That's the motor. I would think it's 1-2 rpm motor, i've got 4 or 5 of them i'm using for a similar project.

I called the guy up to ask about prices;

8 port $500 CND
4 port $275 CND
Revolution $39 CND

He said if your want to buy a 4 port and 4 Revolutions it would be $400CND

The company is based out of Toronto and the stuff is all made from solid PVC.

It's a neat concept.

I think its great that its a Canadian based company. Its defently something im going to be looking into.

When do we get to see it in action? So far, the website is lacking. Looks cool though!

As far as variable flow goes, I expect without some sort of randomizing device (ie. computer), the pattern would be fairly repetitive. Whether this matters or not I don't know. Borneman's recent writings indicate that "random" flow isn't necessary at all.

PVC or delring?

Tman1973 02-05-2004 07:42 PM

When I asked him I was told it's CNC'd from solid PVC.

Sorry that's all I can tell you.

technical info
 
Hi Guys

Thanx Brad for the invite.

figured I'd post here as there was a few questions to answer.

99% of the components are PVC, there is a driveshaft from delrin and a couple of thrust bearings from the poly family, all 100% reef safe.

The motor has already been oversized after listening to concerns from tank installers who's livelyhood depends on reliability, the price remained the same , a heavy duty 4 way is also in production to fill the needs of larger capacity pumps , up to and over 10,000gph.

There is no computer, simply a 1RPM motor, if you wish to put a timer on it too change the delays you can do quite easily.

Any other questions feel free to ask.

thanx guys

Paul
