Aquaforte Biofleece 300 II COMBI With Filter Media Pond Filter

Aquaforte Biofleece 300 II COMBI With Filter Media Pond Filter

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.
