Magtool Gyre flow pump urgent measurement required.

[Duane family]

Hi all. Can anyone assist with the measurement of the magnet thickness of a magtool gyre flow pump. I need to set a tank away from a wall and concerned about the magnet thickness.

Many thanks

from the diagram on amazon it appears it would be no more than 1-2cm.

Thanks, I figure the same but if I'm wrong I'm buggered big time. Easy to move an empty tank.

Just leave some space behind the tank, it doesn't need to be 100% flush. In fact, putting the tank flush against the wall is almost guaranteed to cause issues later. Thinking water drips, light and other equipment mounting, etc.

If anyone needs to know, the thickness of the magnet portion is 13,5mm
