Pump capacity—400 gallons per hour with one-foot head.
Filtering capacity will vary with the length and size of hose attached and the amount of diatom powder used. Standard
units average between 300 and 350 gallons per hour starting flow.
It is important for the user to understand the difference in the size of the "parasites" which are harmful to fish and the
much smaller " bacteria" which can be very beneficial to the aquarium. "Bacteria" are generally not considered to be free
swimmers and reside mostly in and on the bottom material. The Diatom is effective only on free swimming or floating particles
larger than one micron in size. When using the Diatom as a treatment by continuous filtration, you should take care not to
"overwork" or tire the fish by too much current over a long period of time. Our starter recharge control valve (part P-29) allows
for maximum filtration with very good control over outlet flow.
Is guaranteed against original defects in material and workmanship for a period of six months. We do not
authorize dealers to make adjustments other than the sale of replacement parts. In the event that the
unit fails to operate properly, return to factory with original sales slip and $8.50 to cover the cost of
postage and handling. If, after factory inspection, it is found that the unit has been abused, or other than
20 wt. Motor oil has been used; you will be notified as to the cost of repair. You can service and maintain
this unit for many years. Refer to the Service Instruction and Parts List.
If MAJOR REPAIRS ARE REQUIRED, SEND ONLY THE PUMP ASSEMBLY TO THE
FACTORY, DO NOT SEND JAR-HOSES-BAG-ETC.
