The skimmer 6000i, 9000i and 12000i are powered by an 24 V DC pump . This pump includes a
"soft start", this means the rotor will be slowly accelerated to its set at the controller power stage.
Through this slow acceleration is starting the Pump, even under difficult conditions, guaranteed.
The choice of the power stage by pressing the + and - buttons is carried out at the 10-stage
controller.
By pressing the "Feed" button the pump stopped for 10 minutes. After this, the pump continues to
operate at the previously set stage.
The transformer as well as the controller have to be placed in a dry and ventilated place to prevent
any possible damage through moisture or water.
Damages caused this way are except from warranty.
For best performance the water level in the filter sump (diagram a) should be between 180
and 290 mm, depending of the skimmer model (see technical data). A prerequisite for
continuous efficient performance is a constant water level in which the skimmer operates.
Ideally, a water level top up system should be used such as the Deltec Aquastat 1001 or
better still a separate skimmer compartment in the sump (diagram b). The water level in
the skimmer compartment should be higher than in the rest of the sump. But within the
levels recommended for the skimmer model.
This compartment can be supplied with water from a bypass of the aquarium overflow.
