BLDC Pump Integration Possible?

[Hammerhead]

I have a Deepwater Aquatics BLDC12 return pump on my system. Wondering if anyone can advise if it's possible to control it (presumablhy via the 0-10 port) since it's a DC powered pump with its own controller, and if so, how one might go about doing so.

Does the pump have 0-10V INPUT? Did the manufacturer add that to the controller to make the pump compatible with more devices?

I wish I knew for sure. I was hoping someone here with deeper experience might have the answer.

You can always reach out to the manufacturer to find out for sure.

Looking at the picture you posted I'd guess that particular controller doesn't support 0-10v controls as there appear to be only the power and pump connectors. However a quick Google search brings up some Reef Builders posts from a few years ago and pictures from other sellers indicating there may be an upgraded Deepwater controller that does support 0-10v. Probably worth a call to the manufacturer.
