Three-phase operation provides smoother, more efficient motor performance and is preferred where continuous high-duty-cycle pumping is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIndustrial-Grade High-Volume Pumping for Demanding Sites\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree-phase power allows the Ext 12000 3-P motor to run at higher efficiency with less vibration and heat than a single-phase motor of equivalent output, extending bearing and seal life in continuous operation. Commercial water feature installations, large koi collections, and aquaculture operations that have access to three-phase power benefit significantly from the reduced operating cost and extended service life of three-phase motor designs at this output level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax Flow Rate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12,500 GPH (47,319 LPH)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax Head Height\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.4 m (21 ft)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1,100 W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMotor Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThree-phase (3-P) TEFC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMotor HP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\/4 HP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInlet\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e7.6 cm (3 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDischarge\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 cm (2 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInstallation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eExternal (non-submersible)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall the Ext 12000 3-P on a stable, level surface adjacent to the pond or water feature. Ensure the pump is primed before first start-up; connect the inlet plumbing to the pond or sump intake at a level that maintains a positive suction head. Connect the discharge to 5 cm (2 in) plumbing routed to the waterfall, filter, or distribution manifold. Electrically connect the motor to the three-phase supply through a suitable motor starter with thermal overload protection. The oil-free, fan-cooled TEFC motor requires no lubrication but should be inspected annually. Change the mechanical seal oil according to the service schedule in the pump manual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for commercial koi ponds, large professional water features, and aquaculture recirculation systems at sites with three-phase power supply requiring up to 12,500 GPH (47,000 LPH) at heads up to 6.4 m (21 ft).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aquascape","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52698412482879,"sku":"AQ-45051","price":4320.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8260\/9215\/files\/aquascape-external-pumps-default-title-aquascape-ext-12000-3-p-pond-pump-43287375085887.webp?v=1776379459","url":"https:\/\/pondsonline.ca\/products\/aquascape-ext-12000-3-p-pond-pump","provider":"Ponds Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
