It should be in your owners manual back in the capacities and specifications section.
Most NH SCV's operate at up to 2500 psi ( relief setting ), and for instance.. the 5610/6610/7610 operate at 9gpm when the tractor is only using it's main pump, or if the aux pump is installed, then the flow is up to 18gpm...
Hard to say what your tc40 is.. it may be similar to the Nh 2120.
I have a few non ford references that put both thos machines in the 9gpm range... can't 'verify' that though...

Andy, the full system pressure of 2500 psi is available under essentially "no flow" conditions like operating a hydraulic cylinder. Since the maximum flow out of the pump is 9.8 gpm and .8 gpm is tapped off to run the PTO clutch/brake, then the maximum flow with no other hydraulics in use would be 9 gpm. However, that is maximum pump flow and not at the remotes. Any back-pressure or restriction will cause a decrease in flow. If you use 1/2" hoses and fittings, then you have to consider how long your hoses are. I think the realistic flow is probably 6-7 gpm. I've never measured the flow, but logic tells me that it will be much less than maximum pump flow.
