Delivery
•
NanoProp
adjustable current pump, 12 V DC, with computer-optimized propeller.
•
Vacuum sucker
for safe fixing of the pump in the aquarium, not dependent on the thickness of
the glass. With ball joint for adjusting the flow direction.
•
Electronic safety transformer,
100 – 240 V, 18 watts max., adjustable from 6 – 12 V.
2. Features
The
NanoProp 5000
magnetically coupled current pump is very quiet in operation. It has a fully
encapsulated synchronous motor. The polished ceramic shaft and bearing is practically wear-
resistant, ensuring a long operating life. An integrated thermal overheat protection device prevents
damage to the windings should the impeller rotation be impeded. The pumps can easily be taken
apart for cleaning. All materials are salt-water resistant.
The pump is operated with 12 V safety voltage, the transformer is included. The propeller of the
rotor is designed as a 3 blade model. This design runs more smoothly than the 2 blade propellers.
The pump is adjustable. The transformer can be switched between 6 and 12 V to adjust the flow
rate. A leverage sucker was developed to fix the pump at the glass panel with a special softener-
free sucker plate. The leverage creates a vacuum and fixes the sucker safely.
The pump is only designed for operation under water and pressure-free.

Adjustment at the transformer:
The flow rate can be adjusted at the transformer to the level 6 / 9 / 12 V. When operating at 6 V,
we recommend firstly to select 9 or 12 V and then re-set to 6 V.
The pump is open at the front. Therefore, it should never be started uncontrolled, e. g.
via a time switch.
Animals could be in the sucking in basket and they could be injured or killed by
the starting propeller.
