Tunze Masterstream
Recently, we seem to be fixated on Tunze. They are, of course, a great company with awesome products, but the reason for our fixation is all of the new products they have recently released. Tunze has added Silence Clamps to their Turbelle Stream pumps, redesigned their DOC Master Skimmers, introduced a Mangrove Box, added flow control to their Nanostream 6045 and Silence Pumps, and created a new Wavecontroller 7092. But that’s not all, Tunze is also releasing the mother of all water pumps…the Tunze Turbelle Masterstream. These new pumps put out multiple thousands of gallons of water flow, while maximizing energy efficiency. The Masterstreams are designed to handle huge setups, include massive aquariums, zoos, ponds, public aquariums, large fish breeding operations, and even swimming pools. The smallest of these exorbitantly powerful pumps puts out a whopping 20,000 to 80,000 l/h (5,283 to 21,133 USgal./h). Below is a list of all of the Masterstream’s specifications, as well as a diagram of the pump and its internals.
Tunze Masterstream
The new Masterstream – a class of circulation pumps in its own
After Turbelle Nanostream and Stream, Tunze is introducing a new class of pumps for the market segment of high-capacity propeller pumps, the Turbelle Masterstream. These new pumps are primarily intended for zoos, research institutes, rehabilitation clinics, fi sh-breeding operations, but there is also a model for aquarists running large aquariums, who need a powerful and wide fl ow rate for their reef tanks. Turbelle® masterstream have been designed for maximum effi ciency at economical energy consumption. On account of the new electronic Tunze PM motor operating on safety extra-low voltage, the pumps remain quiet even at top performance and in addition consume distinctly less energy for the same performance than conventional water pumps.ECO ENERGETIC
A small sample calculation using Turbelle Masterstream 6515 (150 m³/h – 280 W) reveals that energy efficient water movement results in enormous cost effectiveness: Tank volume: 60 m³, flow selection by centrifugal pump (32 m³/h – 2,200 W).CONTROLLABLE PERFORMANCE
The Turbelle Masterstream are electronically speed-controlled pumps operating on safety extra-low voltage of 12 V to 24 V. They can be used ideally for water circulation, wave action or wave-and-tide simulations. The models 6512 and 6515 come with Multicontroller 7096.A 12 V VERSION FOR SWIMMING POOLS
Model 6512 in 12 V technology and a flow rate of 110,000 l/h (29,058.9 USgal./h) has been designed especially for swimming pools or large aquariums.100 PERCENT CORROSION-RESISTANT
All parts of the pumps are made of sustainable active microbicidal (SAM) polymers and polyoxymethylenes (POM); the motor axle is made of titanium alloy; the motor and the electronics are cast in polyurethane (PU) resin.NO EXTERNAL CONTROL
The pump control is integrated completely in the motor block ensuring a low-maintenance operation with high efficiency and ideal water cooling. All Turbelle Masterstream pumps only require one external power supply unit or safety connector with a corresponding direct current source (battery, solar cell, et cetera).NO PROBLEM IN CASE OF POWER FAILURE
Fitted with Safety Connector 6515.50, Turbelle Masterstream can be operated on every 11 V to 24 V direct-current source (battery, solar cell). The safety connector permits normal operation with the Tunze power supply unit, but in case of a power failure it will automatically switch over to a car battery or a direct-current source.ECO ENERGETIC

At an annual operating time of 8,760 hours and a kilowatt price of EUR 0.20 this results in a cost saving of EUR 3,364 per annum!CONTROLLABLE PERFORMANCE
