Detailed Specs: 5.1VFX (5HP, 240V)

Designed to provide optimum performance and a stunning display for large ponds, Kasco’s 5.1VFX expands the proven VFX line into a 5 HP model.

The classic Kasco "V" fountain pattern, 9' tall x 34' wide gives this model a beautiful eye-catching display. The larger motor and enhanced propeller design gives a pumping rate of over 800 gallons per minute, adding maximum oxygen to improve your pond or lake aeration. It will assist in improving your water quality as well as adding to the aesthetic appeal of your pond.

It is available in a 240V, 60Hz model.

The 5.1VFX is supplied with a state-of-the-art GFCB protected control panel, model C-85. The panel includes a 240 volt control panel with timer, GFCB protection, 120V GFI protected outlet for lights, and photocell for light operation. Kasco recommends a licensed electrician to install the C-85 control panel and the 5.1VFX if you plan to hard-wire the unit into the C-85 control panel.

The 5.1VFX boasts an innovative float design with a low profile in the water for enhanced appearance, plus an attractive decorative shape.

Low Voltage Light kits are available in Red, Green, Blue and Yellow

Add an optional LR-375 Low Voltage Light Kit to the 5.1VFX to extend its beauty into the nighttime hours. Lighting enlivens the water display, turning water drops into glimmering jewels of light while creating a resort-like appearance to your overall water feature.

The LR-375 Low Voltage Light Kit includes three machined-bronze light fixtures each with 75 watt MR-16 Halogen lamps. The lighting kit’s transformer is integrated into the system, so there’s no extra wiring required. Simply plug it into the C-85 Control Panel and the lights will operate whenever the unit operates during darkness. Three clear MR-16 lamps are included with each kit. As an option, you can choose any or all of the optional colors of Red, Green, Blue and Yellow.
