What is this thing?

Hello. It has been many many years since I have visited but found this piece of equipment in my garage along with some other reef-related stuff and would like to know what it is. I can't really remember but I'm pretty sure it has something to do with directing water flow. Please identify if you can and tell me if it has any value. It will be for sale.

Thanks in advance.

**EDIT to fix photo URLs

it is a valve that spins changing water flow from one port to another

I believe it was made by Ocean's Motions.

One pump discharge goes in the bottom.

There are four total return lines coming out.

A drum turns inside the body of the OM only lets two at any time open up. Drum is turned by a low wattage easily replaced motor.

Ideal for a closed loop.

This and the sea swirl are so clever, these guys have some great inventions.
