Intended use
Filtral 2500 UVC / 5000 UVC, referred to as "unit", may only be used as specified in the following:
• For cleaning garden ponds.
• For operation with clean water.
• Operate in accordance with instructions.
The UVC lamp installed in the unit is intended to kill algae and bacteria in the pond water. Even in small doses, its radi-
ation is harmful for eyes and skin. Never use the UVC lamp in a defective housing or outside the housing, or any other
purpose other than that intended.
The following restrictions apply to the unit:
• Do not use in swimming ponds.
• Never use the unit to convey fluids other than water.
• Never run the unit without water.
• Do not use for commercial or industrial purposes.
• Do not use in conjunction with chemicals, foodstuff, easily flammable or explosive substances.
Installation
Filtral 2500
Unit assembly (Fig. A)
Assemble the branch valve (12), the connection element for the ball joint (19), the nozzle tube (11) with the clamping
screw (10), nozzle mounting (9) and nozzle insert (8), then screw the assembly on the connection thread of the UVC
water housing (26) including the washer (14). The fountain height and shape depend on the nozzle insert (8) used.
If required, connect an additional hose for features or a water course to the lateral separately regulated connection of
the branch valve (12).
If you only use the lateral outlet at the branch valve (12), close the upper outlet using the cover cap (38).
Filtral 5000:
Connecting the venting pump – option (Fig. V-Y)
If you wish to enrich the water with additional oxygen, connect the venting pump (Aqua Oxy) prior to installing the unit.
The Aqua Oxy scope of delivery includes the aeration stone and the hose.
Open the filter housing (Fig. V): Pull the clamps on both sides of the bottom strainer casing (2) to the side and lift off
the top strainer casing (1). Remove the foam filter (3).
Connect the aeration stone (figure W): Inside the housing, connect the aeration stone (25) with a section of the hose
(4) to the air connector (5) and place the aeration stone (25) between the gravel bags (24). Ensure that the hose is not
kinked. Connect the aeration pump (Aqua Oxy) to the air connector (5) outside of the housing. Read the aeration pump
documentation.
Close the filter housing (Fig. Y): Place the foam filter (3) in the bottom strainer casing (2). Attach the top strainer casing
(1) and press it onto the bottom strainer casing (2) until the clamps engage in the bottom strainer casing.
Important: Lead the connection cable (7) through the cable opening in the bottom strainer casing (2) and route the
cable such that pinching is avoided.
Unit assembly (Fig. A)
Assemble the reduction element (13), branch valve (12), nozzle tube (11) with the clamping screw (10), nozzle mount-
ing (9) and nozzle insert (8), then screw the assembly on the connection thread of the UVC water housing (26) includ-
ing the washer (14). The fountain height and shape depend on the nozzle insert (8) used.
If required, connect an additional hose for features or a water course to the lateral separately regulated connection of
the branch valve (12). For this purpose, screw the reduction element (15) and the stepped hose adapter (16) on the
lateral outlet of the branch valve (12).
Installation
Set-up the unit
Place the unit in the pond on a horizontal, firm and sludge free ground and ensure that it is completely covered by wa-
ter.
Setting the fountain/water feature (Fig. B, C)
Pull the nozzle tube (11) to the desired length. Undo the clamping screw (10), vertically align the nozzle tube (11) and
fasten the clamping screw (10) hand tight.
Fully open the rotary regulator (18) for the fountain. The rotary regulator (17) for the features or the water course is
also used to control the fountain/water feature. The additional water recirculation via the lateral outlet improves the fil-
tering effect, even if the feature or the water course is not connected.
