Slurry tanker pump size

[NI farmer]

Any one know what size of vacuum pump is right for 2700 gallon tanker
11000 litres or 13000
Can the pump be to big

My 2600 gallon Hispec has an 11,000 litre Jurop pump.

What's size pipe will you be filling with?
If only single 6" then 11,000 be big enough,
Big pump really needs double 6" or an 8" to get benefit

Pump can be too big if you're spreading on steep ground, going for the smaller one will allow you to have a few extra revs on to maintain forward speed. Hydraulic changeover will pretty much cancel the benefits of going to the 13,000 as you can have vacuum built by the time you get the pipe on.
