Description
Super Shower
The Super Shower is a modular trickle filter that is easy to install and can also be fitted in as an additional filter. Trickle filters are often used in cultivation systems due to their high biological capacity, quick biology start-up and enormous oxygen enrichment of water.
- easy to install into existing systems
- capable of flows up to 20 m3/hr
- small footprint • quick biology start-up
- modular construction • easy to expand
- perfect supplement to Beadfilters
- option of combining filter media (oyster shells, SuperBio, Alfa Grog, etc.)
- module with filter cartridges for use as a standalone filter in small ponds
Trickle filter operating principle:
A trickle filter’s operating principle is very simple. The water is pumped up and then well distributed across a perforated surface. This causes the water to splash down on the filter medium like a shower. This method causes the water to break up and absorb a great deal of oxygen: ideal for a biological system that demands a high level of oxygen. This is why a trickle filter starts up faster than other filters, such as multi-chamber systems or beadfilters. It therefore stands to reason that this is the system of choice for most cultivation farms.
SuperShower’s characteristics:
The SuperShower is a modular system. Every chamber module can be stacked on top of another module. This makes it possible to adjust or expand the filter to meet every need.
The water is pumped into the upper chamber. The water is distributed via a perforated plate, creating a perfect shower. The biofilter medium is located below this plate which is completely infiltrated by this shower. The water then flows through the perforated bottom to the next chamber. Since the chambers are not completely filled with filter media, there is a sufficient drop height for the water to redistribute itself and to break up after each chamber.
The lowest chamber also contains biofilter media. However, the bottom of this chamber is solid and the water flows out of this chamber back to the pond via the 3x 110 mm outlets.
