Neptune WAV Magnet upgrade

thingiverse

My aquarium is a robust 1 1/8 inches thick. The WAV magnet has a limited range of about an inch, so I required a new mount to ensure secure alignment. This custom-designed mount can hold two powerful BY0X08BR-N52 magnets from KJ Magnetics and aligns them perfectly with the WAV pump. To achieve optimal results, one magnet should be oriented with its north pole facing up, while the other is positioned with its north pole facing down in the holder. No adhesive or additional materials are necessary for this mount. However, some minor adjustments may be required to secure a precise fit, especially if your 3D printer has slightly different dimensions than mine. The magnet's snug fit within the rubber coating helps maintain stability and prevents any potential movement. With this magnetic setup, my two WAV pumps remain firmly in place despite the surprisingly thick aquarium walls.
