Rinsing procedure for the Beadmaster® Filters:
-
 Stop the pump, switch the purge valve to the "rinse/blower" position and start the air blower. The air bubbles rise through the filter material and loosen the dirt. The air escapes through the purge valve to the sewer/outlet. After approximately 10 to 30 seconds stop the air blower again (depending on the amount of soiling).
-
Switch the purge valve to the "backwash" position and start the pump. The water is now taken through the filter in the opposite direction, where the loosened dirt is taken to the outlet. By fitting a sight glass in the discharge line it can be simply checked when the rinsing water is clean enough (1 to 2 minutes).
-
Stop the pump, switch the purge valve to the "rinse/blower" position and start the pump. The water is now taken through the filter in the normal way, but afterwards is not taken back to the pond but to the outlet. In this way the last dirt after rinsing is not pumped back to the pond but drained away to the sewer (20-30 seconds).
-
Stop the pump, switch the purge valve to the "filter", position, start the pump, and that's that!
The whole procedure takes only a few minutes and very little water!
