AquascapePRO EXT 18000-3P External Pond Pump (MPN 45052)

The EXT 18000-3P Pond Pump is a non-submersible pump designed for water feature applications that require high flow and high efficiency. It features a 3-phase motor and can be used with a variable frequency drive (VFD), which allows for control of the pump's water flow rate. The VFD can be programmed to adjust the pump's speed during specific hours of the day, helping to conserve electricity or achieve a higher flow rate when desired. Additionally, the VFD can gradually increase the pump's speed to reduce stress on the plumbing fittings during startup. The motor has a junction box that allows for customization of the electric voltage (115V or 230V) on site. Please note that the power cord is not included. To simplify the plumbing installation, Aquascape offers the EXT Pump Plumbing Kit (#48027), which can be purchased separately.
