TUNZE® Turbelle® masterstream ... it streams in the shadows
The Turbelle® masterstream pumps are intended for the high-performance propeller pump market segment, and primarily predetermined for an implementation in experience zoos, research institutes, rehabilitation clinics and fish or algae farms. We also offer a version for aquarists who operate large aquariums and require a strong as well as wide flow rate for their reef tanks. Turbelle® masterstream pumps are designed to provide a maximum degree of efficiency, combined with a low energy consumption. Thanks to the extra-low safety voltage of the electronic TUNZE® PM motor, the pumps will operate at a pleasant noise level even at peak performance, while consuming significantly less power for the same output compared to conventional water pumps.
Turbelle® masterstream
Controllable performance
The Turbelle® masterstream pumps are electronically speed-controlled by Turbelle® Controller / Multicontroller / SmartController 7000. They can be used ideally for water circulation, wave action or wave-and-tide simulations.
100% corrosion-resistant
All parts of the pumps are made of ASA, POM and adjuvant enriched PA6.6. PU coated cable; the motor axle is made of titanium alloy; the motor and the electronics are cast in polyurethane (PU) resin.
No external control
The pump control is integrated completely in the motor block ensuring a low-maintenance operation with high efficiency and ideal water cooling. All Turbelle® masterstream pumps only require one external power supply unit or safety connector with a corresponding direct-current source (battery, solar cell, et cetera).
Turbelle® masterstream
Eco-energetic
A small sample calculation using Turbelle® masterstream 6580 (80 m³/h (21 USgal./h) – 420 W) reveals that energy efficient water movement results in enormous cost effectiveness:
Tank volume: 60 m³ (15.9 USgal.), flow selection by centrifugal pump (32 m³/h (8.5 USgal./h) – 2,200 W). At an annual operating time of 8,760 hours and a kilowatt price of € 0.35 / £ 0.30 / US$ 0.36 this results in a cost saving of about € 5,382 / 4,700 £ / US$ 5,610 per annum.
