Polyvortex is a complementary prefilter to reduce the frequency of maintenance of Beads filters, cartridge filters or sand filters (sand filters in a swimming pool).
In a fish tank, it does not provide a sieve pre-filter.
The patented operating mode and the design of this prefilter make it possible to collect the finest and dense particles by centrifugation.
This prefilter does not retain dirt against a grid or other obstacle: it separates the water from the particles by the principle of centrifugal force.
Because of this, it always operates at full capacity without being obstructed.
The internal part of the apparatus consists of 24 vortices favoring the deposition of the particles.
A transparent container makes it possible to see the deposit of particles separated, a valve makes it the back wash.
This prefilter is positioned after the pump and before the biological filter: the cyclone does not dispense with a prefilter with a grid that is essential for bead filtration!
Advantages
> No moving parts.
> No wear parts.
> Reduced maintenance.
> Reduction of the washing frequency (swimming pool sand filter)
> Extends the life of the filter cartridges.
SuperSieve pre-filter cover, models to choose from: Supersieve Medium / Large OR SuperSieve XL
Filter Screen Cleaner quickly and safely removes the EPS (oily) bacterial layer from your filter screen or drum strainer screen so that the flow becomes optimal again.
