BENEFITS
AQUAPRO Filtration & Waterfall Pumps are suitable for use in many different applications including waterfalls
and Biological Filter systems. Your pump has a single moving part (an impeller set) enabling easy cleaning and
maintenance.
• AQUAPRO Filtration & Waterfall Pumps are suitable for use in many different applications including waterfalls
and Biological Filter systems. Your pump has a single moving part (an impeller set) enabling easy cleaning and
maintenance.
• The Pumps have intelligent circuitry that analyses the speed and torque of the motor. It will increase and decrease
the energy usage to maximise efficiency. The soft start nature of the system helps to avoid sudden pressure surges
causing pipes to blow off. The intelligent system will change the motor speed to maximise the flow of water in
the given circumstances. If the Impellor gets jammed or stops, the circuitry will sense the state and cut the power
automatically. 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 minimising 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.
• AQUAPRO Filtration & Waterfall Pumps are continuous rated therefore are designed to be heavy-duty and to operate
24/7.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Please read the operating instructions and familiarize yourself with the equipment before placing it in
service. Correct and safe use of the system requires strict compliance with the safety instructions.
For safety reasons persons less than 16 years of age or people that are not familiar with these
instructions should not use this equipment.
• Any damage to the equipment or unmerited operation
will bring dangers to the surrounding precincts. So if
there is any damage of the equipment, it must not to
be used. The equipment should be placed out of reach
of children.
• For your own safety, disconnect from the power supply
before any maintenance of any equipment is attempted
on the tank or water body. Always unplug the pump
from the power supply when not in use
• Never pull the cable to disconnect the plug from the
power supply - Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.
If required, have a qualified electrician install a
weatherproof power supply point near to the pond
or water-feature (within the cable length of the
appliance).
• Be sure the equipment is submerged completely in the
water. The depth should not be greater than 2m.
• Do not operate the pump if the appliance or any
components of the system, such as the power cable,
have been damaged. Check appliance for defects
regularly.
• Always use a properly grounded power supply that is
connected to an RCD with a rated residual operating
current not exceeding 30mA. As per AS/NZS
3350.2.41:1997

FILTRATION & WATERFALL PUMP
• To avoid an electric shock, do not attach the plug to the
power supply socket with wet hands. On installation,
the drip loop method should be used to prevent water
from traveling down the cable and onto the plug or
power supply. If the plug does get wet, do not unplug
the cable. Immediately disconnect the circuit breaker
that supplies power to the power supply point. Then
unplug and examine the plug, and power supply point,
for presence of water. If the power point has become
wet, you should consult an electrician before using the
power point again.
• Do not cut the cable as this will result in voiding your
warranty.
• Do not install or store the appliance where it will be
exposed to extreme hot or cold temperatures. Do not
use in water above 35°C.
• Care should be taken to arrange the power cable so
that it cannot be accidentally tripped over or pulled.
• Do not attempt to repair the electrical appliance
yourself. Return to an authorized service centre
or place of purchase if a fault occurs, (regular
maintenance is not considered repair and is required
by user).
