belive that the pumps were made for our former
company by Micropump from the UK.
I'm sorry that I could not be of more assistance to you.

I suppose that you could pump the tank to 200psi
and then get the 300 psi but that sort
of defeats the purpose of using the pump in the first place.
Not necessarily. Any small tank that isn't as
fragile as an eggshell will be able to hold a
couple hundred psi. Â 100 psi boost is a little
low, but if you had a system with 200 psi in the
tank and you could boost it to 500-600 psi with
a pump that would be worth something.
