pump head pressure basics

The video tutorial explains the concept of head pressure in pumps, highlighting its measurement in feet or meters due to the varying properties of different liquids. It discusses the importance of head pressure in ensuring pumps can move liquids to higher elevations, overcoming friction and pressure losses. The tutorial also covers pump charts, illustrating the relationship between head pressure and flow rate, and explains how flow rate is measured in various units.
