    Biodrum Rotators | Drum filters with a Rotating biological section

    Biodrum Rotators | Drum filters with a Rotating biological section

    The MPF BiodrumRotator

    is our top model among the Biodrum filters! This model is a major upgrade over a standard Biodrum. The moving bed has been replaced here by a Rotating Biological Drum (RBC). The RBC is standard filled with Helix as a bio-media. This can also be filled with other biological material if desired.

     

    WHAT IS A BIODRUM ROTATOR IN A KOIPOND?

     

    The RBC is a rotating trickle / drip filter concept that requires no feed height from the pump! The RBC is 40% underwater and 60% above water for the maximum ammount of oxygen saturation. The big secret of this design is that the oxygen values are higher then in other filters, up to 4% higher in the water and 20% higher in the air. This gives the pond bacteria the best conditions to perform their work efficiently.

    The rotating movement of the RBC ensures that a trickle / drip filter is created without feed height. The industrial motor of 250nM and 60 watts turns the RBC.

    Ammonia and nitrite removal:

    Scientific studies in fish farming have shown that an RBC guarantees a very high ammonia and nitrite removal, 50% better than trickle filters and many times better than moving bed / mat filters!

    Benefits :

    • Better biological filtering effect
    • No more feed height compared to a trickle filter
    • 2x as efficient as a moving bed
    • Faster start-up than a moving bed
    • No drop in water temperature in winter compared to trickle filters
    • No noise
    • More stable bacterial culture even during the use of medication and changing water values
    • No need for an air pump anymore
    • Water is of better quality
    • You can feed more

    What is the best setup for my filter?

    We always recommend setting up the filter in gravity. The filter is placed at water level and will then protrude approximately 11-14 cm above the water level. Due to the effect of gravity, your filter fills up with water. A pond pump moves the water from your filter back to the pond.

    What is the capacity of a pump fed filter system?

    If a pump-fed system is chosen, there are a number of things to consider. First, pump fed systems have less capacity. Take a loss of 30% into account. For example, a Biodrum 100 can handle a maximum of 50m3 per hour in gravity setup, and a pump-fed system a maximum of 35m3. The biochamber will also not be completely filled with water, so less biological material will be able to enter. Our advice is to always go for a gravity system.

    If a difference is measured, the electronics will activate the flushing. During this flushing, the drive motor turns the drum filter and a high pressure pump from the nozzles (the mouthpiece) sprays the screen. The nozzles spray the water in from the outside of the drum to remove the dirt. This dirty water is collected on the inside of the drum filter by means of a gutter through which the water flows to the sewer. Once the water level is back at the correct level, the drum filter will flush for 20 seconds to ensure proper cleaning. After this, the pressure pump and drive motor will switch off and the electronics will continue its measurement until the next flush.

     

    Our controls


    Through years of testing and innovation, we have developed 2 types of controllers for our filters. The simple MPF controller electronics and the MPF Professsional Drum control with Siemens logo control.


    MPF CONTROLLER


    Standard supplied with each filter.

    - The pond pump stops when the water level is too low and turns on again when the water level in the pond is raised again.
    - Industrial electronics cabinet in a compact housing
    - Provides automatic flushing
    - Industrial Relay 16A
    - Manual flushing by push button
    - Digital display

     


    Option:

    MPF Professional Control with siemens logo controller.


    This electronics with Siemens Logo 8 controller is a new generation logic module suitable for any customer requirement and is extremely reliable. So reliable that even the large water treatment plants work with Siemens! (surcharge €350,00)

    The pond pump stops when the water level is too low and turns on again when the water level in the pond is raised again


    - Provides automatic flushing
    - You can read the data via internet
    - Via an app you can control the Siemens Logo8
    - Change flushes yourself if you want longer or shorter flushes
    - A daily counter is integrated so you can read out the total number of flushes and daily flushes
    - A signal is given when the drum has been in the dry run protection mode
    - Possibility to flush your gutter by connecting an additional flushing pump
    - Many possibilities to expand the drum to your liking
    - 1 x per hour rinsing to prevent the fabric from drying out (winter mode)

     


    Drum UV connections


    Each MPF filter is equipped with one or two Drum UV inputs. This makes it easy to install an MPF Drum UV using a rubber coupling.
