INTRODUCTION
In order to grow well, the plants in your aquarium need:
• light, indispensable for photosynthesis;
• fertilizer, important for the absorption of mineral
salts;
• water with the right chemical-physical properties;
• carbon dioxide (CO ), important for the assimilation
2
of carbon.
During the day, plants absorb CO
oxygen into their environment, a fundamental
element for all the inhabitants of the aquarium.
It is therefore important that there is always the
right concentration of CO
assimilating the carbon from the carbonates, do not
lower the temporary hardness (KH) or pH too much
(KH<4dH; pH<6). CO
2
acts not only as a fertilizer, but also as a constant
regulator of the pH (increasing the concentration of
CO in the water reduces the pH).

• REACTOR: disposable cylinder / *rechargeable
cylinder
• DISTRIBUTOR: CO ENERGY MIXER With 250 l/h pump

• RECOMMENDED VOLUME: up to 500 litres
Thanks to the CO
distributor, both systems ensure the dispersion of
the CO released, offering high efficiency without

waste, ensuring excellent results, even with a
limited number of bubbles per minute.
* The Ferplast collection does not include a
rechargeable cylinder (though this is available from
your retailer); however, an adaptor is available to
connect the pressure reducer in the CO
PROFESSIONAL kit to it.
INSTALLATION
Please read the following instructions carefully, so as to
ensure the best operation of the system.
1 Position the cylinder (disposable or rechargeable)
vertically, away from heating radiators and other
heat sources.
2 Remove the rubber protection cap from the cylinder
valve.
3 If using a disposable cylinder:
a slowly screw in the pressure reducer at the cylinder
valve.
4 If using a rechargeable cylinder:
a Ensure you have the special Ferplast adaptor.
b Screw the adaptor tightly onto the rechargeable
cylinder.
c Screw the pressure reducer onto the adaptor (no
spanners or tools are required).
5 You can check the pressure in the cylinder with
the special Ferplast pressure gauge (CO
ADAPTER 0-150 bar), available from your retailer,
attaching it BEFOREHAND to the reducer at the point
marked HP (take care to remove the plug from the
gauge seat on the reducer; insert the special seal
before screwing in the gauge).
6 Half-fill the bubble counter with water. The bubble
counter can be placed on a flat surface (better
