Paddlewheel Aerators, For Aquaculture & Waste Water
Excellent oxygen transfer and circulation.
Asian-made paddlewheels have become the most popular, even in North America, because of their low cost.
But be careful, they are not all the same. Gear reducers, motors, bearings, paddles and seals are all problematic components. The availability of repair parts, warranty replacements and efficiency ratings must be considered over low price!
Note: Occasionally a small amount of oil may leak from gearbox during transit. Check oil level before operation and if necessary top off with standard mineral gear oil (SAE 90).
Excellent oxygen transfer and circulation.
These high-quality paddlewheels feature high-efficiency 60 HZ motors and high-quality gear reducers to ensure a long service life. The frame, drive shaft and hardware are 304 stainless steel—all compatible with salt water. Power cable not included. Paddlewheel aerators are an excellent choice for medium and large ponds where movement of oxygenated water away from the aerator is most important.
The entire unit, including gear reducer and motor, has a one-year warranty (warranty requires the gear oil be changed after the first 3 months - use SAE 90 oil). Ships motor freight only.
Note: Occasionally a small amount of oil may leak from gearbox during transit. Check oil level before operation and if necessary top off with standard mineral gear oil (SAE 90).More Info
