“
storm cycle“ – storm for the desedimentation
Just as in nature, and similar to the random current ow the “storm cycle“ serves to perform a desedimentation of the
reef structure in the aquarium. The storm-like current ow is not constantly in operation, but can be programmed for
several times a day or week.
This function is adjustable in the eld “options“. The frequency of the “storm cycle“ can be adjusted from 1 hour (1)
up to 7 days (2).
The “storm cycle“ is based on a xed and precise pump cycle, which controls all four pump outputs for ve minutes
according to the following program:
Pump 1 → 20 seconds
Pump 2 → 20 seconds
Pump 3 → 20 seconds
Pump 4 → 20 seconds
Pumps 1 + 2 → 20 seconds.
Pumps 3 + 4 → 20 seconds.
Pumps 1 + 3 → 20 seconds
Pumps 2 + 4 → 20 seconds
Pumps 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 → 20 seconds
Pumps 1 + 2 → 30 seconds.
Pumps 3 + 4 → 30 seconds
Pump 1 → 10 seconds
Pump 2 → 10 seconds
Pump 3 → 10 seconds
Pump 4 → 10 seconds
Pumps 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 → 20 seconds
Position the pumps in the aquarium in such a manner, that the “storm cycle” is able to cause any water damages!
