Congratulations on purchasing this high-quality CO2 fertilizer system from DENNERLE.
If used properly and treated with due care, this set will provide a simple, convenient and reliable means of supplying your aquarium with CO2, the most important
fertilizer for aquarium plants - thus ensuring magnificent plant growth. CO2 also serves to establish an ideal pH value for fish and plants, in the slightly
acidic to neutral range. DENNERLE wishes you hours of fun with your aquarium!
Safety rules for carbon dioxide (CO2) cylinders
• Use only to supply CO2 to aquaria.
• CO2 cylinders are highly pressurized. The following instructions should therefore be observed:
• Do not throw CO2 cylinders. Store in cool conditions. Protect from sunlight and temperatures of over 50 °C.
• Use only when fitted with suitable pressure reducers for reusable CO2 cylinders with W21.8 x 1/14" connecting thread, e.g. DENNERLE pressure
reducer models Profi 2000, Compact, Professional and Exclusive.
• Cylinders must always be in an upright position when supplying CO2. Secure cylinders to prevent them from falling over.
• Do not open CO2 cylinders by force.
• Do not empty CO2 cylinders completely. Refill only at authorised CO2 filling stations. Please note: Tare weight without cage. Remove cage before
refilling.
• CO2 gas is heavier than air and has a suffocating effect in high concentrations.
• Therefore, avoid breathing in CO2 gas.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• Store CO2 cylinders in well ventilated areas and not in cellars.
• Please note the following when transporting individual cylinders in vehicles: Secure to prevent from sliding and rolling around, as the valve may
otherwise incur damage and CO2 gas may escape. Ensure adequate ventilation by means of an open window, by switching on the blower, etc.
How the CO2 fertilizer system
Exclusive works
The CO2 pressure reducer Exclusive reduces the cylinder pressure to an
operating pressure which the user can set in line with practical requirements.
The precision-mechanism needle valve enables highly exact and
convenient CO2 dosage. CO2 dosage is controlled with the CO2 bubble
counter Exact.
The CO2 is transported to the aquarium via the special leak-proof
Softflex CO2 hose. The CO2 Cyclo Turbo XL ensures highly effective
dissolving of the CO2 in the aquarium water. A special CO2 check valve
protects the valuable pressure reducer from any backflowing water. The
CO2 content in the aquarium water can be read directly by means of the
CO2 long-term test Correct.
The reusable 2.000 g CO2 cylinder is particularly practical, supplying
even large aquaria with CO2 over a long period before it needs replacing.

1. Connect the Pressure Reducer
• Close the needle valve by turning in anticlockwise
direction (if it is not yet closed).
IMPORTANT: Tighten only gently!
�
• Fit pressure reducer to CO2 cylinder with
coupling ring. Tighten coupling ring with
30 mm spanner. � Ensure that the
washer is fitted correctly and that the
sealing surfaces are clean!
IMPORTANT: Cylinders must always be in
an upright position when supplying CO2.
Secure cylinders to prevent them from
falling over.
2. Fit check valve in CO2 hose
• Using a strong pair of scissors, cut 2 pieces
of 5 cm in length from the CO2 hose,
ensuring that the cut is straight. �
• Unscrew both coupling rings from the
CO2 check valve.
• Fit coupling rings to the ends of the
�
�
�
�
�
�
�
�
hoses and slide hoses as far as they will
go onto the hose connectors of the
check valve. TIP: Wet hose connectors
beforehand - it will then be easier to
slide on the hoses.
• Screw coupling rings tight. �
3. Connect the CO2 hose to the
Pressure Reducer
• Connect hose with check valve to the
needle valve of the pressure reducer and
secure with coupling ring. � IMPOR-
TANT: The arrow on the check valve must
point in the CO2 flow direction!
4. Connect the Bubble Counter
• Open the two sealing tabs and remove
bubble counter from mounting bracket.
• Insert strap through the two slots on the
mounting bracket with the soft side
facing outwards and attach mounting
bracket to CO2 cylinder. �
Other possible methods of attachment:
(1) on the front pane of the aquarium
by means of the two suction clips or (2)
on the wall or in the base cabinet by
means of screws (not included in scope
of delivery). Remove the suction clips
and nipples for this purpose.
• Pour tap water into bubble counter until
it is 3/4 full. �
• Unscrew coupling rings from bubble
counter and fit to the ends of the hoses.
Slide the hose coming from the pressure
reducer onto the hose connector for
connection to the bubble counter and
the hose leading to the aquarium onto
the other hose connector. Retighten
coupling rings. �
• Click bubble counter into place on
mounting bracket and close sealing
tabs. �
5. Connect CO2 Cyclo Turbo XL
• Rinse Cyclo Turbo XL with warm tap
water. Do not use any cleaning agents!
�
• Choose a suitable point in the aquarium
at which to attach the diffusor.
The selected location should not be too
exposed to light, in order to prevent
algae formation.
• Fit CO2 supply hose to hose connector
(wet connector beforehand!). �
