Features & Benefits:
The pump is designed for high flow rates and incorporates several features to ensure reliability and performance, with reviewers noting its quiet and powerful operation:
-
Neodymium Magnet: The pump utilizes a strong rare earth magnet, which provides more power compared to standard ferrite magnets.
-
Silicon Nitride Impeller Shaft and Bearings: These components are much more wear-resistant than the ceramics used in many other pumps, deterring calcium buildup and requiring less maintenance.
-
Digital Circuit Board: An integrated circuit board manages start-up, controls RPM, maintains a consistent flow rate, and automatically shuts down the pump if a problem is detected to prevent damage.
-
Quiet and Efficient Operation: Reviewers have been impressed by the quietness of the pump, with one user on Reef Central noting they could barely feel any vibration.
-
Durability: Backed by a warranty (e.g., a five-year warranty on the pump body/housing and one year on the impeller/rotor according to CoralVue) the pump is considered reliable
