Hey Darrell, thanks for the information! It looks like you have a Artis PDS1-130-1240E pump. The Flow Max RV Fresh Water Pump item # LC689052 you were looking at, would be a great replacement. This is also a 12 volt, 3 gallon per minute pump, that is almost the same size at 8" long x 5-1/4" wide x 5" tall. It also uses the same 1/2" diameter hose fittings.

The main difference as you pointed out is the slightly higher PSI rating. Your Artis shuts off at 45 psi and the Flow Max item # LC689052 shuts off at 50 psi. This won't negatively affect the function or use of your plumbing system.

What kind of trailer or motorhome do you have?

Hey Darrell, did you decide to go with the Flow Max pump for your water system? I'm curious if the slightly higher PSI worked well for your setup, as it could help others with similar needs.
