Dear Customer, thank you for giving your preference to this quality product. We
ask you to take a look at the brief instructions below to make the best use of this
filter and to appreciate its qualities.
The filter is designed with 3 advanced filtration stages, constituting a complete
system, equipped with high-quality filter media and a silent, durable pump.
• Mechanical Filtration: The inlet grid and filter sponge play a key role in
the mechanical filtration process, capturing unwanted particles and ensuring
effective water purification.
• Biological Filtration: ceramic rings, characterised by a large surface area,
promote the development of beneficial bacterial flora.
• Chemical Filtration: the replaceable cartridge contains activated carbon,
allowing aromatic compounds and colourants to be removed by adsorption.
In addition, the filter is equipped with an adjustable diffuser nozzle, a Spray Bar
and an Air Venturi Kit to supplement oxygen supply to the water.
