Hi,
I just came back from a business trip. Our local made RDF is progressing and I think it will be finished by end of next week. Unfortunately one of our staff folded the microscreen and it looks quite ugly now (even it works). Anyway, the allover quality will be at least similar with the imported filters but we also have some additional features which I think are even better than the imported version. The prototype will be our future KC30 model with 30 cbm/h flow rate, suitable for ponds up to 45 tons capacity. In a later stage we will also build other versions with 6, 12, 18, 50 and 100 cbm/h. The smaller versions will also be available with a "built-in" Helix chamber so that they are an excellent alternative to "normal" filter boxes.
Pricewise, I estimate that the KC30 model will cost between 15-17jt. (still need to do final calculations. The smaller models (with simpler set up) might be starting at 7,5 jt.. I am confident that these filters will be "standard" in many new ponds in the future
Here is some general info and some pics:
-Casing in PVC
-Bearings are machined flanges or sockets (very strong)
-Sealings are from Teflon
-The drive will be a "toothed" belt (very safe operation)
-Microscreen in stainless steel with 60 micron
-electronic sensor for the water level, easy to set as the sensor is placed
outside of the filter
-easy-to-use control unit for setting the flushing time
The appearance is not yet as it will be for the final product. The final version will look much better
More news after I get back from my Germany trip
