Dimensions of the VorTech pump?

[Raibaru]

Could someone tell me the dimensions of the vortech pump on both the external motor assembly and the internal rotor?

Planning a new tank and it's going to be a very tight squeeze. Just trying to get an idea on what side the pump will need to be.

Also, can the same waves that we see be achieved by 2 pumps on the same side working in unison as opposed to 2 on opposite sides?

Probably won't need to worry in a 36" across tank, but just figured it's a little nugget worth considering down the road. This hobby is a black hole afterall.

Hi Raibaru-

Down at the bottom of this page you'll find the dimensions of our product: http://www.ecotechmarine.com/products/mp40w.php

I would recommend about 3" of clearance between the glass and the wall for a VorTech. You can squeeze it in a tighter gap but I wouldn't recommend it.

You can achieve the same waves with two pumps on one side versus two pumps on opposite sides by placing the slave pump in sync mode versus anti-sync mode.
