2. Divide average daily water consumption by 5 to arrive at

equivalent hourly pumping capacity required from your
mill. This is based on wind conditions permitting your mill
to pump the equivalent of about 5 hours of rated capacity
per day. Naturally, this varies by locality.

3. Choose the cylinder diameter that is closest to the equivalent

hourly pumping capacity by using the Table of Capacities.
