    What is the head?

    Troy – what you should look at, is what the pump deliver at the head that you require. No good buying something that will not be powerful enough to lift the amount of water per hour to the head that you require.

    The liter per hour rating of all pumps refer to the volume the pump should be able to deliver during a hour without any pipe work connected to the pump.

    ok ,got hypathermia, but it doest not say any thing besides a warning that it might eat your fingers during cleanup ,cant find the box either
    what i can remember is it is a 50W made by KAUFFMAN or KUAFFERMAN
    something like that

    its quite an unknown pump but compared to my pedrollo 2KW italian pump it is a real competitor

    dude that thing got a price tag .being the good friends that me and my LFS owner are ,he told me the best pump available was this pedrolo [since the best aquarium stuff is made in itally ] i believed him, as reef octapus[marine stuff] equipment is hell of a expensive R7000++ brand which is excelent and has italian pumps built into it .
    its not a sumbmersible pump ,but one that sits out the pond ,

    i found the kaufmann box it comews with
    50W
    220V/50Hz
    MAX PUMP HEIGHT:2.5M
    MAX FLOW:2100 l/h

    IT COMES WITH 10 METERS OR THICK CABLING,PUMP SUCTION CUPS,AND .....CANT EXPLAIN ....TAKING PICTURE...
