Technical Data - Deltec TC 2000ix Operating Instruction

Ozone is an extremely aggressive gas which - if not used properly - can damage one's
health. For this reason, ozone should never be breathed in directly.
In addition, at high doses ozone can damage the skimmer.
The dosing of ozone must be set so that no free ozone can be discerned on the skimmer lid.
Deltec skimmers can be operated with between 20 and 50 mg/hours of ozone per pump. An
ozone-resistant T-piece is placed in the air hose above the skimmer pump. The free end of
the T-piece is connected to the ozonizer by means of an ozone-resistant hose. The air valve
of the skimmer must be throttled until air is independently sucked through the ozonizer.
Safety information:
The maximum ozone quantity of 50mg/hour per pump must not be exceeded.
-
The air passage can be reduced as a result of dust deposits in the ozonizer. This can
-
result in an increase in the water level in the skimmer, which - in extreme cases - can
overflow. To avoid this, check the ozonizer regularly to make sure that there are no
deposits of dust. If necessary, clean it.
Never breathe in free ozone.
-
The ozonizer may not be directly connected to the air valve or silencer.
-
In order to avoid water damage, the ozonizer must be placed high enough to ensure
-
that no water can penetrate it when the skimmer pump is switched off.
If the skimmer is used with new water it is common to find an excessive quantity of small
bubbles and often the skimmer cup fills with a clear liquid. This is due to the high surface
tension of the new water which prevents the bubbles from bursting. Once the water
matures this effect will go away but it can take up to 2-3 weeks. The effect is different on
different salt brands and is often dependant on levels of conditioning agents added to the
salt. Once these are skimmed out then the skimmer will act normally.
Heavier feeding in the initial stages will give the chemically pure water something to react
with and allow it to mature into proper aquarium salt water rather than the initial chemical
soup which is new salt water.
