Models
-
WXA-101: Fixed flow to one air stone or undergravel filter. No dial.
-

-
WXA-401: Battery pump for one air stone. Uses two AA batteries, which are not included. For short runs, moving fish, or a power cut.
Setup
- Fit a check valve in the airline if the pump sits below the water line, so water cannot siphon back during a power cut.
- Place the pump on a sturdy, level surface. The rubber feet reduce vibration on a solid base.
- Rinse the air intake filter under the pump every few months so airflow stays up.
- For the WXA-401, fit two AA batteries. They are not included.
Always follow directions on product packaging.
