Product Description
These fountains feature a propeller-driven pump which pumps a large volume of water!
PROPELLER PUMP UNITS Air-O-Lator uses Franklin® Electric 600M submersible motors, which are water-cooled and water-lubricated. A scientifically engineered foul resistant propeller rotates at a shaft speed of 3450 rpm.
PUMPAGE, AERATION AND MIX The Carnival propeller pump units move a large volume of water through a converging nozzle, causing shearing to occur, breaking the water into micro droplets and exposing more water surface area to the atmosphere. As the water returns to the parent body, each droplet drags an additional amount of water with it, causing an “induced flow” effect, which in essence increases the surface area of the lake. All of these factors result in excellent aeration. Another event that occurs simultaneously is the cooling process. The cooler water tends to sink, since it is heavier and denser, displacing warmer water that is trying to rise.
- No seals or bearings to maintain.
- High speed, foul resistant propellers or impellers, provide high shear water spraying action. No lazy sprays, bubbles or slow boil of water.
- One Piece “square” flotation for stability to minimize any oscillation as can occur with round floats.
- Water tight, removable, 100 feet power cable is standard. Additional cable lengths are available in 50’ increments.
- ETL listed (ANSI/UL508) control panel with time clock (adjustable in 15 minute increments), Equipment Leakage Circuit Interrupter ELCI*
- Three year warranty
