Hozelock Cyprio Saturn Booster 1560, Manual

Page: 1 / 8

The Hozelock Cyprio Saturn
Booster is an innovative self-
cleaning mechanical prefilter.
Designed to operate before any
pump-fed biological filter for fishponds
ranging from 7,000 to 16,000 litres, the
Saturn Booster will remove up to 75% of
pond debris. This reduces filter maintenance
and improves the biological performance of
your existing filter.
DESCRIPTION
Dirty water from the pond is pumped into
the Saturn Booster and spun around a
circular polyester mesh filter. Most particles
are trapped by the mesh and then removed
by a rotating jet. Dislodged particles fall into
a large waste collection area at the bottom,
while the cleaned water passes through to
your existing filter system.
As it is a sealed unit, waste removal from
the Saturn Booster is simply a matter of
lifting the flush-away handle for a few
seconds every week.
The Saturn Booster is designed for simple
retrofitting into an existing installation. The
hosetails supplied allow connection to
25mm, 32mm or 40mm hose.
To ensure reliable operation, there are two
valves built into the inlet assembly. These
are colour coded – blue and red.
The red valve is a filter bypass valve and
prevents damage to the Saturn Booster if
for whatever reason pressure rises above
safe levels. The valve protects the Saturn
Booster by redirecting the flow back to
pond via the lower hose connection on the
inlet assembly.
The blue valve is a self-regulating pressure
sensitive relief valve, which ensures
optimum operation by controlling the
pressure differential across the filter mesh
inside the Saturn Booster. Depending on the
flow rate and level of debris, the valve can
move down during normal operation,
indicating that it is regulating the pressure.

• Always disconnect the electricity supply
before starting to handle, maintain,
repair or install any pond equipment.
• This product is not submersible, and
should be sited where it cannot fall into
the water or become waterlogged.
However, the design is weatherproof,
and the Saturn Booster can be safely
installed outdoors.
• This product is supplied with 10m of 3
core electric cable for connection to the
mains supply. The termination to the
mains supply should be permanent,
inside a dry, weatherproof enclosure,
through a double pole switched fused
spur with a minimum contact gap of
3mm – ‘(disconnector) to BS 3676’ – and
fitted with a 3 amp fuse.
• THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED
AND IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE
CONNECTIONS ARE MADE USING THE
FOLLOWING CODE;
Brown - Live
Blue - Neutral
Green/Yellow -
Earth
The BROWN lead should be connected
to the LIVE terminal which may be
marked with an 'L' or coloured brown
or red. The BLUE lead should be
connected to the NEUTRAL terminal
which may be marked with an 'N' or
coloured blue or black. The
GREEN/YELLOW lead should be
connected to the EARTH terminal
which may be marked with an 'E' or
coloured green or green/yellow.
• Exposed cable runs should be sensibly
positioned and protected if necessary by
armoured conduit.
• A 10mA or 30mA Residual Current Circuit
Breaker (RCD) MUST be fitted to the
mains supply.
• Permanent installations to the mains
supply (hard wiring) must comply with
the regulations of your local authority.
Contact your local authority building
control department for advice before you
start installation and they will let you
know how to get your installation
approved.
• If in any doubt about wiring to the
mains supply, consult a qualified
electrician or your local authority.
• The pump is fitted with 10m of 3 core
electric cable which is permanently
connected and sealed to the motor.
The supply pump cable cannot be
replaced. If the cable is damaged, the
pump should be removed and discarded
and replaced with a new pump.
• Protect from frost if the unit is not run
year round, by draining and removing to
a store in a dry, frost protected place.
• When full of water, the Saturn Booster
weighs nearly 100kg. DO NOT attempt to
move when full of water. To drain, pull
up the flush handle to empty some of
the water, and then gently tilt the
Booster until most of the water is
emptied.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The Booster is a sealed
product and can be installed below pond
level. If you plan to bury it you will have to
remove the lid and siphon or ladle the
water out to empty it (for winter storage).
Never completely bury the Booster. Ensure
the lid and valve housing are above ground
as shown in Fig. 4.
1. INSTALLATION
Important :
The Saturn Booster can be fitted in a wide
variety of installations. However the
following conditions must be met:
• Water flow through the Saturn Booster
must be between 3500 litres per hour
and 8000 litres per hour.
• The Saturn Booster has to be connected
to an in-pond pump i.e. it is not suitable
for gravity-fed installations.
• Ensure the in-pond pump is raised
200mm (9”) above the bottom of the
pond. This will prevent any sediment on
the pond floor overwhelming your filter,
and in the event of a leak outside the
pond, prevent your pond from being
completely emptied. If the pond has a lot
