The classic Kasco "V" fountain pattern, 8' tall x 32' wide gives this model a beautiful eye-catching display. The larger motor and enhanced propeller design gives the 8400VFX & 2.3VFX 2.5 times the water flow as the 4400VFX. It is precision engineered to add maximum oxygen to improve your pond or lake aeration. It will assist in improving your water quality as well as adding to the aesthetic appeal of your pond.
It is available in a 240V, Single Phase and 208/240V, 3 Phase 60Hz models.
Examples of THE 8400VFX in use:
The 8400VFX is supplied with a state-of-the-art GFCB protected control panel, model C-85. The panel includes a timer for the fountain, timer for the optional light kit, Class A Human Rated GFCI protection, hard wire terminal block, surge protection, all in a thermoplastic NEMA 3r/4x rated enclosure. Kasco recommends a licensed electrician to install the C-85 control and fountain hook up.
The 2.3VFX, 3 phase unit is supplied with a simple to use, all inclusive GFI protected 3 phase control panel, model CF-3235. Without the confusing options, these panels include all the best features. Included in this UL-508A, non-metallic 4x/3r panel is a true, 3 phase rated personnel protection GFI with a 5ma trip level. Also included is a motor starter with adjustable overload, lightning/surge protection, two 24 Hour time clocks (one for the unit and one for lights), and a Hand-Off-Auto switch. Other features are an angled field wiring terminal block for easy installation, input terminals for field installed interlock, and startup instructions with wiring diagram in the door. A licensed electrician should install this panel.
The 8400VFX & 2.3VFX boast an innovative float design with a low profile in the water for enhanced appearance, plus an attractive decorative shape.
Low Voltage Light kits are available in Red, Green, Blue and Yellow
Add an optional LR-375 Low Voltage Light Kit to the 8400VFX & 2.3VFX to extend its beauty into the nighttime hours. Lighting enlivens the water display, turning water drops into glimmering jewels of light while creating a resort-like appearance with the overall water feature.
The LR-375 Low Voltage Light Kit includes three machined-bronze light fixtures each with 75 watt MR-16 Halogen lamps. The lighting kit’s transformer is integrated into the system, so there’s no extra wiring required. Simply plug it into the C-85 Control Panel and the lights will operate whenever the unit operates during darkness. Three clear MR-16 lamps are included with each kit. As an option, you can choose any or all of the optional colors of Red, Green, Blue & Yellow. Two sets of LR375 lights can be added for more dramatic displays.
Features and Benefits of the 8400VFX & 2.3VFX

We got sized by a technician at absolute aquatics. they recommended the 8400VFX because we wanted something that looked good but needed plenty of aeration. We stocked our pond with fish. Its been right at a year and no fish kills and the algea has not been as much of an issue over the warmer months. We didn't use any algeacide this past year. Although I was told the fountain may not stop all the algae growth along the edges, it seam to work very well in our pond.I highly recommend this Kasco fountain. I also recommend Absolute Aquatics because of the customer service. Its been a great experience. They called us about 4 months ago to see how everything was going. You don't get that every day.They are great company to do business with.
