In a single operation, this modular internal filter ensures the mechanical-biological
cleaning of the aquarium water with permanent circulation, specific surface movement
and controllable oxygen supply.
Thanks to the pump head that rotates in three dimensions, it is possible to adjust the
outflow direction. The output regulator determines the desired flow rate and the air
enrichment can be regulated using the diffusor or nozzle tube.
In the filter containers, foamed material cartridges provide for mechanical cleaning and
EHEIM SUBSTRAT
pro
for efficient biological water purification.
The practical holder allows the filter to be positioned inside the aquarium and removed
with ease.
The product is qualified in accordance with the respective national regulations and
guidelines and meets EC standards.

Installation / Putting into operation
B
Attach diffuser with air hose and air regulating valve or place nozzle tube on
outlet connection.
C
Fasten the holder with the suction cups to the inside of the aquarium glass and
clip the filter into place.
D
Insert the filter such that the pump head is positioned just beneath the surface
of the water (approx. 1 cm). Adjust the pump head to the required outflow area
and surface angle.
E
By turning the power regulator, it is possible to infinitely adjust the pump power
to the required setting. The diffuser’s air regulating valve is used to regulate the
amount of oxygen added to the water.
Important:
The diffuser power decreases
in line with the degree of soiling.
Cleaning
F
Disconnect the filter from the power supply
and then pull upwards out of the
holder.
G
The individual filter containers can be easily separated from one another by a
slight pressure on the clip.
H
Then clean the modules and wash out the prefilter cartridge. Only rinse off
slightly the EHEIM SUBSTRAT
pro
biological filtering material under luke-
warm water so as to preserve the bacterial lawn and accelerate redevelopment
of it.
I
Pull the edge provided the cover grate out of the pump head retainer. Wash out
or replace the fine filter cartridge. Finish by reassembling the cleaned filter
components, taking care to assemble these in the correct way.
Caution:
Do not overfill filter inserts as, otherwise, their accurate fit is no lon-
ger assured.
