Direct current\u003cspan class=\"highlightedSearchTerm\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003epump\u003c\/span\u003es have several key advantages over traditional AC\u003cspan class=\"highlightedSearchTerm\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003epump\u003c\/span\u003es. Most notably, you can control the rotational speed of the motor, thus electronically control air and water flow rates into the skimmer.Now the user can have the skimmer process more or less water just by the push of a button!!!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eREFINED CONTROL\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn addition to allowing the pump to run at 5 different speeds, the new VarioS Controller takes the pump to a new level featuring:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA float switch connection, which allows you to connect a float switch (included in the box) to the controller. This is an added security feature that allows you to shut off the skimmer pump when your waste collector is full or shut off your water pump when your sump water has reached a high or low level. In all, you don’t need another module or controller to add a float switch to your system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTwo different pause\/feed modes that will shut off the pump for either 15 or 60 minute intervals. These come handy when you are feeding the tank or conducting regular maintenance such as a water change.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAnd the best feature of the VarioS controller is… a 0-10v input which will allow a 3rd party controller such as Neptune System’s APEX or Reef Angel to take over the pump and tell it what to do. In this mode, the new VarioS controller becomes an interface between the system controller and the pump allowing you to create intricate programs using your system controller native language. This is unprecedented controllability on a skimmer or water pump. In essence, you can use your system controller as your DC pump controller!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe VarioS\u003cspan class=\"highlightedSearchTerm\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003epump\u003c\/span\u003efeatures a true slow startup where the pump slowly ramps up from zero RPM to the full preset speed over a period of approximately 10 seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe\u003cspan class=\"highlightedSearchTerm\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003epump\u003c\/span\u003eand controller are connected via a waterproof 3-conductor union.
