Summary

General Aspects

Device Overview and Suitability

Overview of the Osmolator® nano, its function, and suitability for small aquariums.

User Safety and Supervision

Guidelines for safe use by individuals with limited abilities, emphasizing supervision.

Safety Instructions

Indoor Use and Environment

Ensure device is used indoors and away from heat sources; maintain dry, ventilated conditions.

Cable and Sensor Protection

Avoid bending cables and placing magnets near the sensor to prevent malfunction.

Pump Operation and Maintenance

Do not run pump dry; disconnect power for maintenance; repair damaged cables via service center.

Connections and Usage Restrictions

Avoid external connections and switch off during water changes; store manual safely.

Magnet Holder Safety

Handling Strong Magnets

Handle strong magnets with care, keep away from children, avoid pinching fingers between parts.

Magnetic Interference and Heat

Keep sensitive items and metal away from magnets; avoid exceeding 50°C to preserve magnetic strength.

TUNZE Power Supply Safety

Outdoor Use and Placement

Power supplies are not for outdoor use; place them away from the aquarium to prevent water damage.

Electrical Safety and Connections

Operate only with RCD (max 30mA); do not repair cables; no connection to third-party devices.

Environmental and Operating Conditions

Position in dry, ventilated areas, away from heat sources; observe operating temperature and humidity limits.

Sensor Preparation

Mounting the Sensor

Mount the sensor into its housing and then into the magnet holder, ensuring a secure fit.

Magnet Holder Buffers

Attach self-adhesive elastic buffers to the magnet holder halves, using 4 per part.

Sensor Location Selection

Aquarium Rim Placement

Mount sensor on aquarium rim (up to 10mm glass), ensuring glass is clean and dry.

Cabinet Filter System Placement

Install in the last filter chamber with return pump in cabinet filter systems; avoid water inlet/outlet areas.

Seawater Recommendation

For seawater, route Kalkwasser intake directly into the aquarium, not the filter box.

Feed Hose Attachment

Securing the Feed Hose

Secure the feed hose to the mounting clamp using hose clamp, screw, and nut; ensure a tight fit.

Preventing Backflow and Filter Tank Entry

Attach hose above water level to prevent backflow; direct filter tank entry is allowed if storage level is lower.

Connections and Commissioning

Connecting Pump and Controller

Connect the dosing pump and controller cables to the terminal; wire polarity does not matter.

Hose and Pump Placement

Insert hose into pump, place pump vertically in tank, and route hose without kinks for good flow.

Final Connections and Checks

Connect power supply to controller, check functionality; do not replace pump with a switched socket outlet.

Sensor Care and Maintenance

Sensor Mounting and Cleaning Intervals

Mount sensor with black ring down and cord up; clean every 6 months for heavily stocked tanks.

Cleaning Agents and Functional Check

Use vinegar for cleaning; check function by lifting float, pump should cycle and then stop.

Metering Quantity and Time Limits

Automatic Dosing Time Limit

The device stops the pump after 2 minutes of continuous operation to prevent aquarium overflow.

Operation After Time Limit;Empty Reservoir

Reset by power cycle; pulses indicate empty reservoir and need for refill.

Flow Rate and Refill Volume

Conveying Height vs. Refill Volume

Details refilled volumes based on conveying height (0.80m to 1.30m).

Hose Specification and Limitations

Values are for original 2m hose; shorter hoses yield higher metering amounts.

Safety Volumes and Overflow Prevention

Storage Tank Level vs. Aquarium Level

Storage tank water level must be below aquarium/filter tank level to prevent siphoning.

Aquarium Capacity for Refill

Aquarium must have enough capacity for refilled water; examples show water level increase based on surface area.

Sensor Variance and Aquarium Size

Sensor Switching Variance Impact

The sensor's switching variance (up to 1mm) can affect the water level increase.

Large Aquariums and Metering Time

For larger aquariums (>200L), the maximum dosing time may be insufficient for safe refilling.

Replacing the Sensor

Detaching Sensor Housing

Detach the sensor housing from the magnet by pulling firmly.

Replacing Sensor and Controller

Unscrew sensor nut, slide sensor out, unplug connector from controller, and replace with new sensor.
