Renewed
model with more/larger inputs and a larger output for a much larger flow!
The
AquaForte BioFleece, pump-fed, fleece filter offers the perfect combination of
mechanical and biological filtration in one closed unit! The filter fleece
takes care of the very fine mechanical filtration, and the “bio drum” with
filter media takes care of the biological filtration. The BioFleece has a
strong LDPE housing. Power is supplied by an external adapter that powers the
24V motor.
The
water is pumped into the filter (1) and passes through the fleece membrane to
gravity exit the filter through the “bio-drum” (3). The fleece membrane is
capable of capturing solids up to approximately 40 microns therefore preventing
the biological filter area from “bio fouling”. Nitrifying bacteria will
establish on the filter media inside the “bio-drum” to break down any harmful
ammonia and nitrite. The biological area is virtually maintenance free as only
pre-filtered water will enter. When the fleece membrane slowly saturates with
waste the water level inside the filter house will rise until it reaches the
top sensor (5). When this sensor is in contact with water for 60 seconds it
will trigger the motor to run. The motor will slowly turn the bio-drum for 3
seconds to provide new (clean) fleece membrane for the water to flow through.
This action causes the water level inside the filter to go down. After this
action, the control unit has a delay time of 20 seconds in which it will not
respond to the level sensor. If the sensor remains active because of an error (i.e.,
a blocked water returns pipe), the control unit will trigger the motor function
again up to 3 times. If the error has not corrected all LED indicators will
flash to indicate the error.
This
safety function is especially designed to prevent unnecessary use of fleece
membrane roll. When you press the red button, you will manually cancel the
error and the delay time. If the motor does not operate correctly, or the
fleece membrane is not transported the right way, the water will always safely
return to the pond through the safety outlet (4).
Please be
aware – The maximum flow is only possible when using the 20-gram fleece rolls
because of the permeability.
