necessary to perform the back flush operation.
NOTE
: All pressure filters restrict the flow from your pump. Expect about a 45% reduction in the water
flow through the filter.
DO NOT

feature (within the coble length of the filter).
NEVER
operate the filter with integrated UVC with water pressure greater than 0.2bar/2mwh. The
height difference between the filter lid and the pressure-free outlet point can be 2m max. The maximum
delivery of the pump being used must not exceed 0.5bar/5mhw. Only operate the filter with pressure
hoses that are approved for at least 0.2bar. Check and clean the water outlet to the pond on a regular
basis.
