Now we have it.Bracketless DesignThe VorTech minimizes the intrusion of equipment in your tank by using a patent pending bracketless design; this allows the motor to be on the outside of the aquarium and uses a magnetic field to transfer torque through the aquarium wall to the propeller located in the water.No Heat Transfer - No Heat added to the waterDue to the use of high intensity metal halide lighting, inefficient return pumps, and powerheads, many aquarists must resort to expensive equipment or loud fans to keep their water temperature stable. The VorTech induces very little heat into the aquarium because of EcoTech Marine`s patent pending magnetically coupled design which transfers motion through the glass, but not heat.ControllableThe VorTech uses the most advanced motor technology available, allowing the water flow rate to be completely controllable. Operating on tanks between 20 and 500 gallons and producing between 100 and 3,000 gallons per hour of flow, the VorTech is the most versatile flow product on the market. The VorTech is designed to operate on gap thickness from 1/8" to 3/4".No AC Current - No AC electricity in the aquarium waterThe VorTech is safer than existing products because there is no dangerous AC electricity brought into the aquarium. This keeps your fish and corals happy and healthy, while minimizing your own risk of electrocution.Run-Safe DesignThe VorTech is designed to be the safest and most reliable product on the market: Over-current protection - if the propeller becomes jammed, our microcontroller will sense the problem and shut the motor down to prevent overheating.Energy SavingsThe VorTech moves more water within your aquarium than conventional powerheads, plus you save money by not having to invest in and run a costly chiller.Low MaintenanceThe VorTech is virtually maintenance free. Classic powerheads use an impeller attached to a magnet assembly which needs to be cleaned every few months. The VorTech need only be serviced minimally to replace a simple and economical bearing.Battery Backup AccessoryAn IceCap, Inc. battery backup powers the EcoTech Marine VorTech Propeller Pump for up to 24-hours during a power outage emergency.Wireless Wave DriverThe Wireless Wave Driver allows effectively infinite wave control possibilities by wirelessly linking multiple VorTech pumps together. The pumps communicate with one-another through EcoTech Marine’s proprietary Triton Protocol. Each pump must have Wireless Wave Driver in order to take full advantage of the controllability of this device.Wave ModesReef Crest Random Mode- Set the pump to the maximum desired speed and the VorTech Wireless Wave Driver automatically randomizes the flow throughout your tank. The pump will rapidly vary from one speed to another to simulate the high-energy conditions of a natural reef crest environment.Lagoon Random Mode- Set the pump to the maximum desired speed and the VorTech Wireless Wave Driver automatically randomizes the flow throughout your tank. The pump will vary slowly from one speed to another to simulate a calmer, lagoon reef environment.Pulse Mode-When entered into pulse mode, you will be able to pulse your VorTech pump at various frequencies to create standing surface and sub-surface waves within your aquarium. You can adjust both the maximum pulse speed and frequency. The generation of surface waves within your aquarium is possible through Pulse Mode.Sync Mode- When entered into Sync Mode, your VorTech will automatically sync with the other pumps in your aquarium. Sync Mode can be used to sync in either random modes or in pulse mode. When syncing two pumps in Pulse Mode, the pumps can be placed on the same side of the aquarium to create large standing waves in your tank.Anti-Sync Mode- When entered into Anti-Sync Mode, pumps will pulse in an inverse timing cycle to a master pump. Every time the master pump is at the maximum speed of cycle, the pumps entered into Anti-Sync Mode will be at the minimum speed of the cycle, and vice-versa. Place these pumps on the opposite side of the tank as a master pump to create tidal currents within your aquarium.Feed ModeWith the touch of a button, the VorTech enters into feed mode and all pumps shut down for 10 minutes to allow you to feed your aquarium.Battery Backup ModeThe Wireless Wave Driver can also be used with the battery backup accessory.The Ecotech Marine Vortech Battery Backup is for any serious aquarium hobbyist that owns or plans to own an EcoTech Marine VorTech pump. By adding IceCap`s Battery Backup you are insulated from power interruptions for up to 30 hours. In 4 - 10 hours of no flow, an aquarium with all its fish and corals begins to die. Buy time, it`s rarely for sale.Product Features: Two VorTech Propeller Pump with Wireless Wave Drivers VorTech Battery Backup Reef Tank Insurance in an aluminum housing.
