Each bioPro features our unique Bio Cell media;
specifically designed for biofiltration. This neutrally
buoyant, "high impact", polystyrene media provides a large
amount of surface area that is required for healthy colonies of
aerobic nitrifying bacteria. Bio Cell's design combine
self-cleaning with protected surface area, enhancing and
protecting nitrifying bacteria growth. The result: a
biological filter specifically engineered to deliver robust
biofiltration... easy to install... easy to operate!

Features:
Optimum Filtering & Backwash
bioPRO’s are biological filters…not mechanical filters
and must be positioned
after a solid waste capturing filter (pre-filters/
surface skimmer boxes). The heart of the bioPRO Filter
is its Bio Cell filter media that after initial start-up
(4-6 weeks) becomes home to colonies of “aerobic”
nitrifying bacteria.
While a bioPRO is not a mechanical filter, it will trap
solid waste that must be flushed from the filter. The
key here is to keep the media as free of rotting solid
waste as possible and therefore routine cleaning
(bi-weekly) is essential. To backwash, simply shut the
pump off, switch the multi-port valve to backwash,
re-start the pump and watch the solids flush from the
filter.
Low-Head / High Flow Pump Operation
Bio Cell Media’s size, configuration and
neutral buoyancy allows bioPRO Filters to operate with
Low-head (High-Flow) pumps.
Pressurized Design
*Allows for Remote Operation
*Compact Size
*Easy to Hide
*Easy to Install
Easily Backwashed / Serviced
The bioPRO’s 6-Way Multi-Port Valve makes filter
cleaning QUICK & SIMPLE |

Optimal Biofiltering
(Designed for dense fish loads) Bio Cell Media
offers a large amount of “Protected” surface area
providing a safe environment for nitrifying
bacteria. Bio Cell Media will not channel (Pack Down
Inside the Filter). |

This
diagram shows a complete bioPRO installation that includes a
surface-skimmer, external pump, bioPRO Filter and SMART UV.
The plumbing manifold (using 3-way true-union ball valves)
create a water by-pass; allowing precise flow control to the
SMART UV. |
