Feature
Controls water flow rate - crank it up for a dramatic display, down to a gentle flow to reduce energy costsOptimize filtration performance - increase flow during peak algae season
Match your mood - crank it up for a pond side party or down for gentle flowing water
Eliminates the need for energy wasting ball and gate valves
15 AMP Peak Capacity, works with pumps to 8,000gph
Description
Variable Speed Controller for Koi Ponds, Water Gardens and Waterfalls allow you to - Optimize filtration performance and minimize energy use. Increase flow rate when algae growth peaks; reduce flow at nighttime or in cooler temperatures, Increase or decrease waterfall flow and splashing sounds to match your mood; cranked up for a lively pond-side party or gentle flowing water and soft sounds for quiet, reflective times, Regulate water flow through UV clarifiers, fountains, bubbling boulders, etc. Save energy by eliminating energy-wasting ball & gate valves that reduce water flow but don't reduce pump speed or energy usage. Note - Speed controller approved for use on Anjon Mfg Flood and Monsoon series pumps, Patriot PK, MD, FK series pumps. Do not use with unapproved pumps as they may be incompatibale with this device and they may fail.
