PHILIPPINES CUSTOMER SHARED HIS ROTARY DRUM FILTER AND KOI POND

Customer View

A customer owns a villa landscape pool in which 30 pcs Carp are inhabiting. He encounters a little dilemma: the water of the landscaped pool is full of debris and it is filthy. It’s his first experience with a landscaped pool. He wants to keep the water clean and does not need a manual cleaner. I recommended a Mini Small Rotary Drum Filter by QIHANG.

QIHANG is a professional manufacturer of aquaculture machines. To keep the water of the landscaped pool clean the company manufactured Mini small drum rotary film. The water flow rate of the rotary drum filter is 1320 gallons per hour which are equal to 5m³ per hour. That’s why it is also called the 5m3/h Mini Rotary Drum Filter. Its working power is 95 W. It has a 316 stainless steel screen which has multi-layer braiding, long life and is more effective in filtration residue.

It is simply designed. It consists of rotary drum filters, water inlets and outlets, drainage tanks and nozzles. The customer expresses that the simple design is easy to install and easy to operate. The nozzle has timed high pressure which not only saves energy but also has a stronger ability. The dirt collection tank has an angle of inclination that helps in quick drainage.

Rotary drum filters screen impurities larger than 70 microns in water such as green algae, residual bait, dropping, etc. It is highly efficient in the separation of light solids. Its sheet is corrosion-resistant and durable.

It is fully automatic in action. It automatically senses whether the screen is clogged and automatically performs backwashing. It also can set the backwashing time according to the screen blockage. It has screen-degree blocking induction with a high-quality water-level sensor that is adapted to ensure stability. The screen uses a unique weaving process. It has low resistance and a strong ability to pass water. Zero energy consumption can be achieved when the screen is not blocked.

The rotary Drum filter also plays a key role in water conservation. The water consumption is only 5%.

The customer is satisfied with the 5m3/h rotary drum filters. He said that 5m³ showed good results. It has stable performance and also conserves energy. Because the system is fully automatic, It keeps the water clean all the time without much effort and manly power. It solves problems effectively. The customer highly recommends it.

Design advantage

  • The drum rotary filter has a flap cover design or clean window.
  • It contains time-control backwashing which is very simple to operate.
  • It has a back-washing pump which can sense whether the screen is clogged and instantly performs back-washing.
  • The inlet and outlets size can be customised according to the customer’s requirements.
  • The bottom of the drain outlet can discharge impurities and accumulated water from the bottom.
  • The treated water flow rate of 5000L/h per hour is1320 gallons per hour.
  • It has an in-line backwashing high-pressure nozzle which has higher backwashing intensity than the traditional conical backwashing nozzle which helps in saving water and electricity by 20 to 30%.
  • We support voltage and frequency customization for our customers living in various countries, i.e.220V/50Hz or 110V/60Hz.

Material Advantage

The Combi Rotary drum filter is made of polypropylene. It has a high heat resistance and can be exposed to the sun for a long time. It is non-toxic and doesn’t release toxins and is safe. It has stronger impact strength.

The Combi Rotary Drum filter has a drum filter screen which is a double-layer screen, SS316L made of stainless steel screen drum. This screen has 200 mesh filters that can filter 75μm impurities such as fish manure, fishing bait residue, particulate matter, algae, leaves, etc. The larger the mesh number of the filter screen, the smaller the pore size, and the more solids are retained.

It has a waterproof electric control box.

Material Comparison

  • Its Shell is made of PP material and plastic material, and stainless steel.
  • It has a Double-layer screen of SS316 material and nylon material.

Installation method

One needs an external connection to the pipeline, a pre-buried pipeline, hidden equipment and a warehouse for equipment.

Traditional fish pond filtration

Traditional fish pond filtration equipment usually performs sewage treatment in the form of physical filtration, biochemical filtration and ultraviolet sterilization and algae suppression. Among them, the feature of physical filtration is to intercept sediment, so that when the pool water passes through the physical filter media of the filter (such as filter brushes, biochemical cotton), the solid suspended matter in the water is intercepted and deposited in the box to achieve effective water purification Effect. With the dense filaments, the filter brush can effectively block the large suspended solids from entering the next-level filter bin, and can effectively carry out the first step of garbage interception. The brush needs to be manually fixed and disassembled for cl cleaning.

1.Waterfall trickle filtration(Bakki shower)

Build a trickle box or frame above the pond and place a submersible pump at the far end of the pond to drain water into the trickle box. The trickle filtration needs to be divided into several layers. The first layer is generally filtered cotton, followed by biological balls, activated carbon, bacteria houses, ceramic rings, etc. In this process, the function of filter cotton is to filter most impurities, which need to be replaced regularly. The most important function is the bacteria house, which can remove some harmful bacteria in the water.

2.Water circulation filtration

Cyclic filtration is to achieve the effect of filtration through the circulation of the water body. The most intuitive effect is to increase oxygen, but too frequent water changes are not conducive to the cultivation of biological colonies and the formation of the ecosystem of fish ponds, Excrement, etc. will not disappear completely because of the flow cycle, and it cannot fundamentally play a filtering effect.

3.Sand filter

The water of the fish pond is pumped into the sand filter by the water pump, and these impurities are deposited to the bottom of the sand filter through the filtration of quartz sand and other filter materials in the sand tank. Quartz sand cultivates beneficial bacteria at the bottom of the sand filter to create an ecosystem that decomposes and purifies harmful bacteria. However, it needs to be used with strong biochemical filtration to be used in fish ponds, and it is not suitable for fish ponds with too many baths, and the interior is easy to block.

New drum filter (integrated fish pond filter)

Rotary drum filters, biochemical and UV, it can squeeze and precipitate the impurities in the fish pond using spiral precipitation. There is no need to clean and replace the filter material,  which eliminates the trouble of manual cleaning.
