The device you purchased was manufactured in conformity with all safety standards currently in force on the area of European Union. For long lasting and safe usage please read the safety conditions below:
ASAP filter can be installed in three ways depending on the operation type. It is recommended to install a prefilter in form of a sponge cartridge on the intake strainer (index 101235) (Notice! The prefilter is not included in the set and can be purchased separately):
Fig. 2 – intake pump is installed inside the tank onto its wall and performs the function of a pump supplying the filter with water. That solution is recommended for fish tanks.
Fig. 3 – intake pump is installed outside of the tank lower than the aquarium water level and performs the function of a flow pump. The solution is recommended for standard fish tanks. In that case it is crucial to prime the pump by sucking the water in the intake hose prior to starting the pump.
Fig. 4 – intake pump is installed inside the tank to its bottom and performs the function of a pump supplying the filter with water. That solution is recommended for aquariums with low water level.
Note! Before the first use of the filter, the filter bowl should be rinsed. Fill the bowl filter with tap water and then empty it. Repeat the operation three times in a row. This will prevent dust from zeolite and ceramic cartridges from getting into the aquarium.
The intake pump requires regular cleaning of the impeller (fig. 5b) in order to remove potential mechanical impurities from the impeller chamber. To perform this action after disconnecting the device from power outlet the pump cover (fig. 5a) should be twisted off with an anticlockwise movement, then the impeller cover should be removed. After removing the impeller, it should be cleaned together with the impeller chamber using a soft brush. In case of the pump operating outside of the tank (fig. 3) as a flow pump it is recommended to regularly maintain the gasket placed under the impeller cover by its thorough cleaning and lubricating with technical vaseline. In order to ensure proper operation of the filter, the filter tank (product number 113421) should be replaced at least every 6-9 months.
Filter capacity can be adjusted by turning the filter cover in a counterclockwise direction (Fig. 6) in the range between 0 and 40 degrees. Turning the control valve for a full 40 degrees will cut off water supply to the filter for a short time, so that the user can clean the filter media or replace the filter media container with a new one without the need to disconnect the pump from the mains. During this time, water will circulate through by-pass ducts.
Attention! In order to ensure continuous and trouble-free operation of the filter it is recommended that the seal under the cover of the feeding pump be periodically replaced. If necessary, the impeller of the feeding pump (part number 110911) can also be replaced.
