Turbo Cleaner - Protein Extractor with Pre-Strainer
Protein skimmers remove any surplus proteins, carbohydrates and other organic compounds to help ensure clear clean pond water. They deliver large volumes of extra oxygen into the water. Froth on the surface of your pond is now history and you can enjoy clear water the whole year round. A primary requirement for strong healthy fish.
How it works:
The basics of the devices operation is that pumped water (via a dedicated pump) passes under pressure through a venturi unit, where the input of air creates a mass of air bubbles which attract and contain contaminants within the water.
These bubbles burst within the central inner chamber of the tank and the extracted contaminants are passed through gravity along a pipe to the 320mm dia external waste catchment bowl. The remaining water in the tank is returned to the pond. Processes of this type cannot be classified as mechanical or biological when they are neither, however they do contribute to reducing nitrite levels.
To cater for various pump flow rates two control valves are provided to adjust both the water level within the tank, and the amount of flow generating the oxygen input.
Pumps to use:
It is recommended that pumps with a pumping capacity of a minimum of 4,500 lph should be used and that will have enough head pressure to power a Venturi.
- Suitable for ponds up to 8,000 gallons (36,000 litres)
- 600mm dia x 350mm high.
- Pipe inlet size 40mm (1.5") outlet 50mm (2")
