BX24 Flow rate

[Aquaman]

I'm sorry to ask this because I'm sure it's been discussed but I can't seem to find it searching. Does anybody know what the flow rate is at the power beyond on the rear of a BX24? Will be running about 3000 rpm. Thank you

If my memory serves me right, its somewhere 5.5 gpm. Geez, I gotta get one of those shop manauls with all this info.

Per WSM, 6.2 GPM @3200 RPM...

Thank you very much!! I don't know what we did before we had forums!

Darn it ! I was close. thanks for the correction botabigot! maybe I was think of 2500 rpms with 5.5 ? does your WSM say ?

The total GPM for the BX24 / 50 series is 6.3 GPM (I'm looking at a brochure), but approx 2.6 is dedicated to power steering, so the available GPM to the FEL, 3PH or remotes would be only 3.7. Can't find the exact GPM for power steering, but those numbers should be very close. (The power steering GPM is not broken out in the brochure or owner's manual, but I've seen it somewhere.)

That sounds close...some amount of the total flow is dedicated to the steering with a priority valve.

After reading three different sections in the WSM, here's the complete story...

Total output at pump 6.2 GPM @3200 RPM. Flow priority valve allocates constant 2.5 GPM to steering...so, remainder (3.7 GPM max) goes to implements. I apologize for not doing enough reading first time around...
