How the K+Advanced Filter works

Water is pumped into the filter from the pond, through the multi-port valve where the internal pipework directs the water to the bottom laterals.

As the water flows upwards inside the K+Advanced Filter, dirt, debris and waste are trapped within the mass of K+Media that floats at the top of the filter. The vast protected surface area provided by K+Media also provides a home for beneficial bacteria, delivering mechanical and biological filtration.

The filtered water flows back through the laterals and pipework at the top of the filter, through the multi-port valve and back down the return line into the pond.

The K+Advanced Filter, is incredibly easy to clean by simply moving the handle on the multi-port valve into the corresponding positions to perform a backwash and rinse which flushes out the waste trapped inside.

Installation

 

The K+Advanced Filter can be installed as shown if you are planning to use a pre-filter such as the Evolution Aqua Cetus Sieve. If you are not planning to use a pre-filter we highly recommend that you fit a strainer basket to the pump.This will prevent leaves, string algae etc. from entering the filter and pump.

 

*It is recommended that all pipework on the pump side (from the pump to the filter and back to the pond) is installed on 2” pipe. Please note on the K+Advanced Filter 20 you will have to reduce your pipe down to 1½” to connect to the multiport valve. This will ensure that your pump is working at its maximum flow.

 

Do not operate the multiport valve with the circulating pump switched on. The air blower ball valve must be closed when the circulating pump is running.

 

 

The K+Advanced Filter can be installed as shown on a skimmer line.
