T.I.P. MTS 10000 UV 11 Gebrauchsanweisung Seite 15

It is best to set up the filter where it is in the shade. If the interior of your filter should become very hot, then
its capacity is reduced.
To ensure safe operation, we recommend that you fix the hose ends in place on the hose connection pieces
with off-the-shelf hose clamps.
Always use the shortest possible hose length and avoid kinking the hose
For biological reasons, the immersion depth of the pond pump should be approx. 40 cm for optimal function
of the filter system. Ensure that the pond pump is placed on a silt-free substrate (stone slab).
5.3. Placing in service
Attention! Comply with the safety measures specified for the UVC emitter and the pump (see above)!
(See the provided operating instructions).
Install the connection socket outlet in the water-protected area and at least 2 m away from the edge
of the pond!
Connect the pond pump to the mains supply, plug the mains plug into the socket outlet.
The pond pump pumps the contaminated water into the filter through the UVC emitter
Connect the UVC emitter to the mains supply, plug the mains plug into the socket outlet.
You can check the function of the UVC tube through a bluish shimmer on the transparent discharge port of
the UVC emitter.
For this filter system we recommend continuous operation (24 hours a day), in the season months March to
October.
Note: - The biological filtration develops naturally, it takes 5-6 weeks until the full
effect is attained. To accelerate settlement of bacteria, appropriate bacteria can be purchased in any pond
shop.
Attention! The function of the filter system must be checked at regular intervals!
Initially the filter system should be checked at least 1x daily. Leaves, grass, and animal hair, for example can
quickly clog the filter sponges.
Consequently select the cleaning intervals based on the type and the extent of contamination in your pond.
6. Maintenance and care
Attention! Prior to carrying out any maintenance work, the electric device must be separated from the
electrical mains.
Attention! The power cord of this device cannot be replaced. If the cable is damaged the UVC emitter
contained in the filter, including the ballast, is unusable and must be properly disposed of. Repair is not
possible because the connecting lines are permanently cast.
6.1. Cleaning the pump
 always disconnect the power supply before performing any maintenance work
 make sure the pump's filter cap (Fig. PKH 2600 / 4000, 1) is not entirely clogged by leaves or other
debris. If it is, clean the housing.
1. Press the side of the front cover (1) and pull it off the pump (Fig. 1)
2. Twist the inlet cover (9) counterclockwise by approx. 20° (Fig. 2)
3. Pull the inlet cover (9) out of the pump.
4. Pull the rotor completely (7, 10, 11) out of the pump.
Note: The impeller and the magnet can be rotated by a certain angle against each other for technical
reasons
5. Mount the pump as follows:
5.1. Insert the rotor completely (7, 10, 11) into the pump.
5.2. Twist the inlet cover (9) into the pump and turn clockwise until it stops.
5.3. Insert the front cover (1) into the pump.
For proper operation, repeat this procedure depending on the degree of soiling and service life.
6.2. Cleaning the UVC emitter and replacing the tube
Caution! Do not touch UVC tube (5) directly with your hand; put on cotton gloves!
Old UV-C tubes shall not get broken and must not be disposed in regular garbage bin. Contact your local
waste disposal company. Do not use a sharp edged tools. In case Quartz glass cylinder or O-ring are defect,
they should get replaced immediately.
The lamp must be changed by qualified personnel only.
