Putting into operation

Attention! Comply with the safety measures specified for the UVC emitter (see above)! Install the
connection socket outlet in the water-protected area and at least 2 m away from the edge of the pond!
Connect the pond pump to the mains supply.
Check whether the hose is connected so that it is watertight and no leaks are visible on the radiator. Use
commercially available hose clamps if necessary.
Connect the UVC emitter to the mains supply. You can check the function of the UVC tube by the bluish
shimmer on the transparent hose adapter (6) on the emitter inlet (8).

immersed in the pond from the power source by pulling the plug out of the socket outlet.
Attention! The power cord of this device cannot be replaced. If the cable is damaged, the complete lamp
socket including the ballast must be replaced. It is not possible to replace the supply line, as the connecting
cables are firmly sealed.
ATTENTION: Before performing any installation or maintenance tasks, disconnect the electrical
devices from the power source by pulling the plug out of the socket outlet.
Attention! The power cord of this device cannot be replaced. If the cable is damaged the UVC clarifier
contained in the filter, including the ballast unit, is unusable and must be properly disposed of. Repair is
not possible because the connecting lines are permanently cast.

Cleaning the filter

The cleaning intervals depend on the degree of soiling of the pond.
If the water jet decreases, or for TFP 10000 UV 11 and TFP 15000 UV 13 the dirt indicator at the top of the
adjustment lever is orange, clean both the filter and the pump.
All filters are equipped with a quick cleaning system (Back Wash).
The cleaning (Back Wash) of the different filter models is carried out as follows:
TFP 5000 UV 9:
•
Switch off the pump and UVC clarifier before any maintenance or cleaning.
•
Set the setting knob from "Filter" to "Clean"
•
Remove the drain hose (hose connection of the filter marked OUT) from the pond and place it in a flower
bed or sewage pipe. Caution: you should not return the water used for cleaning to the pond.
•
Switch on the pump to clean the filter and start the cleaning process.
•
Further turn the crank handle to assist in cleaning the filter sponges.
•
Operate the filter in this position until clear water comes out of the drain hose.
•
After the filter has been completely cleaned, switch the pump off again, rotate the setting knob from
"Clean" to "Filter", place the drain hose in your pond and switch the pump and UVC clarifier on again.
