Evolution Aqua Tempest Pond Filter Water Polisher With K+ Media

Description

EVOLUTION AQUA TEMPEST
COLLECTION WELCOME by appointment Or delivery to UK Mainland Only
The NEW Tempest Filter is an innovative polishing system for ponds.
The Tempest Filter uses our latest filtration media, K+Media, to deliver crystal clear,
healthy water.

Designed to be used in conjunction with any filtration system, the Tempest Filter offers additional mechanical and biological filtration. The Tempest Filter can be installed on a variety of set-ups and can be used on quarantine systems or as a standalone filter on smaller ponds up to 5,000 Litres / 1,100 Gallons.

The Tempest filter is easy to install and is simple and quick to clean, by way of a unique, patent pending air syphon design.
During the cleaning process, air is drawn into the filter as it empties which causes the water to agitate,
effectively cleaning the K+Media.

Using Evolution Aqua’s K+Media as the filter media, particles down to one micron can be filtered.
On a single pass, testing has proven our media capable of removing all particles down to 25 micron when used at the optimum
flow rate. Not only that, K+Media is the result of extensive research and development and is moulded with minerals for faster maturation times.

How The Tempest Filter Works
Water is pumped up through the Tempest Filter. The K+Media moves to the top of the filter, becoming a mechanical barrier
that traps debris as it flows through the system. Waste is trapped in the K+Media until the cleaning cycle dislodges it and
it gets flushed away.

How To Clean The Tempest Filter
The Tempest Filter can be cleaned in matter of minutes, by simply turning the pump off, closing slide valves and
opening the waste valve tap.

There are a number of ways the Tempest Filter can be installed on your pond system.
Below are some typical installation ideas.

PLEASE NOTE: The slide valves fitted to the Tempest Filter allow connection to 1½” pressure pipe.
If installing the Tempest Filter using flexible hose you will need to fit a reducing sleeve (EA Code: M35-050)
and a 1½” solvent weld stepped hose-tail (EA Code: HOSE-TAIL15) inside each slide valve.

To allow the Tempest Filter to give the best performance, it is important that the flow rate is no more than the
5,000 litres per hour.
Some of the installation examples show aby-pass that will enable you to increase the flow through the pond.

TYPICAL INSTALLATION WITH A GRAVITY-FED FILTER

You can install a Tempest Filter after a primary filter on a gravity-fed set-up, such as the Nexus+, and
after a UV Clarifier, such as an evoUV.
The slide valves on the Tempest Filter enable connection to 1½” pressure pipe.

The installation example shown below has a by-pass that will enable you to increase the flow through your
pond while maintaining the optimum flow through the Tempest Filter. Installing ball valves on the pipe work
will help you regulate the flow.
The return from the Tempest can go back to the centre of your Nexus+ or back into the pond.

TYPICAL INSTALLATION ON A PRESSURISED SYSTEM
You can install a Tempest Filter on a pressurised system with a K1 Micro Bead, Nexus+, EazyPod.
The slide valves on the Tempest Filter enable connection to 1½” pressure pipe.

The installation example shown below has a by-pass that will enable you to increase the flow through your
pond while maintaining the optimum flow through the Tempest Filter. Installing ball valves on the pipe work
will help you regulate the flow.
The return from the Tempest and the K1 Micro Bead go back to the pond.

TYPICAL STAND ALONE TEMPEST FILTER INSTALLATION
You can install a Tempest Filter on a quarantine system, or a standalone pond up to 5,000 litres, at the side
of a pond or above the pond.

The slide valves on the Tempest Filter enable connection to 1½” pressure pipe.
If installing the Tempest Filter using flexible hose you will need to fit a reducing sleeve (EA Code: M35-050)
and a 1½” solvent stepped hose-tail
(EA Code: HOSE-TAIL15) inside each slide valve.

TYPICAL SKIMMER LINE INSTALLATION
You can install a Tempest Filter on a skimmer line.

The slide valves on the Tempest Filter enable connection to 1½” pressure pipe.
If installing the Tempest Filter using flexible
hose you will need to fit a reducing sleeve
(EA Code: M35-050) and a 1½” solvent stepped hose-tail (EA Code: HOSE-TAIL15) inside each slide valve.

MODULAR TEMPEST FILTER INSTALLATION
On larger systems that require a higher flow rate, multiple Tempest Filters can be installed in a modular
system.
The slide valves on the Tempest Filter enable connection to 1½” pressure pipe.
If installing the Tempest Filter using flexible hose you will need to fit a reducing sleeve (EA Code: M35-050)
and a 1½” solvent stepped hose-tail (EA Code: HOSE-TAIL15)
inside each slide valve.

It is important that each Tempest Filter can be isolated using the slide valves so that cleaning can be carried
out independently.
Although on the installation diagram below we show two filters into one return line, independent return lines will
allow you to observe the flow rate through both Tempest Filters and balance accordingly.
