Technical Data on Bio Booster / Bio Line

 1. LDP Plastic (Same as swimming pool filter).
 2. Wall thickness is 8 – 10mm.
 3. Boosters are green with UV resistant materials build into the media used.
 4. Unit can handle a pressure of 2 Bar (29.4Psi).
 5. Units are available in three sizes: 32 Lt, 42 Lt and 72 Lt.
 6. Unit comes standard with quick – release 50mm fittings and a high-pressure filter lid.
 7. The use of filter media inside can vary from plastic shavings, bio-balls, Alfagrog etc.
 8. The flow rate through the unit should not exceed 10 000l/hour. Reason: High flow rates wash out the bacteria.
 9. On a typical filter installation, you would put the Bio Booster last in the line, after your Sand/Bio filter.
 10. Note that your Bio Booster is there to aid in the removal of nitrates. This means that the filter is a biological filter rather than a mechanical filter (Sand filter or brushes are mechanical filters).
 11. Unit will have a live expectancy of at least fifteen years under normal operating conditions.
 12. NOTE: For best results the bottom fitting should be used as the inlet and the top fitting as the outlet/return. Suggested pond sizes for Bio Boosters (Using Bio Balls or other filter media with a good surface area)
