How much flow can the hygger pump deliver, and how is it adjusted?

Can this water pump be submerged or installed outside the water?

The hygger pump can operate submerged or externally, and its fittings connect to 1in (2.54cm) or 3/4in (1.91cm) pipes. The pump measures 6.2 x 3.1 x 5in (15.7 x 7.9 x 12.7cm). The controller is not waterproof and must be kept indoors.

• Includes screws, O-rings, pipe-connection fittings, and two removable intake screens.
• A 10ft (3.0m) extension cord is needed for the controller and pump.

What water levels and water types can it handle?

The hygger pump automatically shuts off when it senses no water or a water level that is too low. One intake screen is for normal water levels; the other is for low water levels higher than 0.8in (2.03cm). Its wear-resistant ceramic shaft and magnetic drive are designed for long service life, and the pump has no copper element, so it can be used in fresh or salt water.

• Choose the intake screen that matches the water level.
• Use in aquariums, ponds, fountains, sumps, or hydroponic systems.

The hygger water pump suits aquarium keepers and other users who need adjustable flow, submersible or external placement, and compatibility with fresh or salt water. Its 71 flow settings, included intake-screen options, and pipe fittings support a range of return-pump layouts.
