About OASE AquaOxy 1000
The OASE AquaOxy 1000 is a small 12 V pond aeration pump designed to supply air to garden ponds. According to OASE product data this unit has a maximum air flow equivalent given as 1,000 l/h and a rated electrical power of 15 W. It is supplied with a separate 12 V power unit and is described by the manufacturer as suitable for general ponds up to 10.0 m³. The unit is rated IP44 for splash-water protection and OASE lists its outdoor suitability as "unlimited," indicating it is intended for outdoor pond use when used with the supplied low‑voltage transformer. What you get in the box (per OASE): the aerator pump with a separate 12 V power unit, two wear‑free aeration stones, and two 5 m air hoses (4.5 mm diameter). Outlet connections are listed as 4–5 mm and the unit provides two outlets. Airflow is mechanically adjustable (OASE: "infinitely adjustable air outflow rate"). OASE also publishes spare parts and accessories for this model (hose set, transformer, membrane set and valve set) and provides downloadable operating instructions on the product page. OASE quotes pressure values in the technical table (e.g., "Pressure 0.2 / 2.00" and "Pressure output, max. 0.2 bar"). The manufacturer does not publish a maximum head in metres, nor separate numeric fish or koi capacity figures. The product warranty shown by OASE is two years. For installation, maintenance and safety follow the official OASE operating instructions listed on the product page.
Best for
Providing aeration for outdoor garden ponds up to the manufacturer‑stated 10.0 m³ general pond capacity; situations requiring two aeration outlets and included hoses/stones.
Things to consider
OASE does not publish a maximum head in metres; the product page gives pressure values (e.g. 'Pressure 0.2 / 2.00' and 'Pressure output, max. 0.2 bar') but no head conversion is provided by the manufacturer. No separate numeric fish or koi pond capacity (fish counts or koi‑stock volumes) is stated by OASE. There is an inconsistency in net weight between OASE pages (3.798 kg vs 3.742 kg); both values come from OASE pages and OASE should be queried for a single authoritative net weight if required.
Installation
Unit uses a separate 12 V power unit (OASE lists cable lengths); rated IP44 for splash protection and OASE lists outdoor suitability as 'Unlimited'. Follow the OASE operating instructions available on the product page for correct assembly, placement of aeration stones and connection of the transformer.
Maintenance
OASE describes the supplied aeration stones as wear‑free and lists spare parts (membrane set, valve set, hose set). Operating instructions and product manual PDFs are available from OASE for maintenance and spare‑part replacement guidance. No maintenance intervals are specified by OASE on the product page.
Safety
The product is supplied with a 12 V power unit and is described by OASE as suitable for outdoor use; the unit has IP44 splash‑water protection. Follow the manufacturer's operating instructions and safety guidance as provided in the downloadable documentation.
