6025 on a timer

[TrickyGr]

Hello ,

I want to hook up a nano 6025 on a timer so it will turn off during the night (12 hours) and turn back on in the morning.

Will this ON-OFF-0N procedure every 12 hours affect in any way the long term operation/reliability of the pump ? Or simply speaking , is it better for these pumps to work continuously 24/7 ?

I have noted here that the minimum period between ONs-OFFs is 15 minutes and i am talking abt 12 hours intervals , but i don't want to risk the long term operational reliability of the pump in any way :rolleyes:

I have the 220V version of 6025 since i am in Europe if this has anything to do with what i am asking.

Thanks a lot

The only problem is the risk of foreign objects entering the pump, a little noise on start up and debris accumulation may cause a backwards rotation as the pump gets dirty.
