JBL NitratEx, Directions For Use Manual

Page: 6 / 20

Note:
JBL NitratEx cannot be used directly in saltwater aqua-
riums. However, JBL NitratEx can be used to reduce
any nitrate levels in tap water before the water is added
to the saltwater aquarium.
Regeneration:
Make a salt solution consisting of 100 g iodine-free salt
and 1 l water in a plastic container. Place the net bag with
JBL NitratEx in the solution for one to two days, moving
it backwards and forwards frequently. Gently "kneading"
the bag ensures that it is saturated with salt solution.
Rinse the bag thoroughly in fresh water. The specified
amount of salt solution is sufficient to regenerate a bag
containing 250 ml JBL NitratEx. For more bags, increase
the amount correspondingly.
The absorbtion capacity may drop after the material has
been regenerated several times. In this case, fresh JBL
NitratEx should be used. If regeneration is carried out
carefully, the absorbtion capacity will remain high longer.
Note:
Do not use hot water to regenerate or rinse! Use cold
tapwater only (max. 30° C)! After the first use, the pro -
duct must not be allowed to dry out because it will lose
its efficiency. When not in use, regenerate and store the
moist product, e.g. in a tight-sealing plastic bag. Keep
the product well protected from very low temperatures.
