1. 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, at the latest
after one day warm-up time. 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 in shipment. The
propeller of the rotor is designed as a 3 wing model. This design runs more smooth than the 2 wing
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 pumps are designed for operation under water and pressure-free.

Adjustment at the transformer:
The pumping quantity can be adjusted at the transformer to the level 6 / 9 / 12 V. When operating
with 6 V, we recommend to start the pump at 9 or 12 V and then re-set to 6 V so that it will start
reliably.
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.
