The filter can be simply connected. There are 4 types of pressure filters to be had:
l Clear Control 25 net filter content of ca. 25 l suitable for ponds of up to 10,000 l
l Clear Control 50 net filter content of ca. 50 l suitable for ponds of up to 20,000 l
l Clear Control 75 net filter content of ca. 75 l suitable for ponds of up to 30,000 l
l Clear Control 100 net filter content of ca. 100 l suitable for ponds of up to 60,000 l
Except for the content and volume the filters are equal.
INSTALLATION
The Clear Control 25, 50 and 75 are supplied complete with lava stone, high active
filter carbon and japanese matting. The Clear Control 100 is equipped with a cas-
sette filled with zeolite filter material. Carefully rinse the filter materials prior to use.
In the small compartment a UV-C Unit and/or Pond Heater can be mounted (no filter
materials). UV-C radiation is dangerous! Avoid exposure to the eyes and the skin
at all times. Place the UV-C ballast in an area protected against rain and sun.
Place the cover in the right position on the filter, taking care that the rubber ring (4)
has been fitted into the corresponding groove and close the filter, using the fasten-
ing clamp and bolt (3). If the filter has been mounted correctly, it will be water tight
up to a pressure of 1,5 bar. The filter is only intended for filtering pond water, not
warmer than 35°C. The filter cannot be used in combination with oil, petrol or
lubricants. The filter is not frost proof. Switch off the filter in the winter and store it
for the winter time. If you want to use the filter in winter time then the installation
of a Pond Heater is necessary (see further in the instructions).
CONNECTING THE PUMP
The filter has 3 connections: the pump inlet (A), the connection to the pond (B) and a
connection for rinsing and emptying the pond (C). Connect the pump to the filter
with a flexible reinforced hose and fasten the hose with a locking clamp. Please bear
in mind that the pump may have a pressure of max. 1,5 bar, being similar to an
elevating height of 10 m. The recommended pumps are:
l Clear Control 25 Green Line 5000
l Clear Control 50 Green Line 8000
l Clear Control 75 Green Line 12500
l Clear Control 100 Green Line 15000 or 20000
The hose swivels have quick release couplings which facilitate the mounting
of hoses. The Clear Control 100 can also be used in combination with 50 mm PVC
connections. Once the filter has been connected and closed, it is ready for use.
SAFETY REGULATIONS
UV-C radiation is dangerous! Avoid exposure to the eyes and skin at all times. Exclu-
sively inspect the functioning of the lamp through the transparent screw cap. Expo-
sure to harmful UV-C radiation is possible if the device is used wrongly or damaged.
If the apparatus or its flex should become damaged, stop using the UV-C unit. Always
install the splashproof unit in the special compartment of the filter at the place of
the screw cap. Please be sure that it is out of the reach of children. Place the ballast in a
area protected against the sun and rain. Exclusively use grounded sockets with
closing cover. Prevent the plug and the receptacle form getting moist. Please provide
a good quality grounded connection to the electric mains and use an earth leakage
circuit breaker rated 30 mA. If the flow of the water stagnates, for example as a result
of blockage of a defective pump, the UV-C lamp should be switched off at once.
