about the SCWD Wavemaker | |
| After years of research and testing,
3iQ Ventures unveiled an industry changing wave making product for aquariums, ponds
and water gardens, called SCWD (Switching Current Water Director). SCWD ("squid")
provides giving alternating currents to saltwater and freshwater aquariums alike, as
well as ponds; and decorative alternating sprays to garden statuary. SCWD is a
revolutionary mechanical wavemaker, designed and manufactured in the United States by
31Q, to the highest standards of quality and reliability. This new and amazing device has been subjected to the rigors of consumer use and laboratory testing in excess of 53,000 hours - over 6 years! SCWD will provide years of reliable, convenient, and trouble-free service. It is, in fact, the best, most coft effective mechanical current generating device available on the market today. |
| | Question: How does the SCWD work?
Answer:
The SCWD takes water from your existing pump or filter and alternately switches water
between the two outlet ports at varying intervals.
Question: How well
does the SCWD hold up to hard water and heavy concentrations of
calcium?
Answer: The SCWD has been field-tested for over 53000 hours of
continuous use in a sustained reef environment where water conditions were at or above
calcium levels of 400ppm. In addition, SCWD has been subjected to qualification
testing, which included use of hard water and elevated calcium levels (1000ppm) that
were sustained for six weeks. After one month the power head running the SCWD stopped
working, and required cleaning. Two weeks later the same power head failed again, but
SCWD continued to operate without incident.
Question:What is the
switching frequency/duration between the two outlet ports?
Answer: The
SCWD’s switching response is dependant on the amount of water volume running through
the device. The more water, the faster the switching response.
Question:
Can the SCWD be used inside the aquarium?
Answer: Absolutely. The SCWD
can be mounted either internally or externally, depending on the desired results. The
unit housing is completely sealed less the inlet and two outlets, so it may be hung
outside the aquarium. The product materials are completely safe in both fresh and
salt-water environments making it safe for installing inside the tank.
Question: Will SCWD operate mounted upside down?
Answer:Yes. SCWD can run on any axis with no drop in
performance.
Question: How does small particulate and debris affect the
SCWD?
Answer: Although not overly sensitive to the normal particulate
and debris found in reef tank environments, it is strongly recommended that the water
flowing through the SCWD is pre-filtered. |
