Powerful, compact CO
Congratulations on purchasing this high-quality CO
with a reliable and consistent supply of CO
Dennerle wishes you lasting enjoyment from your aquarium!
How the CO
Cyclo Turbo works
2
The CO
supplied by the CO
fertilizer system issues from the opening of the CO
2
2
tube. From here, the bubbles rise to the surface and collect beneath the individual
steps of the Turbo attachment.
The water coming from the filter whirls in a downward direction past the ‚trapped'
CO
bubbles. Thanks to this counter-current principle, which is frequently found in
2
nature too, the CO
is able dissolve extremely quickly and effectively.
2
The CO
-enriched water then flows into the aquarium at the bottom end of the whirl
2
chamber
The amount of CO
supplied can be calculated on the basis of the number of bub-
2
bles per minute.
The atomizer jet and waste-gas vent
While the CO
dissolves into the water, other gases that occur naturally in aquarium
2
water penetrate the CO
bubbles. These so-called waste gases explain why the bub-
2
bles become smaller the further up the tank they rise but never dissolve complete-
ly. When the bubbles reach the head of the whirl chamber they already consist
almost entirely of waste gases and contain barely any CO
drawn into the atomizer jet and split into thousands of tiny bubbles. This allows the
remaining CO
to dissolve before the waste gases are drawn off via the specially desi-
2
gned waste-gas vent.
Cyclo Turbo and aquarium size
The device is highly effective, despite its compact design. The Cyclo Turbo can
provide aquariums up to 750 litres with CO
The capacity of the device can be considerably expanded to fit any aquarium. A Cyclo
extension (Order No.: 1588) and a Cyclo Turbo insert (Order No: 1580) are
available for this purpose. Each extension module increases the range by a
further 750 litres.
The Cyclo Turbo is compatible with all commercially available CO

The control tap should be set in such a way as to enable as much water as possi-
ble to flow through the Cyclo cylinder without forcing the CO
allowing them to rise slowly.

How to install the
Cyclo Turbo correctly
1. Rinse the Cyclo Turbo with warm tap water.
Do not use detergent!
2. Insert the control tap into the Cyclo head.
Attach the CO
supply hose to the hose
2
connector.
TIP: Dipping the end of the hose into hot
water briefly beforehand makes it easier to
slide it over the hose connector.
3. Select a suitable spot in the aquarium to
affix the unit. The spot should not be too
bright, to prevent possible algae growth.
Using the suction cups, attach the Cyclo ver-
tically in the aquarium at least 5 cm below
the surface of the water.
4. Attach the control tap to the water outlet of
the motor filter or a separate pump using a
suitable hose. The Cyclo head can be turned
for this purpose.All standard hoses sized
9/12 mm, 12/16 mm and 16/22 mm
fit.
5. Set the required amount of CO
at the pres-
2
sure reducer. For this purpose, please also
