new: poweradjust USB for Laing® pumps

Friday, September 1st 2006, 7:36pm

In the middle of septemer the new USB controller poweradjust for Laing pumps will be available. With the help of this smart unit you are able to control ypur Laing pump or other stuff with a max. power of 30W. The controller uses a programmable DC voltage (no PWM).

For the Laing pump it will offer you the following features:

- parameterizable start burst
- measurement of the maximum speed
- parameterizable deaeration-program
- adjustable voltage
- adjustable rotation value
- passing the tachosignal to the mainboard or
- production of a "ok signal" in the controller
- speed monitor with renewed burst if the pump stops

Besides all these features you are able to configure the controlling rules including a max. and min. rotation speed which is important for other pumps.

The controller has programmable jumpers which can be used with presets.

Little bonus: you can connect a flow meter to the controller.

The poweradjust controller will be available as standard and as LT version. Price starts at 29.90 Euro including cable and aquasuite.

The standard version (30W) is air-cooled while it is possible to watercool it with a voltage regulator block for Abit boards (see third picture).

Why not?!
Sometimes it's hard to understand your decisions.
I for once and many others out there that have aquaeros and DDC would see this new controller as a good option when combined.

In the first instance, AC will support their own products. A communication option would also made the controller more expensive and the aquaero would need an adjusted firmware. The memory of this little device isn't infinite. I guess they want to save it for their own products.

Using Laing with aquaero is like president Bush would share a bed with Anastacia ;D

Shoggy - you are right :)

That's the thing. The Laing DDC pumps are not an unique AC product and the controller is made for all users of Laing pumps - which is mainly not the group of AC users.
So USB was a better choice in our opinion. Our own products will be supported by aquabus (and USB).

Certainly there are less hardware controlling options through the aquaero in this case. But you have the possibility to use the RPM detection of the mainboard for error detection.

Is EHEIM a AC "own product"? You just tweaked the pump electronics - hence the controller, the pump is an ordinary Eheim 300 pump, no more no less.

As for politics, i leave it to the people concerned.

The thing is: the aquastream is a collaboration of AC and Eheim with a view to efficiency and low noise level. This pump matches the philosophy of AC.

The Laing on the other hand is completly build by another company and it does not fit in the philosophy because this pump is quite loud.

No, the Aquastream is not based on an Eheim 300 pump. Its based on an Eheim 1046 Pump

If the poweradjust USB unit can not restart the pump if it stops
will the unit sound and alarm or close down the PC ?

For the software, do the SDK aquasuite is updated for the poweradjust ? In your screen, the poweradjust is in a aquasuite windows, so perhaps we can monitor the data of poweradjust.

if it's ok for you, you can use the the exchange front plate of the aquastream which fits the poweradjust nicely (although it reads "aquastream")
