The pump is electrically operated and pumps the cleaning liquid through the connecting tube to the
3-way ball valve. Depending on its position the cleaner can either be propelled to the sink via the tube
with the brush or via the versatile jointed hose. The work piece is located in the interior of the table
the container. Microorganisms then break down the oil and fat impurities.

3.2 Intended Use
* The used micro-organisms are non-pathogen bacteria of group 1 acc. to Directive 2000/54/EC.
(Group 1 means that they are unlikely to cause human disease.)
The Bio-Circle parts washer is an environmentally
clean machine parts, motors, casings or other parts
covered in oil and grease with the aid of Bio-Circle

5. Start Up
After removing the packaging, check the casing and control for any possible transport damage.
Should any transport damage be detected, do not connect the apparatus to the mains. Instead, report
the damage to the carrier and to CB Chemie und Biotechnologie GmbH. The original packaging
must be retained. Place the unit in a dry and stable place of your choice.
The ground must be level. If it is necessary level the ground out with suitable material.
Connect the unit to the electricity supply.

switch again. The pump will stop automatically after one hour.
3. If needed, press the ON/OFF switch for 3 seconds to set unit into standby mode.
Attention: The circuit board is still energized.
4. When solution level falls below minimum (60 liters), the display indicates „LO”.
Never turn off the Bio-Circle unit unless for servicing or longer periods of non-use (more

6. Operation
any brushes prior to cleaning; this will prevent grease and dirt from sticking to the surfaces.
The maximum load of 250 kg must not be exceeded!
Depending on the positioning of the 3-way ball valve, cleaning can occur via:
Washing by means of a versatile jointed hose with nozzle
Note: In centre position both outlets are open.
Note: Any parts susceptible to oxidation should not be left in the sink after cleaning.
As with all parts cleaners, excess grease and oil should be disposed of prior to washing. Do
not use this unit as a waste dump. Do not introduce
coolant, chlorinated, acidic or alkaline solutions into this system. Do not add water.
Activate the pump with the help of the on/off switch with the cleaning symbol.
After the cleaning process has ended ON/OFF switch off the pump again.

Note:
To re-start press the ON/OFF switch.
Depending on the initial temperature of the liquid, the heating process can take approx. 2,5 hours.
The temperature is set by the factory to maintain the solution at 41°C.
Once the correct temperature has been reached, the unit is ready for use.
The optimal temperature for the activity of micro-organisms and therefore for the breakdown of oil
is approximately 41°C. Therefore leave the apparatus switched on all the time.
For optimal activity of microorganisms and thus of the breakdown of oil, it is essential that the
micro-organisms have a constant supply of oxygen. This is why an air sprinkler is permanently
switched on, which guarantees the required oxygen supply for the microorganisms. If the unit is
switched off, or fails because of a defect, the result is that the microorganisms become inactive.

care that the o-ring sits correctly.
Assembly instructions
1. Assembling filter holding plate with the 4 lens head screw on the filter body.
2. Filter has to be fixed with 2 lens head screws in the intended, deepened sites on the basic part.
3. Attend to central adjustment of the gland (see picture below).
4. Connecting tube has to be disconnected at the exit- and entry points of the filter.
5. Push the tube on the tube mandrel and the tube with hose clamps.
Periodic maintenance
It is recommended that your Bio-Circle is inspected and cleaned at least once a year to perform at
the bottom of the tank over time, which can negatively affect the bioremediation activity.
To facilitate the removal of the sludge turn off the unit and unplug it. Open the sink and empty the unit
from all the cleaning solution using a hand pump until the sludge becomes visible. If cleaning solution
is still cleaning well, save it for re-use. Remove the sludge and clean the tank walls and pumps.
If a drain valve (optional accessories) is installed, connect a hose to drain valve and fully open the
valve, wait a few seconds and then close the valve. Repeat these steps 3 times to remove most
temperature of 41°C before cleaning parts. Visually inspect pumps, tubing and connections. Replace
parts that show excessive wear.
