Maintenance of the filter
• Always disconnect from the mains supply before carrying out any maintenance!
• Weekly check the Flow Indicator (D-c) if the water flow is sufficient, if the flow decreases you
need to clean the filter. Clean the filter by using the Auto Clean Wash (backwash). After fist
installation or if your pond is heavily polluted, it may be neccesary to flush through the filter daily
by using the Auto Clean Wash.
• Remove the end cap of the CLEAN exit. Install the suplied hose connection on to the CLEAN exit
and attach a pond hose (E-a). Turn the Auto Clean Wash knob a quater counter clockwise (E-b).
The pond pump will flush the water in the opposite direction, cleaning the filter sponge. You can use
this water to irrigate your garden. After cleaning, ALWAYS reinstall the end cap at the CLEAN exit.
• A optional BackWash Valve is available at your SuperFish dealer, this replaces the end cap on the
CLEAN exit and makes the flushing of the water more easily (BackWash Valve TopClear 5000 art.
06020717, BackWash Valve TopClear 10/15/18000 art. 06020719).
• Yearly the filter needs general maintenance, unplug the Pond pump and TopClear filter from the
mains. Remove the pond hoses from the filter and open the clamps. After the first clamp, open
the opposite clamp, etc. (F-a). Then take the lid of the filter.
• Take out the filter sponge and rinse with clean tap water. Replace the filter sponge yearly or more
often if needed (F-b).
• Take out the clapboard (not applicable with the TopClear 5000) and rinse with tap water.
• Clean the Bio-Balls in a bucket filled with pond water to maintain bacteria life. Do not use tap
water!
• Remove the rubber sealant from the filter housing, check the seal for damage. Replace, after
cleaning or replacement, the sealant back in the upper part of the housing.
• After cleaning, replace the lid in the same position as before and close the clamps properly.
Maintenance of the UVC-unit
• Check monthly if UV lamp is lit through the control window on the cover (D-b).
• Always disconnect from the mains supply before carrying out any maintenance!
• The UVC device and quartz glass should be cleaned yearly or more often if algae growth increases!
• The lamp is hot, wait 10 minutes after switch off before opening the unit.
• Remove the protective cover of the UVC by pulling it of the filter cover (G-a).
• Slide the red switch lock to unlock the unit head and housing (G-b).
• Turn the unit head counter clockwise against the stop, then carefully pull it out of the housing (G-c).
• Loosen the screw (H-a).
• Screw off the union nut, pull off the quartz glass including the O ring by a slight rotary movement
(H-b). Clean the quartz glass outer face with SuperFish UVC Clean carefully and check for damage.
• Replace the UV-lamp and the quartz glass if neccessairy (Recycle lamp and glass!).
• Insert the lamp, then put into the light-shelter ring, flat seals and the UV Tube clip respectively (J).
• Place the unit head with the fitted UV lamp and quartz glass into the housing. Turn it clockwise up
to the stop and slide the red switch lock to the housing.
• To avoid UVC overheating, unplug the filter from mains when no water is flowing through the
filter.
• In the winter season, when the system is not used, the TopClear filter should be removed to avoid
the risk of freezing.
• The UV-lamp should be replaced yearly. Although the lamp may still burn, it no longer emits
enough UV radiation (maximum 8000 operating hours).
