Two 25 l bags of Hel-X biomedia (50 l) are required for operating a Moving Bed Module. Optionally, 75 l
can be used (supplementary kit Order No.: 51060).
How to proceed:
1. Close the slide valve for the DN 75 dirt outlet at the bottom of the container.
2. Check that the entire filter system (pipes and hoses) is complete.
3. Fill the container with water:
Pump fed system: Switch on the filter pump.
Gravity fed system: Open the slide valves (supply and return) of the ProfiClear Premium filter
series to allow the water to flow.
4. Check all pipes, hoses and their connections for leaks.
Expansion seals may leak initially until they have fully expanded on contact with water.
5. Fill the container with Hel-X biomedia.
Ensure that the Hel-X biomedia can move around freely in the container.
It can take several weeks for the Hel-X biomedia to become completely colonised. Uncolonised
Hex-X biomedia tend to float more.
6. Add filter starter BioKick CWS.
7. Fit the container cover.
8. When all filter containers are filled with water, switch on the other electrical units (e.g. filter pumps).
If using filter starters (e.g. OASE BioKick CWS), do not operate any UVC clarifying units for at least
24 hours so as not to disturb the colonisation of the filter media by micro-organisms.

Clean the supply and/or return
Bottom drain, pipe or hose blocked Clean, replace if necessary
Hose kinked Check hose, and replace if necessary
Excessive loss in lines Reduce line length to necessary minimum
Insufficient Hel-X biomedia used Use more Hel-X biomedia if necessary
Unit has only been in operation for a short
time
The full biological cleaning effect is only achieved
after several weeks
The meshed tube has slipped Correct the position of the meshed tube
Defective meshed tube Replace the meshed tube
Aerator rod is blocked Replace the aerator rod
Aerator pump malfunction Check the aerator pump
Hel-X biomedia are not yet fully colonised It takes several weeks for the biomedia to become
colonised by bacteria. Wait for the natural process
to take place.
