POOL PUMP AQUAGEM INVERTER INVERMAX (2.5KW) DCX25

Aquagem Pool Pump – Ultra Quiet, Full Inverter Efficiency for Pools 90,000–150,000L 

Product Description

The Aquagem InverMax DCX25 2.5kW inverter pool pump is a high capacity full inverter swimming pool pump designed for large residential and light commercial pool systems from 90 to 150m³.

It is built for pool owners and installers who need strong water movement without the constant high electricity use and noise level of a traditional single speed pump. Instead of running at full power all the time, the InverMax DCX25 uses full inverter technology to adjust pump performance according to the pool’s circulation demand.

For daily filtration, the pump can run at a lower operating level to reduce unnecessary power use and noise. When higher flow is needed, such as during backwashing, faster water turnover, high demand filtration or larger hydraulic systems, the pump can increase performance.

The DCX25 is listed with a 2.5kW power rating, 43m³/h maximum flow rate, 25.5m maximum head, and a recommended pool volume range of 90 to 150m³. It delivers a listed 40m³/h at 8m head, 38m³/h at 10m head and 24.7m³/h at 20m head, making it suitable for demanding pool circulation setups.

The InverMax combines full inverter technology, a PMSM brushless DC motor, a FOC controller and an optimised volute hydraulic system. This combination is designed to reduce energy waste, reduce turbulence, improve efficiency and lower operating noise.

The smart touch display allows users to monitor operating information and manage pump settings. The unit supports Wi-Fi operation and optional external control through supported control modules or connection methods, making it suitable for modern pool equipment rooms and smart pool control systems.

What Is the Aquagem InverMax DCX25?

The Aquagem InverMax DCX25 is a high performance 2.5kW full inverter swimming pool pump.

It circulates pool water through the filtration system, moving water from the pool through the weir, pump, filter and return lines.

It is suitable for:

• Large residential pools from 90 to 150m³
• Pools from 90,000 to 150,000 litres
• Light commercial pool filtration systems
• Larger pools requiring strong circulation
• Pool systems with higher flow demand
• Pool owners replacing compatible high power single speed pumps
• Smart pool installations
• Pool systems requiring quiet daily filtration
• Professional pump and filter installations

It does not replace the pool filter, salt chlorinator, automatic pool cleaner, robotic cleaner, chemical treatment or water testing routine.

Why Choose the Aquagem InverMax DCX25?

The InverMax DCX25 is designed for large pool systems where a smaller residential pump may not provide enough flow.

A standard single speed pump runs at one fixed speed whenever it is switched on. This can waste electricity during normal filtration because the pump operates at full output even when the pool only needs steady circulation.

The InverMax DCX25 can adjust performance according to demand. Lower operating levels can be used for everyday filtration, while higher output can be used when the system needs stronger circulation.

This can help with:

• Lower electricity use compared with running a high power single speed pump continuously
• Quieter daily operation
• Stronger flow when needed
• Better control over filtration schedules
• Reduced unnecessary motor strain
• Better comfort around the pool area
• More flexible operation for larger pool systems

Actual savings depend on pool size, plumbing design, filter size, pump settings, operating hours, water condition and electricity tariff.
