Description

Magnetic water pumps. Magnetic driven. Sealess pumps for use on fresh or saltwater aquariums. Low heat exchange. Highly durable design. WMD pumps have American Made Motors. MD pumps have Japanese Made Motors. RLT pumps are for pressure applications. RLXT pumps are for circulation and wet/dry return.

Iwaki Walchem magnetic drive pumps will run longer, quieter and cooler than any traditional mag drive. Extraordinarily high efficiencies make WMD & MD the clear choice in almost every process, recirculation or transfer application.

Unique internal Cooling Circuit
Creates a positive, forced cooling path, lubricating bearing surfaces and actively purging gases & heat. Unique double bearing system allows cooling circuit liquid to continually "wash" front and rear radial bearings, extending bearing life.

Precision Tolerances
Pumps can be supplied with alumina ceramic or SiC spindles, bored, turned and highly polished. This precision machined spindle forms the center of the driven magnet. Substantially reduced hydraulic noise is a major feature of all WMD/MD impellers. Great pains are taken in the molding/finishing process to eliminate tangential misalignment.

Bearings/Thrust surfaces
High lubricity fluoropolymer bearings minimize mechanical losses typical of conventional mag drive pumps. High purity SiC radial bearings handle the most aggressive ultrapure chemistries. PTFE front thrust surface aids hydraulic balance and minimizes flashing. Large rear thrust surface guards against axial forces caused by cavitation or gas entrapment.

Drive magnet
Dynamically balanced barium ferrite drive magnets provide best magnet torque. Die cast magnet carrier creates a flywheel effect, which adds to the magnet safety factor.

Motor matching
Offering more standard motor/pump configurations than other manufacturers offer for tailored pump applications. Premium, high efficiency motors are used throughout the line. Totally enclosed, permanent split capacitor motors are compact, cool and economical. Tolerance to voltage variation without overheating and 50/60 Hz operation allow the product to be used in a worldwide market.

Excellent!

Very Quiet!! by SCOTT HASKINS

Experience Level: Intermediate

Posted on 7/29/2007 from PARKLAND, FL UNITED STATES

Comments: Tried the Mag Drive first for my 180 Gal tank and it was very noisey (couldn't sleep with the tank in the other room...tried insulating the cabinet...still loud). Then I tried the "QuietOne", that was even worse! I finally tried the Iwaki (Japanese Motor) and I can finally sleep at night. I am VERY impressed with the low noise...only a little hum. It shipped quickly. Since MarineDepot was effortless to buy from, I just ordered the AquaController III. (I'll let you know how it goes).
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Excellent!

Replace a Panworld by DAVID GREGG

Experience Level: Expert

Posted on 11/30/2007 from GRAHAM, NC UNITED STATES

Comments: This Iwaki pump has been purchased to replace a Panworld pump that I have run for a little more than a year. I am using this pump for a main system pump on a 210 gallon reef. My system dropped 4 degrees in three days after installing this new Iwaki pump. After two weeks it has run in and is even quieter than when new. The Panworld pump that I had saved me about $60.00 and cost me about $400.00 in lost livestock,diminished anemonies, and lost corals due to an overheated tank. Again I learn to buy the best the first time.
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
