System I Pressure Filter

System I Pressure Filter



The System One is a positive pressure filter using Diatomaceous Earth as a filtering medium. This allows removal of particles, as small as one micron in size, even cleaning out bacteria harmful to fish. The System One has a positive pressure of 3psi and large flow capacity of 300gph.

System One is a maintenance filter and is designed to run approximately 4 hours at a time. After 4 hours, turn off the unit for approximately 45 minutes to allow the unit to cool. After the cooling period the unit is ready for use again.

Instructions:
Charging:
With the pump securely mounted on the tank, remove the glass jar. Place about 1/2 cup of diatomaceous earth or 3/4 cup for exceptionally dirty tanks to the water in the jar and mix. Do not allow the diatomaceous earth to stay on the edge of the jar as this will damage the jar seal. Replace the jar under the pump body. It is recommended that you use only System One diatomaceous earth.
Recharging Unit:

Turn the unit off and let it set about ten seconds. This allows the earth to settle in the jar. Remove the jar slowly with left hand under the bottom of the jar. Lower the jar about halfway down the filter element. With your right hand, loosen the element by turning with a slight downward pressure. Carry the jar and element to the area for cleaning. Wash out the jar and rinse the cartridge thoroughly with hot water. The cartridge may be scrubbed if necessary. The DE Cartridge can be reused. The duration of the cartridge is determined by the usage. The System One Diatomaceous Earth can be rotated in solution and used two or three times depending on usage.

Specifications:
The Filter includes a DE Cartridge and enough Diatom Powder for one charge.

Size:
Filter: 8" wide x 8" deep x 9" high.
Plastic Jar: 4" diameter x 7" high.
DE Cartridge: 2 1/2" Diameter x 5" high.

Warranty:
1 Year Warranty.
