Hi Ka
from facet's website, yours is:

Facet Cube Style 12 Volt Fuel Pump, 3 to 4.5 max psi
Maximum fuel delivery 30 gallons per hour at free-flow. Maximum pressure 3 to 4.5 psi. Typical flow 15 gph at 2 psi.

I agree a regulator is a good idea for the larger pumps.
Regards
Andrew

Just as a matter of interest, my fuel pump started to leek. I disassembled it to find if a seal was leaking. As it happened, this 'solid state' pump, does has a moving part. When you get it to bits, there is a brass slide that moves the fuel through valves, this brass sleeve had worn out on one edge, allowing a by-pass of fuel, and the leak. This has taken around 8 years.
I have replaced it with a new one, the same.
