The PondMAX PS1700 is for solar-powered circulation and fountains in clean freshwater ponds, bird baths and water features. Its maximum flow is 1,700L/h and its separate maximum head is 2.6m in full sunlight. A fountain kit and one solar panel are included.
Output depends on sunlight reaching the panel: cloud, shade and panel angle can reduce flow or stop the pump. Maximum flow and maximum head are separate limits measured in full sunlight. Keep the pump submerged and the panels in direct sun.
Low-water cut-out stops this pump if water falls below its sensors. Optional accessory (not included): PondMAX backup battery box, code 02PS005. A compatible battery must also be purchased separately.
Flow is 1,190L/h at 1m head in full sun. Actual installed flow also depends on the pipe length, diameter, bends and fittings.
Maintain at least half the maximum flow through the pump for motor cooling.
Three-year manufacturer warranty, subject to Aquatec Equipment terms. Retain proof of purchase; consumable impeller parts are excluded.
