Installing and connecting the Filtoclear
pressure filter
Installing the Filtoclear pressure filter
Choose a suitable location for the pressure filter. Please note the
installation guidelines regarding the clear water guarantee as well
as the following guidelines:
– Install the Filtoclear pressure filter with integrated UVC so that it
is safe from flooding. Secure your Filtoclear so that it will not fall into
the pond. It should be placed at least 2m from the edge of the pond.
– Place the filter on a firm and level base, e.g. on a slab. The filter
can also be dug in up to the step on the filter box.
– Please ensure that there is unhindered access to the lid in
order to be able to carry out work on the filter, e.g. cleaning the
filter sponges.
– Never operate the Filtoclear pressure filter with integrated
UVC with a water pressure greater than 0.2 bar (2mwh). The
height difference between the lid and pressure-free outlet can
therefore be a maximum of 2m.
Connecting hoses
Decide which hose diameter you need based on the selection
table and the recommended hose according to the installation
guidelines for the clear water guarantee (page 8 and 9). Only
operate the Filtoclear with pressure hoses that are approved for a
pressure of at least 0.2 bar, i.e. the maximum pressure of the
pump. From the OASE range, we recommend the green spiral
hose with the corresponding hose clip.
Note: We recommend warming the hose with hot water, pushing
/ twisting it onto the spiral stepped hose adapter and securing it
with a hose clip. This makes the connection more watertight.
Important!: To avoid pressure loss, cut the spiral stepped hose
adapter at the relevant point to fit each hose (see illustration).

Connection at water inlet
Push the union nut onto the black spiral stepped hose adapter.
Push / twist the hose on and secure with a hose clip.
Insert the flat seal into the union nut and screw tight onto the
