Fasco AC pump

Hello all!

We have a 95 Silverton 41.
We noticed there is one ac pump and one strainer for the aft and salon ac units. From what I can see, it is a Fasco CPN 150-166-10 HP 1/8 that "Ts" off to the separate units.
The previous owner replaced the AC unit in the salon (16,000) but did nothing with the pump; now I get the HPF error. I have blown out the hose and cleaned the strainer and it worked for a few days and now the code again.
I cannot find what Fasco's GPH is pushing, so I am not sure if I need to go up to a higher GPH and also noted in other threads that you should not just jump to a 1000 GPH as that may be too much.

Any ideas on what the GPH is on the Fasco, should I move up to a better, stronger pump?

Thanks Everyone

Re: Fasco AC pump

Fasco is a Regal Beloit brand, that manufactures [in Australia & Thailand] electric motors, with an emphasis on HVAC applications.

No products listed, for “CPN 150-166-10 HP”, nor “CPN 150-166-10 HP 1/8”
https://emotorpro.com/pages/fasco-motors

Generally, for every 12,000 BTU's (1 Ton) you need about 3 gallons of seawater a minute, delivered to the A/C unit.
So, a 16,000 BTU unit would need about 4 gallons a minute, or ±240 gallons per hour.

I could not find it either and hard to read now. At first, it looked like CPN 150-1-66-10. I've attached a picture of it. I guess my issue is I don't know what I have so replacing it with something else would just be a guess.
