1 Ubbink FiltraClear – Pond Filter

Commissioning

WARNING: The pump and the UVC device must be disconnected from the mains supply before performing any installation work!

To remove the lter cover, open the 2 click-closures on the broad rear UVC side of the lter, lift o the cover and release the two retainers (Fig. 1)

Prepare both lter chambers for setting-up

1) Insert partition (Fig.6)

With FiltraClear 2500/4500 (1) : in the middle guide rail

With FiltraClear 6000/8000 (2) : in the right and left guide rails

2) Position the lter media (included) (Fig.7)

FiltraClear 2500/4500 : in chambers 1 and 2

FiltraClear 6000/8000 : in chambers 1, 2 and 3

3) Screw the ball valve (for draining dirt) to lter chamber 1 (Fig. 4)

Push the enclosed 40 mm hose piece onto the hoze nozzle and secure the waste connection with the enclosed 38-42mm hose clamp (Fig. 9).

Install the supplied UVC device in the lter lid:

1. Detach the small cover from the lter lid by releasing the click-retainers on the underside of the lid (see the arrow markings (Fig. 2)

2. Prepare the UVC device in accordance with the instruction manual for setting-up.

3. Now t the UVC device into the large lter lid, lay the electrical cable into the provided recess and screw the connection unit in tightly (Fig. 3)

4. Fit the small cover back onto the lter lid, retaining in place with the click-retainers (Fig. 4)

5. Place the lter next to or near your pond so that it can still be easily accessed when you later have to maintain the lter. To obtain maximum power, the pond lter must be put in a

place that is in the shade or is partly shaded during the day. Ensure that the pond lter is set horizontally and slightly raised on a hard surface, so that both ballvalves are easy to

access.

Prepare the pump for connection with the in ow connector (UVC) of the FiltraClear unit. Observe the instructions for use supplied with the pump.

Connect the pump and pond lter to the pond pipe, which has been cut to the required length. Use the appropriate pipe nozzles. Universal pipe nozzles must be shortened as required.

Now place the pump in the pond. Observe the requirements regarding minimum water depth and place the pump on solid ground, free of mud and sand.

Before putting the FiltraClear pond lter system into operation, check once again that:

1. The sealing cover and in ow connection from the lter are properly screwed on,

2. The ball valve for draining dirt is closed,

3. The pipe connections from the lter in ow and out ow are properly tted,

4. The instructions for use of both the pump and the UV-C device have been read and observed.

You can then bring the FiltraClear Pond Filter System into operation in the following sequence:

1. Always switch the pump on rst and check whether water ows evenly through the UVC device and the FiltraClear Pond Filter.

2. Check the entire pond lter system again for leaks. We recommend sealing leaky hose connections with suitable hose clips or standard te on tape.

3. Only then switch on the UVC device (if there is one) and check the operation of the UV lamp by visual inspection safely using the device's inspection window (blue light).

Note: during the period of bacteria development in the lter chambers (around 6-8 weeks from commissioning) the UVC device should not be switched on again.

4. It is important that your FiltraClear Pond Filter is in uninterrupted operation. Only for maintenance and during the winter period should the system be completely switched o .

5. If the pond lter is to be taken out of operation, always switch the UVC device o rst. Only then may the pump be switched o and the water drained from the pond lter.

Maintenance and Cleaning

WARNING: The pump and the UVC device must be disconnected from the mains supply before performing any maintenance or cleaning activities!

•

If pump performance falls o , that could mean the pump interior is dirty and has to be cleaned. Please clean the pump in accordance with the instructions.

•

If growth of oating algae in your pond visibly increases again, the cause may be a decrease in performance of the UVC device, caused by deposits on the quarz tube and/or a

decrease of the radiation intensity of the UVC lamp. In this case, the UVC lamp must be cleaned or the UVC lamp replaced. To do this, please proceed in accordance with the UVC

instructions.

• Depending on the level of pollution of the pond water it may be necessary - particularly in the rst few weeks after setting-up of the lter - to rinse out the dirt sediment from the

lter chambers using the ballvalve. You do not need to switch o the pond lter to do this.
