Hi,
last week we finished the renovation of our pond number D4 . This pond is the first in Indonesia with a rotary drum filter installed. The pond will not need any maintenance and it should provide superb water quality .
The technical data and main features are:
-27,5 tons water capacity (only 3,5 tons for the filter chambers )
-3 bottom drains of 6 inch, 1 skimmer
-collector chamber to feed the drum filter (750 liter)
-rotary drum filter with a flow rate of max. 30 tons/hour
-300 liter Helix 14 Filter Media in a "moving bed" chamber with 2,2 tons (can handle 1,5kg of koi food / day, the amount can be doubled by
adding another 300 liter of Helix 14)
-pump chamber (750 liter) with 2 Tsurumi pumps (each 15 tons/h flow)
-500mg Ozone Generator in the collecting chamber for de-colouring the
water (the yellowish colour disappears when using Ozone)
-2 Yasunaga air pumps (LP 40)
-no cleaning of filter or filter media (cleaning is done automatically)
-automatic water refill (no weekly water changes)
Here are some photos from the setup and the filter:
