Part number is 5012.01. I believe it to be a standard 9v DC adaptor

Question #2 for Roger...any idea if the osmolator (pump only) can be triggered by the Neptune Controller? The Neptune has I/O on it for 2 wire connections, but think its only 5v. though

The pump needs 9V at a minimum and can handle up to 12V. When we switched to the electronic power supplies 11V was the standard that was available. We used to use a switching 9-12V power supply. As long as it does at least 9V and 800mA it should be fine.

i do have some 9 &12v adapters at the house, if i use one , whats the max mA i want to use. Just to be clear...this is for connecting to the osmolator controller and not the second question i asked about the pump by itself.

thanks

There really is no maximum, just a minimum, the pump will draw the amps it needs. anything between 800mA and 1600mA should be fine. 1000-1200mA would be ideal.
