Hello,
I was eyeing a ReefBreeders Nautilus pump for the 0-10v option, but looking at the controller, the 0-10v seems to indicate it only operates on 4 power settings (in the yellow box in the image). BRS couldn't say for sure if that was true and RB has not replied to my inquiry. So, can anybody using one of these via 0-10v confirm how the power control operates? Is it really limited to these speeds on 0-10v or is it more granular than it leads on?

Thanks
 
I honestly can't quantify voltage but I can say i recently purchased a nautlus dc900 return pump and was able to tune it to the overflow/drain with gate valve without issue in minutes. The pump is silent, for the price point I don't think it can be beat. If you have anymore specific questions I'll try my best to help. Also check out premiumaquatics, I was able to buy mine cheaper there.
 
Are you running it via 0-10 volt in put or using the standard controller directly? Good tip on the site. Thanks
 
I am using the included controller directly
 
Got a reply from RB, apparently it is 0-10 granular control and the markings on the controller do not represent a restriction to use just those few power levels.
