AQUAFORTE ULTRAFLEECE PROFESSIONAL BELTFILTER code 828<br />
The first affordable professional beltfilter. A new standard in filtration! A very professional filter, for the<br />
best mechanical filtration, with virtually no <strong>maintenance</strong>! The UltraFleece filters use an industrial quality<br />
filter membrane on a roll. This makes it possible to remove waste parts up to 20 micron!<br />
Process:<br />
The water enters the filter through a pump fed <strong>construction</strong>. The water will run through the membrane (1) where waste parts, parasites,<br />
eggs, algae, plant remains, fish waste, etc. will be collected. On the membrane arises a so called "filter cake" (accumulation of waste)<br />
which helps to improve the filtration again. During the increase of this filter cake less water can run through which increases the water<br />
level in the filter. The large hydrostatic pressure which pushes the water through the already polluted membrane ensure that<br />
the UltraFleece can sieve waste parts up to 20 micron. When the maximum water level has been reached, the level switch (7) will<br />
activate the conveyor-belt (5) underneath the membrane and the polluted membrane will be moved to the designated collection area<br />
(6). A slightly increasing 30º angle guarantees the waste to remain on the membrane and not to be flushed away by the water. A new<br />
part of membrane is transported from the roll which enables it to let the optimal filtered water through. As the water falls through the<br />
membrane into the pump/bio-chamber it will also be enriched with oxygen. The water enters a lower bio chamber/pump chamber from<br />
where the water can go back to the pond or to the next biological filter. Because of the falling water bio rings in the bio chamber can be<br />
moved without the use of an extra air pump. Because of the thorough cleaning of the membrane the bio chamber does not require<br />
cleaning <strong>maintenance</strong>. The UltraFleece reduces the <strong>maintenance</strong> of your pond enormously and gives you an optimal water quality! As<br />
a result of this you can make great savings on the use of medication, water treatment supplements, large water changes and<br />
electricity! The usage of membrane rolls is highly dependant on factors like pond size, fish load, daily amount of food etc. An average<br />
usage for Koi ponds of 40.000 liter with 20 large Koi which get high protein food is between 8 and 15 rolls a year.<br />
Benefits:<br />
- Obvious improvement of the water quality.<br />
- No cleaning <strong>maintenance</strong>, therefore no loss of bio-activity.<br />
- Decreases the load on the biological filter.<br />
- It is possible to use the membrane filter as a pre-filter in existing filter-systems.<br />
- Manufactured from Polypropylene. Compact dimensions.<br />
- Silent 24 volt motor which will only cost a few pounds on electricity per year!<br />
- The only <strong>maintenance</strong> is the replacement of the membrane roll.<br />
BioBox. The PE bio-filterbox fits exactly underneath an UltraFleece, when placed in a 600 litre fish tank (SB930). The BioBox is<br />
equipped with three screens on which you can place (porous) biomedia, therefore producing a partial “trickle-filter” effect from the<br />
section that is above the water surface plus a submerged filter.<br />
1. Unfiltered pond water<br />
2. Filtered water trickles down<br />
3. Bio-chamber / pump-chamber<br />
4. Filter-membrane roll<br />
5. Conveyor-belt<br />
6. Area for polluted membrane<br />
7. Level indicator<br />
