The Waveline DC10000 is a variable speed water pump which is the big brother to the DC5000 powering some RLSS skimmers. The Waveline DC10,000 uses the same controller as the DC5000, with a feed button to shut things down for ten minutes, and a soft start feature that gradually ramps the pump back up from 0 to 100% power. The capacity of the DC5000 varies the water flow output from 400 to 1300 gallons per hour but the prototype Waveline DC10000 has a minimum flowrate of 700 gallons per hour to about double that of the DC5000 with 2600 gph. RLSS only teases the DC10K which is being made as we speak, but not yet hitting local stores with the jury still out on pricing as well.
