PLEASE WATCH THE VIDEO BELOW.

On this model , water is pumped into  the drum through the  inlet. It is then "sieved " through the drum , and enters the clean chamber, where the cleaning pump is situated. When the drum becomes blocked, the water in the first chamber rises, the sensor in this chamber senses the rise, and starts to revolve the drum, and in turn starts the water pump which delivers water to the jets and cleans the screen of the drum. The waste water is collected inside the drum by a hopper, which then leaves the filter on another 4" pipe. Please note, we recommend that this stays 4" all the way to the drain, if reduced it can become clogged with leaves, blanket weed etc etc. When the drum is clean enough,  the sensor sees this and stops the process. Clean water then leaves this chamber, and enters the bio chamber, where it mixes with Oase hel-x media, that is constantly being moved around via the aerators situated at the bottom of the chamber. Please note an air pump of 40 lpm is required ( not included )
