Product Description
AquaMax Eco Expert 20000 / 12 V is a filter and water course pump with an electronically adjustable flow rate. The
pump is suitable for dry or submersed installation. It is suitable for use in swimming ponds.
Easy Garden Control System (EGC)
This product can communicate with the Easy Garden Control-System (EGC). EGC allows convenient control in the
garden and pond via smartphone or tablet, and ensures maximum convenience and reliability. Information about EGC
and the possibilities it offers can be found at www.oase-livingwater.com/egc-start.
Seasonal Flow Control (SFC)
With the SFC function activated, the pump automatically optimises and reduces the amount of water and the delivery
head by up to 50%. Thanks to the SFC function the pump adapts to the individual pond ecology throughout the year
and supports the pond biology through temperature-dependent circulation (winter mode, transition mode and summer
mode).
The SFC function is switched on and off at the pump. The SFC function reduces the power consumption of the pump;
without SFC, the pump permanently operates at maximum throughput. The seasonal flow control does not function
when the pump is installed on land (dry installation). If a skimmer, satellite filter or Oase InScenio control unit is used,
we recommend deactivating the SFC depending on the unit.
