I believe they will control the DC pumps as well, there are youtube videos of similar DIY modules controlling DC pumps.
I would suggest oversizing and running them at less than full power. |
That's always been the plan...
Its easier to run in the "green" than it is to constantly ride the "yellow stripe"!
That's why everything I design / work on is a complete overkill!
Its not hard to put in a bit extra and have 4 channels capable of 250W in the design and set it up as such that you may never need it.
And believe it or not 4 drives isnt much when you look at 1 Main Circulation pump, 1 Skimmer pump and 2 closed loop / wavemakers.
In regards to power supplies...
Sounds like they are pushing them right to the ragged edge. RMS figures are always a lot more different than the PEAK figures.
24V 400W off the shelf industrial supply maybe better suited then the "bricks" the pumps ship with as well as reduce clutter overall when all your pumps are controlled from one unit!
