Brian, Thanks for including our equipment in your project. It is a brand new offering for us. We designed it for emergency use to get people and their ponds/tanks out of a pinch when oxygen is low and 120 v ac power simply isn't available. I appreciate your showing the two different modes: full power and lower power. That is important because batteries fluctuate with charge and the aerator operation will follow that. The motor will need some cool down time after a few hours of run time and this will vary with climate and water temperature. The fuse is a 25 amp and will disconnect the circuit when the cable gets too warm or the amps are too high- like something blocking the propeller. This is good and avoids motor damage.
1812AF035 - 12V Aerator The 12V aerator is for remote locations, tank operation, off grid aquaculture, or in emergency situations. Each 1812AF unit includes the same float and hardware used on the ½-1HP AF units and a 35' power cord, complete with ON/OFF toggle switch and alligator clips for the battery connection. The retail price is $612.50
We were visiting about the power cable length Friday. While it is a lot shorter than we would normally offer, the low voltage and higher amperage limit the length that we can offer in that gauge of cable.
I am new the the forum and look forward to participating.
