Review: Excellent Pumps - These Jebao pumps are great. I've owned a couple over the past 8 years or so and they've been pretty much flawless despite my attempts to break them. I've literally ran them dry, ran them under vacuum with inlet and outlet sealed, and with all types of debris in the pump. I had one on a system on a metal rack that I needed to rework. I had to cut some of the metal bars to run pipe through. I didnt notice that a 2 inch piece of metal bar fell into the pump. The pump ran for a while and then locked up. I didnt notice until the following morning. Disassembled, removed the metal, and put it back together. Good as new. I can't say if its the pumps that are robust or the controller is smart and prevents damage, but these are very reliable. Its also damn near silent even at the full 40w on the 5000. Literally cannot hear it from a few feet away. Very little heat is produced. Excellent pumps.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What size pump would be good for a 125 gallon tank wirh a 40 gallon sump?**
A: The first thing you need to know is what your overflow pipe, overflow box, or pipe work is rated for. So example is lets say your overflow box is rated 600 gph. This means your pump can not exceed 600 gph ever otherwise you will literally drain your sump into your tank. So in short what ever your outlet or exit pipes or overflow box gph is rated for is the max your pump can run.

These Jebao can be turned down but not past 30%. So take the pumps rating and see what its output at 40% would be. Just in case the controller wont allow lower then 40% but the pump will still be viable down the road for larger set ups. I cant tell you what pump to get unless we know exactly what your rated outlet from the tank is rated for.

**Q: I'm confused with all the different models. we have the dc, dcp, dct, and dcs. which ones are the latest models?**
A: I believe the DCP sine wave pumps are the newest models.  These have a digital controller with a number output for the number of watts being consumed by the pump during normal operation.  The screen switches to show percent pump output when using the power selection arrows on the controller in increments of 5% from 30%-100%.

**Q: which would you recommend for an sca 50 gal with sump?**
A: 3600 DCT

**Q: Can it be used externally?**
A: Yes,  it can be run externally.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Up to snuff with the $200+ pumps
*by B***H on July 4, 2020*

Some of the components feel a little flimsy and roughly manufactured. However everything fits together well. It is very quiet. And the variatable speeds save electricity. The controller is simple enough to use. It has been in use for almost a year and is working very well. I was glad I purchased it and it has served me well. No leaks at all. Comes with glue unions which I used my regular PVC glue and primer on. Be careful of sizing this pump to your tank. The GPH rating is generous and does not factor in feet of head (height the pump has to send the water) the flow rates go down the higher it goes. All this to say this was perfect for my 100 gallon tank + 40 gallon sump. Update: 2 years running. Had a slight leak so I took it apart for a repair. The main body O-Ring failed and was leaking. Not the worst after two years but O-Rings should last a bit longer. I happen to be a commercial water valve technician so I had a replacement on hand. Upon complete take down and clean of all motor components it wasn’t over all in like new condition. After replacing the o-rings it worked like the day I first plugged it in. If I were you I would highly recommend contacting the seller who is very friendly and responsive and ask to buy a spare o-ring kit. And get some o-ring lube. In case you have the same issue. I personally will be buying a second pump to have on hand. Return pumps die or leak all the time it is what they do. If you have a spare that is the same one you can drop in the new one and get parts for the old one. Fish can’t wait for 2-day shipping. I still give this a 5-star. You can buy 5 of these for the price of the “name brand” dc pumps. If your buying this for the first time buy one more than you need. You will always be prepared for an emergency. I’ve seen other reviews about some mfg issues. They don’t have great quality control but they make up for it in customer support. And for the guy who put thread tape on an o-ring union 🤦🏼‍♂️. C’mon man! The o-ring in the union does the sealing not the threads. Don’t leave one star reviews because you don’t know basic plumbing. Guys o-rings fail. Have spares! And check your equipment often.
