On the Vac -Con <br />Model 390THA/1000 the change in GPM while maintaining <br />the 2,000 P.S.I. is accomplished by changing the size of <br />the hose (600 ft.) and the nozzle size or by changing <br />the stuffing boxes, plungers and packing in the water <br />pump which are items not supplied in the bid.
