SC TC skimmer pinwheel identification

Question:

 

Hi


I wonder if you can let me know the differences between the DC1200 pump on the 2060 model and the DC1700 on the larger units.
 

 

Regards Alf



Answer:

 

Alf

The DC1200 model is a detuned version of the DC1700. This is necessary otherwise the skimmer would continually flood and you would use more energy than is necessary. The smaller pump uses a completely different pinwheel and is matched with a weaker set of windings and a consequent reduction in energy requirement to make it run.

The two different pinwheels are shown below and are different to the 110V versions
Cheers
