FUNCTION
The AEM Easy Drum is a low maintenance pre-lter system that provides healthy, clear water, without the user
having to perform daily maintenance. The sophisticated system comes standard with an Amalgam UV-C lamp.
The built-in UV-C Module ensures crystal clear water. The sophisticated design and high quality materials result
in high intensity UV-C radiation with a wavelength of exactly 253.7 nm. The high dose of irradiation kills almost all
bacteria, viruses and fungi and thus provides clear, clean water. The UV-C radiation also keeps the screen panel free
of both biolm and algae growth. This results in optimum performance for clean, healthy water!
With its intelligent electronics the device provides ample warning when the UV-C lamp is no longer producing
enough radiation and therefore needs to be replaced. So you always have a perfectly working unit!
WARNING! Read the entire manual before use/installation of the system!
SAFETY AND INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
• See Technical specications for the required mains voltage and current type.
• The device may only be connected to an electrical installation that meets the legal standards. A residual-current
device (30 mA) and earthed wall socket are required. If in doubt, consult a qualied installer.
• Both the Drum Filter and the control box must be installed in a dry, sheltered place. Not in direct sunlight.
• Keep the power plug free from moisture. Prevent water from running along the power lead into the socket.
(See gure 3 for looping of the power lead).
• The device is suitable for fresh water.
• The device is suitable for water temperatures of 4 to 40 °C. If exposed to temperatures outside these limits, the
device must be fully isolated from the water circuit.
• Before commissioning, check the entire device, mains lead and plug for damage. If damage is found, the device
may not be used. Have the damage assessed by the dealer.
• The device may only be switched on when there is sucient water ow.
• Never look directly into the lamp, to prevent any damage to eyes and skin. (The system indicates when replace-
ment of the lamp is desirable).
• When opening the lid/maintenance cover the power to the device/control box must always be switched o.
Warning! The UV-C lamp may still be hot up to ten minutes aer it is switched o.
INSTALLING HIGH PRESSURE PUMP; SEE FIGURE 1
It is important, however, that high-pressure PVC is used for this purpose. The pump generates a pressure of 3 bar.
Pressure peaks of 4 bar may occur during start-up. Therefore do not use sewer & drain PVC.
It is also very important that your Drum Filter is placed at water level. The right point of the water level is shown
in the ow chart on p. 5 The high-pressure pump itself must be placed in a moisture-free location below the water
level.
Never place the high pressure pump directly on the lter oor.
TIP: Place a ball valve between the output (A) and the high pressure pump (B).
1. Place a tee at the output (A) of the lter. Output (A1) of the tee is for the high pressure pump (B). The other (A2)
serves as a passage to the biological lter or pond pump.
2. Connect the line from the output (A) of the tee to the high-pressure pump (B) and then connect the piping of the
high pressure pump (B) to the spray tube (D).
