BENEFITS INCLUDE

• SMART MAG

TM

 Motor Protection - 

Provides 

 by preventing motor burnout.

• Energy Efficient

 – Exceptionally low power consumption to high-head height / high-volume flow conversion.

• Threaded Inlet & Outlet

 - Suitable for submersible or external operation and can adapt to different fittings 

provided.

• Can Be Installed Vertical or Horizontal

 - Provides 

 for installation in many different applications.

• Open Vane Impeller Design

 – Handles large particles and resists clogging.

• Adjustable Flow Control 

- Meet the demands of your application and 

• PondMax Skimmer & Water Feature pumps are 

suitable for use in many different applications 
including skimmers, water features, aquatic systems 
and hydroponics. Your pump can be used in either 
submersible or external applications.

• Skimmer & Water Feature pumps are a magnetically 

driven pump, therefore they cannot suck from a water 
level that is below the inlet level when used externally. 

• Your pump has a single moving part (an impeller) 

enabling easy cleaning and maintenance.

• The models EV700 – EV3600 Pumps have SMART 

MAG

TM

 motor protection, which analyses the speed and 

torque of the motor. 

• SMART MAG

TM

 intelligent circuitry also provides a soft 

start for the pump on startup and helps to avoid any 
sudden jolting. The intelligent system will change the 
motor speed to 

 the flow of water in the 

given circumstances. 

• Also if the Impeller gets jammed or stops, the circuitry 

will sense the state and cut the power automatically 
for 3 seconds and then power up again. This 
procedure will repeat 3 times. If the rotor is still 
jammed, it will activate a prolonged low state, till the 
pump is turned off, and adequate maintenance is 
carried out. Thus 

 motor burnout, due to 

electrical heat, through lack of water flow through the 
motor.

• The motor and electrical components are totally 

encapsulated in epoxy resin, ensuring safe operation 
under water.

• The pump has a robust bearing and shaft design so no 

Oil/grease lubrication is required. 

• Skimmer & Water Feature pumps rely on water to 

cool and lubricate it. Therefore no harmful oil or 
grease lubrication is required.

• PondMAX Skimmer & Water Feature Pumps are 

continuous rated therefore are designed to operate 
24/7.

• An optional fountain kit can be purchased and fitted 

to the models EV700 – EV1 00 pumps. These models 
include an optional sponge pre-filter that assists in 
straining the partials in the water, to assist the 
fountain nozzles becoming blocked up with debris. 
See your retailer for options.
