Maintenance And Care - T.I.P. MTS 30000 UV 24 INOX Mode D'emploi

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.

If you notice an increase in algae formation and/or see that lime scale is increasing, you will need to check
that the UV-C unit is working properly. UVC tube has a limited period of effectiveness (approx. 4000 to 5000
hours) and should be replaced at the latest after one season (March to October). Appropriate replacement
tubes are available at the service address specified below.
If the pond filter has been switched off for a longer period of time, ensure that the quartz glass cylinder that
encloses the UVC tube is clean.
If the filter has not been operated for a longer period of time, under some circumstances it may be necessary
to replace the sealing rings (particularly for the UVC emitter).
