Oase Optimax - Filter pump

 

With the Optimax, Oase extends the existing Profiline range with unique, economical, gravitation filter pumps. The Optimax pumps have been developed to optimally meet the requirements placed on filtration pumps in these systems - particularly for use in Koi ponds and swimming ponds.

  • New hydraulic concept for high efficiency. Optimax pumps work at an extraordinary high level of energy efficiency, due to flow-optimised impellers and electronically controlled motors.

  • Graduated flow capacity - 10,000 to 18,000 litres can be circulated per hour depending on the model.

  • Integrated, intelligent dry-run protection "GSR" (Gravity-Self-Regulator)

  • Fully capable of over wintering, even if the pond completely freezes over.

  • Removable mounting base and pedestal.

  • Included adapter set for hose and pipe connection


Aussie's observations

Suitable for:  Gravity filters
What we liked: Everything. The features and attention to detail is superb. The cost to run is staggeringly low, this pump will pay for it's self in not time when compared to pumps of similar performance. 5 year warranty on everything including* the impeller.  *No other company offers such an impeller warranty to our knowledge
Less than ideal: While fantastic for gravity filters at ground level, the lack of flow at higher heads will make it unsuitable for some filters
Not suitable for: waterfalls or streams due to the low head

Oase pumps are without doubt the finest pumps available in Australia for a given project, the cost of these Germany made pumps may be a little higher, but worth every cent. The practical design along with quality and range of accessories is second to none.

Flow rates at different pumping heights - litres per hour

Model @ 0cm @ 50cm @1.0m @1.5m @2.0m Head / Shut Off**
10000 10000 8000 4700 - - 1.3m

20000 18000 15500 12300 8500 3200 2.2m
**Head / shut off - The higher the water is pumped, the less the flow until the maximum pumping height is reached. It is critical that this is understood, this height is where the water stops flowing.
