OASE Aquamax Eco Expert 6800
OAS-57875
High-Efficiency Flow Control: AquaMax Eco Expert 6800
The AquaMax Eco Expert 6800 from Oase is a professional-grade brushless DC pump designed for those who require high-volume water delivery without the high energy costs. Perfectly balanced for demanding filtration systems and medium-to-large waterfalls, this next-generation pump offers the power of a commercial unit with the precision and quiet operation of advanced German engineering.
Advanced Technology for Modern Ponds
At the heart of the AquaMax Eco Expert is a robust brushless motor that eliminates the common pitfalls of traditional direct-drive pumps. This design allows for a versatile installation—either fully submersed or in-line for dry applications—and is compatible with a wide range of water environments, including saltwater and chlorinated systems.
- Smart Protection & Safety: Equipped with Environmental Function Control (EFC), the pump automatically shuts off if it detects run-dry conditions, preventing motor burnout. An integrated grounding plate provides an extra layer of safety against stray electrical currents in the water.
- Extreme Weather Durability: Patented frost protection ensures the pump remains safe from freeze damage in temperatures as low as -4°F, providing peace of mind for year-round pond management.
- Seasonal Flow Control (SFC): This intelligent feature monitors water temperature to adjust flow and head height automatically. During cooler seasons, the SFC mode can reduce energy consumption by up to 50% as biological demand decreases.
- Digital Integration: The 6800 is fully compatible with the OASE Control App when connected to a Garden Cloud Controller, allowing you to monitor performance and adjust flow rates remotely from your smartphone.
Maintenance and Solids Handling
The pump is encased in a robust stainless steel intake screen designed to handle debris up to 7/16" (0.437") without clogging. Unlike standard pumps, the AquaMax Eco Expert does not require a minimum head height for operation, making it immune to the suction cavitation that frequently damages lesser pumps in shallow or high-flow applications.
