I had a 3/4 HP self priming pump boosting the city pressure , the max pressure that pump can make is 4 Bar (56 PSI) . I have also a 24Liter pressure tank and a pressure switch
I set the pressure switch to 50/70 PSI ( which is the comfortable pressures for my house) and I had no problem in the past .
Recently the city pressure became very low so the pump would not shut off at that setting and it will eventually burn out if I did not notice to shut it off manually during that low pressure hours.
I posted here the problem and many memebers told me that I got the wrong pump because self priming pumps dont generate much of a pressure so I bought a 2HP cenrifugal pump ( Ebara 2CDX 70/20 ) which is the highest pressure I could find in that make for a single phase range , it can do 6Bar ( 84PSI) without depending on any city pressure and think it would work comfortably.
Did I buy the correct type of pump this time?
Please have a look to the pump spacs here at the following link and you can download the leaflet there as well

Main features are Q= 20 liter/min at Head = 60 m which is equal to 6 Bar or 84 PSI
Before I start the installation , I would very much appreciate your opinions or any tips
