Draco Drum C30/340 Combi Unit

Draco Drum S16

Drawing on the experience and knowledge from our commercial development and collaborations we have transferred it to our range of smaller filter products to aid the modern water keeper. The engineering and understanding of how filtration works was developed to produce the stand alone range of filters. Fully curved base to eliminate corners that allow bacterial and debris build up. These units are pretty enough for you not to want to hide them away. These are all built with the outlets to perfectly match the inlets of our bio systems. Providing you with the ultimate flexibility to suit your own individual setup and space.

Features:

• The remotely sited controller has start / emergency stop buttons and a knob allowing you to change the length of wash. LED indicator shows the length of time between washes in minutes. Option to utilise a forced wash at either 45 or 99 minutes (This is triggered only if an automatic wash has not completed within the specified time). It also has 2 leads – one to plug in to the mains supply (110v and 230v, auto selectable) and one to plug in to the drum. Status of the unit is via 4 colour coded LEDs. We didn’t think we could make it any simpler than that.
• Fully sealed nylon bodied water valve.
• Low voltage so that only 12 volts DC is anywhere near your pond water.
• Designed to run without a noisy and power hungry wash pump in most circumstances (they are available if required). On standby the unit can use less than 1/2 watt and in full wash mode, use 35 watts. It is entirely possible to run it off a car battery for prolonged periods of time.
• 77 micron stainless steel screen.
• 2 pin ancillary out from the control box facilitating you being able to utilise to your own requirements.
• Quick release/change UV Resistant DPM Drum Seal.
• External short shaft, rim drive motor.
• Solid state water level sensors.
• Extra deep waste tray with increased slope.

Origin Draco Drum

The Origin Draco Drum is a reasonably priced and reliable unit. It comes with a choice of screens 77 microns and 58 microns depending on what is required. This Drum Can be used without a pressure wash pump – wash cycle runs off a normal garden hose with a minimum pressure of 2.5 bar with good flow. The Origin uses 35 watts of power while active, 11.5 watts while on standby and 78 watts while active with optional pressure pump. The Drive system comprises direct gearing to the back of the drum minimising complexity, the sealed motor unit is mounted on a single pivot swing arm as a safety feature to stop foreign bodies jamming the system. Its a fairly Simple installation via multiple types of adaptor plate which are interchangeable Single, pre-wired connection from controller to drum. Just plug and play ability to site controller up to 4 metres away from the unit. The Status of controller is available via simple, high intensity, colour coded LEDs and a digital minute between washes display. Easily accessible water level sensors that can be adjusted to accommodate any situation
All parts are modular and are replaceable in the event of any damage or failure Wholly designed and built in the UK by Draco Drum.

Draco Drum C60/590 Combi Unit

There are 3 different sized combination filters. These all have the drum and the biological chamber built into the same unit. Drawing on the experience and knowledge from our commercial development and collaborations we have transferred it to our range of smaller filter products to aid the modern water keeper. The engineering and understanding of how filtration works was developed to produce the Combi range of filters. Fully curved base to eliminate corners that allow bacterial and debris build up. Because of the clever design concept, the full length of the units (including under the drum unit), are utilised within the bio area. Thereby allowing the system to provide the maximum capacity to floor space without losing it to unutilised volume.

Features:

• Full length (utilises space under drum), diverted and downward flow, curve base biological chamber
• Sloped and slotted base to drum chamber, to eliminate bio media clogging and particle buildup in this area
• Large diameter and short length drum to maximise bio space and reduce water usage.
• Split screen for easy access to the middle of the drum and easy bypassing of the unit
• Quick release/change UV Resistant DPM Drum Seal
• External short shaft, rim drive motor
• Solid state water level sensors

Technical Data:

• Dimensions (Including inlet/outlet pipes) – 730mm wide x 1040mm high x 1340mm long
• Height above water level – 185mm
• Capacity 13,000 Imp gallons per hour / 60,000 litres per hour (in gravity mode, pump fed less 25%)
• Pond Volume – 8,000 to 10,000 UK gallons
• Bio area – 590 litres @ fill volume of 66% equates to 400 litres of bio media
• 4 X 110mm Inlets / 3 x 110mm outlets and additional 2 x 63mm bypass outlets on either side (e.g. for showers)
