NEWA NJ1200 (1200 L/HR. 145CM LIFT)

Description

The NEWA NJ1200 Water Pump delivers 1,200 litres per hour maximum flow rate with a 145cm maximum head height, providing the circulation capacity required for medium to large hydroponic systems, substantial reservoirs, and commercial-scale flood-and-drain or NFT growing setups. NEWA’s NJ range is built around the same magnet-drive technology that makes their MJ series reliable — eliminating shaft seals and delivering consistent, long-service performance across the demanding continuous-duty requirements of professional hydroponic operation.

Applications for the NJ1200 Flow Rate

At 1,200 litres per hour, the NEWA NJ1200 is appropriate for a broader range of hydroponic applications than lower-flow pumps. It handles reservoir circulation in systems up to 100 litres effectively. It provides the flow rate needed for flood-and-drain tables of medium to large footprint, where rapid, even flooding of the entire growing area within the desired cycle time requires genuine flow volume. In NFT systems, the NJ1200 provides more than adequate flow for multiple parallel channels with consistent solution distribution across all channel lengths. The pump also suits applications where the nutrient solution must be lifted to a significant height — grow room configurations where the reservoir sits at floor level and feeding points are at table or elevated bench height benefit from the 145cm head rating that keeps flow consistent against the pressure of the lift distance. At The Horticulture Company we have been supplying NEWA pumps to professional hydroponic growers since 2017. The brand’s combination of engineered reliability and competitive pricing makes them a sound investment for any serious growing operation.

Installation and Maintenance

The NJ1200 is fully submersible and operates within the nutrient reservoir. Position the pump at the reservoir floor, away from walls, to allow free intake of solution from all sides. Connect outlet tubing to your distribution system. Inspect the pump every six to eight weeks and clean the impeller housing of any mineral or debris build-up that could reduce flow rate. Magnet-drive pumps are straightforward to disassemble and clean, extending service life significantly with minimal maintenance effort.
