FLUID ART TURBO VORTEX SOLIDS SEPARATOR PREFILTER code 827<br />
The Turbo Vortex is the ideal pre-filter in a closed circuit system. It requires very little space (height: 125 cm and diameter: 35 cm) and<br />
is as effective as a large vortex. Maximum flow rate: 25m³/h.<br />
Filtration: pond water enters the TurboVortex in A and the<br />
special <strong>construction</strong> of the unit creates a circular movement in<br />
the lower part of the vortex (B). This causes the solid waste to<br />
precipitate and collect on the bottom. Floating solids like dead<br />
leaves and algae are stopped by a layer of floating bio balls (C).<br />
Water can exit the vortex only through the perforated tube (D)<br />
to the pump (E).<br />
Backwash: If the 2-way valve is set to "backwash", water is<br />
pumped directly from the pond into the vortex through A.<br />
Water under pressure goes through the perforated tube (B),<br />
the bottom of which is sealed. This forces the water out<br />
sideways against the wall of the TurboVortex so that the bio<br />
balls are washed by the turbulence. Dirty water exits the unit in<br />
C, flushing out any accumulated solids. Waste water is pumped<br />
to the sewer through a pipe fitted with a ball valve.<br />
The TurboVortex can be installed above or below the water<br />
level of the pond, IN FRONT OF a self-priming pump.<br />
Shipped with a 2-way valve as well as several accessories.<br />

MULTI CYCLONE CENTRIFUGAL WATER FILTER code 721<br />
The MultiCyclone is a filtration device that is capable of saving water and reducing filter <strong>maintenance</strong>. The MultiCyclone works on the<br />
basis of centrifugal water filtration. There are no moving parts to wear and tear and no filter media to clean or replace.<br />
How does it work?<br />
Incoming water is guided by a diverter plate so that it enters multiple hydro cyclones tangentially, generating a strong centrifugal effect.<br />
This spins the sediment out to the hydro cyclone’s wall and then spirals it down to the sediment sump, while the cleansed water spirals<br />
upwards. The accumulation of sediment can be visibly monitored through the MultiCyclone’s clear sediment sump. It is cleaned by<br />
simply opening the purge valve. Only 15 litres of water is discharged to clean the unit of sediment.<br />
The MultiCyclone is ideal as a pre-filter to extend the life of your existing filter. The filtration efficiency of the MultiCyclone was tested by<br />
feeding 5 to 80 micron dust particles through the MultiCyclone and analyzing the percentage of dust particles trapped in the sediment<br />
bowl. The laboratory test revealed that the Multi Cyclone was effective in filtering particles sized 40 to 80 microns.<br />
The unit works together with a sand, cartridge, bead or DE filter to polish the water. It allows the installation of finer filtration systems,<br />
such as cartridge filters with finer cartridges and the sand filters with finer filter media. Finer filtration systems can be installed without<br />
the burden of extra <strong>maintenance</strong>. The water ends up clearer with less up keep.<br />
The unit is supplied with both 2”/63mm quick connect unions making this unit ideal for new installations and retrofit market. Minimum<br />
flow is 3m³/h, max. flow is 30m³/h. Max. pressure is 4 bar. The MultiCyclone must be installed after the pump.<br />
