BioPRO
The Ultimate Biological Filter |
|
|
|
|
| Each
bioPRO features our unique Bio Cell bio media; specifically
designed for biofiltration. This neutrally buoyant, “high
impact” polystyrene media provides a large amount of surface
area that is required for healthy colonies of aerobic nitrifying
bacteria. Bio Cell’s design combine self-cleaning with
protected surface area, enhancing and protecting nitrifying
bacteria growth. The result: a biological filter specifically
engineered to deliver robust biofiltration…easy to install…easy
to operate! |

Features:
Optimum
Filtering & Backwash
bioPRO’s are biological filters…not mechanical
filters and must be positioned
after a solid waste capturing filter (pre-filters/ surface
skimmer boxes). The heart of the bioPRO Filter is its
Bio Cell filter media that after initial start-up (4-6
weeks) becomes home to colonies of “aerobic”
nitrifying bacteria.
While
a bioPRO is not a mechanical filter, it will trap solid
waste that must be flushed from the filter. The key
here is to keep the media
as free of rotting solid waste as possible and therefore
routine cleaning (bi-weekly) is essential. To backwash,
simply shut the
pump off, switch the multi-port valve to backwash, re-start
the pump and watch
the solids flush from the filter.

This
diagram shows a complete bioPRO installation that
includes a surface-skimmer, external pump, bioPRO
Filter and SMART UV. The plumbing manifold (using
3-way true-union ball valves) create a water by-pass;
allowing precise flow control to the SMART UV. |
