Empower yourself with the EFR RESERVOIR MA, the manually activated counterpart to the EFR RESERVOIR 4.5 that gives you ultimate control.

The EFR RESERVOIR MA is specially designed for individuals who value having a little more control over their operations. With the Manual Activation (MA) feature, users can retain a tiny bit of autonomy by choosing when to initiate the reservoir refilling process. This added control allows for a personalized touch in managing fluid levels, ensuring optimal performance and minimal waste. Whether it's to align with specific operational preferences or simply to maintain a hands-on approach, the EFR RESERVOIR MA empowers users to strike the perfect balance between automation and manual intervention, all while reaping the benefits of increased SFX machine life, cost savings, and overall efficiency.

 

The EFR RESERVOIR MA quickly pays for itself by:

  • Reduce dry running and extend SFX machine life.
  • Refill with ease and eliminate the need for excessive manual labor.
  • Increase fluid capacity and enjoy lowered refill frequency.
  • Achieve optimal SFX machine placement flexibility.
  • Unlock potential cost savings with bulk fluid purchasing.
  • Minimize fluid spillage.
  • Take back your time and allocate it to other workplace tasks.

Possible applications:

  • Snow machines
  • Haze machines
  • Fog/low fog machines
  • Haunted houses
  • Christmas shows
  • Theme parks 
  • Theatres
  • Dance clubs

Each package includes:

EFR RESERVOIR™ MA

  • x1 pumping module, 4.5 L/min / 1.18877 gal/min, 60 PSI Max.
  • x1 power module, hold to activate push button
  • x1 5 Liter / 1.32 Gallon nominal capacity reservoir with sensor module
  • x2 stainless steel bolt tube clamps, 29/64" to 33/64" ID
  • Pump mounting hardware
  • 1 year limited warranty

EFR RESERVOIR™ MALITE

  • x1 pumping module, 4.5 L/min / 1.18877 gal/min, 60 PSI Max.
  • x1 power module, hold to activate push button
  • x1 reservoir hookup hardware
  • x2 stainless steel bolt tube clamps, 29/64" to 33/64" ID
  • Pump mounting hardware
  • 1 year limited warranty

Key differences:

  • The  MALITE does not come with a reservoir and instead includes hardware that facilitates installation into a variety of reservoirs. Ensure that the chosen reservoir has sufficiently thick walls to support the hardware securely.
  • The MALITE does not incorporate a float switch to automatically gauge the fluid level. Therefore, when initiating the pump, it is crucial to actively monitor the fluid level.
  • The MALITE does not support reservoir illumination.

The EFR Reservoir MALITE comes with reservoir attachment hardware allowing you to connect to a single exisiting reservoir. The hardware included allows ease of installation, assuming the exisiting reservoir is small in nature and lacks enough interior hand room.

However, if there is ample hand room within the exisiting reservoir, you may try installing a compression union bulkhead fitting with a push-to-connect or barb fitting, and use flat gaskets to prevent fluid leakage.

To allow for greater and more specific customization of your setup, tubing is not included.

Recommended tubing:

ALL ORDERS ARE CUSTOM MADE AND PROCESSING TIMES VARY PER ORDER. PLEASE READ THE RETURN/REFUND POLICY AND WARRANTY POLICY BEFORE PURCHASING.

NOT FOR USE WITH FLAMMABLE OR HAZARDOUS FLUIDS. ONLY USE FLUID AS SPECIFIED BY YOUR EFFECT MACHINE'S PRODUCT GUIDELINES.


Additional Notes:

  1. Tube reducers may be required for connecting the reservoir to specific effect machines.
  2. The maximum fluid push capability of the EFR Reservoir 4.5 has currently only been tested at a distance of 145 feet away from the pump, reaching 45 feet in the air and an additional 100 feet away from the peak. However, mathematical calculations support the potential for even greater distances. Keep in mind that high altitude fluid push may result in reduced flow rate and efficiency. The maximum distance of use is dependent on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, fluid type, tubing type and size, ambient and fluid temperature, connecting cable wire gauge, and more. For detailed information, please refer to the operator's manual. To ensure optimal performance, all relevant variables should be considered when planning your setup. The use of quick connect/link adapters is not recommended.
  3. The pump and reservoir both have check valves at their outlets to prevent backflow. Any inline check valves in the tubing should have a minimum opening pressure of 1 and a working pressure of 60PSI or higher.
