About this item
This new product from Jebao allows for you to control 2 RW, DC or WP series pumps using the 0-10v output from an aquarium controller. The default connector will hook up to an Apex, however any controller with a 0-10v output will work, you simply need an ethernet cable to connect to the adapter. Each pump can be controlled independently, and you can use the power supply already included with the pump to power the adapter. Each adapter includes a 6 month US warranty.

Just a little info about the Jabeo being controlled with a controller. Getting excited I have a little more fire power as to why getting one would be a great thing. ]]> Fri, 09 Jan 2015 14:32:32 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=74326&PID=581188&title=vortech-mp40wes#581188 <![CDATA[vortech mp40wes : I&#039;ve seen alot on reef2reef...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=74326&PID=581187&title=vortech-mp40wes#581187 Author: kody72

So if a brand new MP40 is $300 now, that means we should see some used ones for $200-ish.  That is an amazing price for that pump. I'm kind of annoyed I paid $465 for mine lol ]]> Fri, 09 Jan 2015 10:31:44 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=74326&PID=581164&title=vortech-mp40wes#581164 <![CDATA[vortech mp40wes : Molli, Will start with one and...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=74326&PID=581163&title=vortech-mp40wes#581163 Author: relethg

Molli,
 Will start with one and see how it does. Concerned with dead spots and the ability to make waves with only one on one wall. Wanted to run two in a non sync mode to have a tidal wave effect.
What are you running and in what size tank/s? Are you running any programmed effects?

The MP40 is never run over 40% but the tank takes that no problem and would not want less flow than I am getting now.

Yes I do.  Way too much.  You can always purchase another pump if you think you don't have enough flow with only one.

Lets do it together. I want to put two Jebaos in my 45. I am using a MP40 in there now (it is 1 of 2 for the 210g) and it is too much. I want to put two smaller Jebaos in it and control it with the apex. I will go first and then when you are ready will help you do it. I bet Kazie will give us pointers and there is a ton of info on the web on this setup.

I'd suggest you purchase one first and see how it works for you.  I'm not sure you could even turn two down low enough for a 45 gallon tank to not have too much flow.  That would be way too much flow.  I have two in a 4 foot long tank and they are turned way down with still quite a wave.

Jebao has an adapter for the apex. You can control their dc, wp and rw pumps.

When you say easy ;) are you referring to you and your skill set or an average person lacking in this type change. Is this something if I were to get an apex you could help me do or do you have any fee for doing such things. ]]> Fri, 09 Jan 2015 09:45:27 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=74326&PID=581154&title=vortech-mp40wes#581154
