Connecting the motor drum filter
The plug of the drum filter motor must be connected to
the control electronics. Use the 'MOTOR DRUM FILTER'
plug connection for this.
7.2.5
Rinse frequency
Ensure that the rinse frequency is not too high. If the
drum is being installed in an existing system, the rinse
frequency will be high during the first days/weeks
because the pond will be ‘cleaned’. The rinse frequency
will also be considerably higher when the weather is hot
(more food and more algae growth) than during colder
weather.
Other reasons why the rinse frequency is (too) high
include:
•
The pond pump is too large.
•
Too little water arrives because the pond water level
is too low or the supply system is incorrect from the
pond such as pipes that are too long, too few pipes
or the pipe diameter is too small.
•
The top sensor is set too high.
•
The mesh has become completely clogged because
of, for example, bacteria.
•
The pressure of the waste pump is too low.
•
The waste pump flow rate is too low.
A rinse frequency that is too high will lead to a high
rinse water consumption.
7.2.6
Control electronics
The control electronics has a protection class of IP54.
Electrical systems must always meet national and
international requirements/directives. Never open the
housing of the electronics. The electronics are sealed
and the guarantee will be null and void if the seal is
broken. Never make technical changes. Only authorised
dealers may perform repairs.
The control cabinet must be connected to an approved
earthed power socket. The electronics must be installed
vertically. The electronics may not be installed in the
rain without protection.
At most, 1000 W in peripherals may be connected for
each connected side. Every side is fused with a 5 x 20
mm 5 A/250 V (delay) fuse. A higher rated fuse may
never be used when the fuse is replaced.
