Start-up
Adhere to the safety information given above! Always switch the pump on prior to starting the unit, and check the correct
seating of the connected hoses, the cover cap and the clamping ring with safety latch. The function switch must be turned
to the „Filter“ symbol. Connect the power supply, the blue control lamp is lit. Note: After a new installation, the unit only
reaches its full biological cleaning effect after a few weeks. The full effect on bacteria is only reached as from an operating
temperature of + 10°C.
Note: In the event of overheating, the installed temperature monitor switches the UVC lamp off automatically, the lamp
automatically switches on again once cooled down. Disconnect the power supply to switch off the unit.
Information about the clear water guarantee
Claims derived from the clear water guarantee require the observance of the following installation instructions.
- Clear water is obtained if fish or stones on the ground can be discerned at a depth of 1.0 m.
- The filter system must be configured in accordance with the OASE selection tables.
- The filter system must have been in operation continuously.
- The UVC lamp must be replaced after 8000 operating hours.
- The filter system must be cleaned at regular intervals.
Maintenance and cleaning
Attention! Always disconnect the power supply prior to starting cleaning and maintenance work!
Adhere to the safety information given above! Check and clean the water outlet into the pond at regular intervals. When
blocked, danger of an operating pressure of more than 0.2 bar. We recommend to clean the foam filters at regular
intervals (e.g. every two weeks), at the latest when the water emerging from the outlet and returned to the pond is cloudy
or dirty (check soiling at the transparent stepped hose nozzle with the green flow indicator flap at the water outlet).
Cleaning of the filter foams with the handle function
Remove the cover cap at the cleaning connection or at the connected drain hose. Slightly pull up the function switch and
set against the stop to „Cleaning“ by turning counter-clockwise. Vigorously pull at the cleaning handle and "pump" several
times; in this manner the foam filters are mechanically cleaned. Push the cleaning handle down to the stop on the cover
(the two O rings tangibly engage). The filter will now be rinsed clean. As soon as only clean water is visible in the
transparent stepped hose nozzle at the cleaning connection, pull the function switch slightly up and set against the stop
to „Filter“ by turning counter-clockwise. Firmly screw on the cover cap with the flat sealing ring inserted. Check the water
flow into the pond at the green flow indicator flap at the water outlet.
Cleaning the foam filters by washing out
If necessary, wash out or replace the foam filters. Do not use chemical cleaning agents. Disconnect the power supply,
switch off the pump and secure against unintentional switching on again. Disconnect all hoses by turning off the union nuts,
remove the clamping ring. For this purpose, pull the safety latch back, push the closing hook inwards, and open the
clamping ring. Remove the lid including the foam filter package, turn upside down and place on a clean surface ensuring
that the foam filters including the filter disk are facing up. The foam filters could collapse as a result of mechanical stress
and normal ageing. Replace the foam filters if they rest on the bottom filter disk without gaps and when the wear mark of
the top disk is full visible (7). Unscrew the top filter disk by removing the two screws, pull off foam filters and clean thoroughly
in a bucket of pond water by vigorously compressing. Remove the bottom filter disk, thoroughly spray clean container, lid
with meshed tube, both filter disks and clamping ring. Lift off the bypass valve and clean the comb of the UVC (9). Push a
filter disk including collar and the cleaning rods upward and onto the meshed tube, alternately fit foam filters (starting with
a large blue foam filter, followed by a small red foam filter) such that the cleaning rods lie in both cut-outs of the large cavity
in the foam filters. Place the filter disk with the collar facing down and screw fit flush with the cleaning rods using the two
screws. Important: When the cleaning rods can be pushed through the holes in the filter disk, turn the filter disk through 90°
to the other hole pattern. Ensure that the meshed tube fits completely in the collar diameter. Place the cover sealing ring
on the upper container rim (10), press the lid including the foam filter package onto the container. Place the clamping ring
on the container and cover rim (do not pinch the power cable!), press on the cover, allow the closure to engage, push in
the safety latch (8). Reconnect the hoses, start up the pump first, then connect the power supply of the unit.
Cleaning the quartz glass tube
Adhere to the safety information given above! Disconnect the power supply, switch off the pump and secure against
unintentional switching on again. Undo the four screws of the UVC unit and carefully pull out of the filter cover (11), clean
the quartz glass using a moist cloth, pull out the flat sealing ring and the protection tube (12) and clean with water.
Only
Filtoclear 15000: Clean the protection tube and the reflector plate with water using a soft brush (do not pull out the plate!
Danger of deformation). Check components for damage and replace, if necessary. Reassemble in the reverse order.
Start up the pump first, then connect the unit power supply.
Replacing the UVC lamp
Change the UVC lamp after approx. 8,000 operating hours. Adhere to the safety information given above! Disconnect the
power supply, switch off the pump and secure against unintentional switching on again. Undo the four screws of the UVC
unit and carefully lift the unit out of the filter cover, unscrew the clamping screw by turning counter-clockwise, then remove
the quartz glass tube including the O ring. Pull out and replace the UVC lamp.
Important! Only use lamps the designation and rating of which match the information on the type plate.
Remove the O ring from the quartz glass and clean, clean the quartz glass tube using a moist cloth, pull out the flat sealing
ring and the protection tube, clean with water.
Only Filtoclear 15000: Clean the protection tube and the reflector plate
with water using a soft brush (do not pull out the plate! Danger of deformation).
Check components for damage and replace, if necessary. Reassemble in the reverse order. Start up the pump first, then
connect the unit power supply. The UVC lamp only lights up after the complete re-assembly of the unit.
