The 5.3VFX floating pond fountain delivers superior aerating performance, coupled with a beautiful V-shaped pattern display up to 9 ft in height. The 5.3VFX is available in 120v and 240v and both single and three phase packages.
All units come with an easy-to-use timer control panel which allows the large pond fountain to be managed from shore, 3 mooring lines, and a 1-piece tapered float which allows for easy installation and operation as well as an improved look. Optional lighting packages are available to help your fountain shine brighter and better at night.
It has an environmentally friendly design with a hard-face internal mechanical seal for protection against leaks. It also has a long-life top and bottom ball bearings. It is flood oil lubricated for an excellent heat dissipation.
It has a superior dependability in salt-water or other corrosive environments such as chlorine. All external metal motor, float, and hardware components are of stainless steel composition and protected by a sacrificial zinc anode.
Operation
Submersed motor with top intake draws water into the fountain housing and pushes the water past the deflector disc and into the air
ndividual water droplets absorb oxygen from the atmosphere and return to the body of water transferring oxygen from the air and into the water
Moving water mixes and agitates the water spreading oxygenated water throughout the body of water
Single propeller and deflector disc designs allows for greater water flow with a lower likelihood of clogging
Thermoplastic bottom screen helps protect the motor from clogging
