IceCap Gyre Flow Pump Basic Controller
Achieving natural, linear water movement and eliminating dead zones in reef aquariums requires precise, reliable wavemaker control. The IceCap Gyre Flow Pump Basic Controller (SKU: IC-GYCTL) is the official OEM replacement control module designed specifically for IceCap 1K, 3K, 2K, and 4K Gyre Flow Pumps. High-humidity sump environments, salt creep, or accidental water splashes can cause original controllers to malfunction or lose display functionality over time.
Designed for intuitive plug-and-play operation, this basic controller features a clear digital display paired with a heavy-duty rotary selection dial and push-button controls. It provides total operational command over your Gyre pump, allowing aquarists to fine-tune continuous flow, alter pulse timing, set alternating gyre direction, and engage instant feed pauses without needing external software, Bluetooth, or Wi-Fi connections.
Ideal Replacement Scenario
If your existing IceCap Gyre controller screen has gone dark, buttons become unresponsive, or the unit fails to send speed signals to your Gyre pump motor block, replacing it with the authentic IC-GYCTL restores complete flow management.

Installation & Set-Up Guidelines:
Disconnect power to your IceCap Gyre setup before swapping controllers.
Unplug the pump motor cord and power adapter cable from the existing controller ports.
Secure the new IC-GYCTL controller onto a dry cabinet wall or mounting board away from water splashes.
Plug the Gyre pump motor cable into the pump output port and connect the 24V DC power supply into the power port.
Restore power, use the rotary dial to select your preferred flow pattern and speed percentage, and press to lock in settings.
Pro Tips:
- Mount Controller High and Away From Sump Moisture. Always mount wavemaker controllers on the outside of cabinet doors or high on internal stand walls. Moisture, humidity, and salt creep inside enclosed stand bases are the leading causes of electronic failure.
- Lock Buttons to Prevent Accidental Changes. Utilize the built-in button lock function after setting your preferred flow patterns. This prevents accidental speed changes during glass cleaning or routine aquarium maintenance.
