Setup and Installation

  1. Positioning the Pump:

    Select a suitable location inside your aquarium for the wave maker. The pump features a 3D large rotation angle, allowing you to adjust the output water direction for optimal flow. Ensure the pump is fully submerged and positioned to create desired water movement without disturbing substrate or delicate corals.

  2. Attaching the Magnetic Base:

    Place the pump inside the aquarium and align the external magnet of the magnetic base on the outside of the aquarium glass, directly opposite the internal magnet attached to the pump. The strong magnetic force will secure the pump in place. Ensure the glass thickness is within the recommended limits for the magnetic base.

  3. Connecting the Controller:

    Connect the pump's cable to the designated port on the controller. Then, connect the power adapter to the controller and plug the adapter into a suitable electrical outlet. Ensure all connections are secure before powering on.

Operating Instructions

The EOW Smart Wave Maker offers both manual control via the LCD display controller and Wi-Fi control through the Jebao App.

Manual Control (LCD Display Controller)

The LCD display controller allows for direct adjustment of pump settings. Refer to the controller's specific button functions for mode selection, flow rate adjustment, and timer settings. The SINE wave technology ensures ultra-quiet operation and stable performance across various settings.

  • Mode Selection: Use the mode button to cycle through different wave patterns (e.g., constant flow, pulse mode, random flow).
  • Flow Rate Adjustment: Use the up/down arrows to increase or decrease the pump's output (132GPH to 1320GPH for EOW-5M).
  • Feed Mode: Activate feed mode to temporarily pause the pump for feeding, preventing food from being drawn into the filtration system.

Wi-Fi Control (Jebao App)

For advanced control and scheduling, download the Jebao App (available for iOS and Android devices) from your smartphone's app store. Follow the in-app instructions to connect your wave maker to your home Wi-Fi network.

  • App Pairing: Ensure your smartphone is connected to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network during the initial pairing process.
  • Custom Programs: Create custom schedules and wave patterns directly from the app.
  • Real-time Monitoring: Monitor pump status and adjust settings remotely.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your wave maker.

  1. Cleaning the Impeller:

    Over time, calcium deposits and algae can build up on the impeller, reducing efficiency. Disconnect the pump from power, remove it from the aquarium, and carefully detach the front cage. Remove the impeller and clean it thoroughly with a soft brush and a mild acid solution (e.g., vinegar or citric acid) to dissolve deposits. Rinse all parts with fresh water before reassembly.

  2. Cleaning the Pump Body:

    Wipe down the exterior of the pump body and the magnetic base to remove any debris or algae. Ensure no water enters the electrical connections.

  3. Cable Inspection:

    Periodically inspect the power cable and connections for any signs of wear, damage, or corrosion. Replace if necessary.

Note: The pump is designed with no exposed copper elements, making it suitable for both marine and freshwater environments.
