As soon as the Nitrate filter is placed in the correct position and all connections are ready, the
water flow can be started. The inlet is marked by "IN" (10), the outlet by "OUT" (12). Connection
No. 11 is not necessary. Before you open the Sulphur-Nitratereductor SN Blue after filling, you
have to let off the water from the lid. This is done most simply by hanging the hose of the inlet
(IN) in a lower placed bucket or into the drain. Since the inlet is extended inside, the reactor runs
dry automatically up to this point.
Please don't pull on the cable to open the lid but hold under the lid's edge.
The back flow into the aquarium or the filter tank should be directed to a well-flushed place in
order to mix it immediately with the aquarium water. The drip counter (14), included in delivery, is
used for a safe mounting of the hose as well as for controlling the flow.
6. Maintenance
The Aqua Medic Hydrocarbonate (coarse grain) is consumed by the chemical reaction and has to
be refilled from time to time. Furthermore, it should be replaced completely regularly since the
grain size decreases and thus flow and circulation drop. The same applies for the sulphur beads.
Also the flow rate should be checked regularly.
The pump should be cleaned occasionally. To do so, the cap of the pump housing (8) has to be
taken off. One hand holds the pump inlet and the other one the pump outlet, then the cap has to
be drawn to the top. Take care not to tilt since otherwise, the ceramic axle might break.
