Installation Instructions:
Every user’s tank is unique, so the wavemaker should be installed based on
your tank’s style and your requirements.
Ideally, the wavemaker should be placed opposite a flat glass surface
(without a overflow or any irregular glass) in order to gain the greatest
effect of reflecting waves. This is usually best accomplished by positioning
the wavemaker on a side wall pointing to the opposite side wall
(rectangular tank).
When the WP- 40 wavemaker is running at full power, it has a flow rate of
13,000 litres/hour (8,000 litres/hour for WP-25), so please avoid placing
the wavemaker too low which will causing a vortex on your sand
bed,
disturbing the sand, and also avoid placing too high as this will cause air to
be sucked in - we recommend a depth of at least 15cm for the wavemaker.
•
Remove the magnet from the pump to install the pump in the
aquarium in the desired location. Place the rubber suction cup
suction cylinder onto the inside wall of the aquarium. Then position
the rear magnet plate (with attached rubber damper) to the outer wall
of the aquarium. Please take care when positioning the magnet as
the magnets are very strong and could trap your fingers.
•
Remove the backing on one side of the double-sided adhesive paper
and stick to the rear of the controller in the middle. Remove the other
side of the double-sided adhesive protective paper and affix the
controller in a suitable location.
•
BEFORE ATTACHING THE MAINS CABLE, attach the 3-pin
waterproof connector from the pump to the controller. If required,
gently insert the light sensor into the small socket on the left of the
controller. Connect AC/DC power adapter to controller. See images
