Hey guys i have been designing my own scrubber based loosly on SM's as the length is what i like about it as it is going on top of my DT so all the pods can drop into the DT. one thing is that the SM uses a 3/4" pipe and is flowing quiet alot of water (approx 900gal)which would be better suited to a 1" ID pipe. i know the discharge area from the slot(aprox 19cm^2) is much greater then the 3/4 pipe(3.32cm^2) but wouldn't a 3/4 pipe restrict flow by a large amount compared to a 1" pipe (5.4cm^2) and thus reduce the total flowrate of the pump?
