Delivering up to 4000 litres per hour with a maximum head height of 4 metres, it is ideal for sump return applications, filtration systems, media reactors and general aquarium circulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe included controller provides 20 adjustable speed settings, allowing the flow rate to be matched to your aquarium's plumbing, overflow and filtration requirements. This makes it easy to reduce excessive turbulence, balance a sump system and operate the pump at the most efficient output for your setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nMaximum flow rate: 4000L\/h\u003cbr\u003e\nMaximum head height: 4m\u003cbr\u003e\nSafe 24V DC operation\u003cbr\u003e\nPower consumption: 10W to 50W\u003cbr\u003e\n20 adjustable speed settings\u003cbr\u003e\nUltra-quiet and energy-efficient operation\u003cbr\u003e\nDurable high-performance ceramic bearings\u003cbr\u003e\nCompact design for sump installation\u003cbr\u003e\nSuitable for marine and freshwater aquariums\u003cbr\u003e\nDesigned for continuous aquarium use\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nModel: Tornado 4000\u003cbr\u003e\nVoltage: DC 24V\u003cbr\u003e\nMaximum flow: 4000L\/h\u003cbr\u003e\nMaximum head: 4m\u003cbr\u003e\nMinimum power consumption: 10W\u003cbr\u003e\nMaximum power consumption: 50W\u003cbr\u003e\nController: 20-speed variable control\u003cbr\u003e\nInlet and outlet sizes: 25mm and 32mm\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 176.1 x 91 x 159.6mm\u003cbr\u003e\nInstallation: Submersible\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable Flow Control\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 20-speed controller allows precise adjustment of the pump output without relying only on a restrictive valve.

Actual water flow will decrease as vertical lift and plumbing resistance increase. Pipe diameter, pipe length, elbows, valves and connected equipment can all reduce the flow delivered to the aquarium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBefore choosing the Tornado 4000, measure the vertical distance from the sump water level to the return outlet and consider the resistance created by your plumbing. The maximum rated head height is 4 metres, but the pump should not be selected to operate continuously at its absolute limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the maximum flow rate?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Mantis Tornado 4000 has a maximum rated flow of 4000 litres per hour under minimal head pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the maximum head height?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe maximum rated head height is 4 metres.
