EPS Combi Drum Filter CF65 with integrated biochamber + pump chamber

Function

Due to the high demand, the CF drum filter was built with an integrated pump chamber, biochamber and integrated flushing pump. This means that this drum filter has a plug and play system. On request, we can equip the filter with an immersion UVC and a pond pump according to your wishes. The function of the drum filter is to filter polluted water mechanically. Smallest particles are separated from the water by a stainless steel screen RVS 316 of 75 micrometres and led to the outside via a dirt drain. This filtering process is automatically regulated by a control system and monitored by probes. In the event of a malfunction, the filter automatically switches off the circulation and backwash pump. The water level is constantly monitored by probes. The EPS Combi Drum Filter CF65 is made of very high quality PP plastic and is supplied including control, emergency cover switch, manual channel flushing, complete piping from the flushing pump to the flushing channel, level regulator, cover and built-in flushing pump in an unprecedented price/performance ratio.

A pump chamber is directly integrated in these filters. With the 100 mm pipe connections facing inwards, either tube pumps or frequency-controlled pumps can be connected inside. This has the advantage that the pumps do not have to be flanged dry on the outside and the energy (heat) is supplied to the water. It is also better for the pumps because they are always cooled and cannot overheat.

All EPS drum filters are reinforced with a 50/50 U-profile and an inner core of 40/40 4 Kant steel pipe.

The direct drive from the motor to the drum means that there are no wear parts as with conventional drum filters (V-belts, toothed belts or plastic gears).

If the waste water channel should ever become clogged due to strong filamentous algae or leaves, it is no problem to simply dismantle and clean it without having to remove the filter drum or the fabric.

In the integrated biochamber (86 x 97 x 98 cm), a Japanese air hose ( 19 mm ) is directly pre-installed for a better "moving bed" process for improved turbulence of the HX 13/17. This requires a diaphragm pump of 100-120 L/min. We recommend either the HAP series, the Secoh series or the AP series.

In addition, the biochamber has been equipped with 8mm slots to insert HX13/17. 

Please note the protected and unprotected surface for the HX13/17. According to this, the square metre of bacteria removal surface is calculated.

The CF65 drum filter is available in both pump and gravity versions. Even if you have a gravity version, it is possible to convert it to a pump version in just a few steps (if you need help with this, we will be happy to assist you).

Instructions for the conversion are enclosed with the control box.

The fuse function or the emergency lid switch switches off the immersion UVCs directly when the lid is opened. The function is only guaranteed if they are connected via the supplied control unit.

It is recommended that the electrical connection of the control unit is protected by a residual current circuit breaker.

The control unit should not be directly exposed to moisture.

Suitable connection accessories would be elastomer sleeve 110mm, elastomer end caps 110mm (if you do not need all inlets and outlets). As UV lamp we recommend our submersible UVC 40W Amalgan or submersible UVC 80W Amalgam.

By using deep well pumps a flushing process is hardly audible.

Why EPS drum filters?

From 30 years of experience and many purchased and self-tested filter systems from different suppliers, we have decided to build our own drum filter series.

There are stainless steel, PE and PP drum filters on the market.

Some of the stainless steel filters were notable for their poor workmanship (cheap tank connectors that leaked, broke off or had rust defects).

PE filters caused big problems when exposed to sunlight (bending and warping of the material)

Many drum filters do not have a direct drive and are driven by pinions, V-belts or toothed belts.

The use of salt also became problematic.

In our view, these are all weak points that can lead to malfunctions.

For these reasons, we decided to build PP filters that do not deform, are acid-resistant and are operated with a direct drive.

After an intensive test period of approx. 6 years in our own KOI facility, which consists of approx. 60 tanks of various sizes, with full fish stocking and abundant feeding every day, we started series production.

All these problems are now a thing of the past - We love clear water and healthy fish

EPS drum filters reduce the need for cleaning and maintenance in fish farms and garden ponds to a minimum.

The processing is done with the most modern technology such as CNC machines, which guarantees quality and precision.

The systems can be used in the koi and/or swimming pond sector as well as in fish farming, industry and public areas.

You can convince yourself of the quality at any time in our exhibition

We look forward to your visit
