Evolution Aqua K+ Advanced Filter BACK-ORDER STOCK ARRIVING SOON K+ Advanced Filter YOUTUBE VIDEO K+ Instruction manual Advanced pressure filters for Ponds using K+Media Economical to run thanks to its unique design The filter has been engineered to maximise pump efficiency Pre-filled with advanced K+Media for improved filtration Easy to operate and clean with Air blower, pipework and multiport valve supplied One-piece rotational molded filter body Built in feet (no skirt) for additional durability Granite grey colour matches existing evolution aqua filters Unique, engineered lateral design to optimise filtration There are four sizes in the range, 20”, 24”, 30” and 36” covering all sizes of ponds up to 91,000 litres (20,000 Gallons). Manufactured to Last Manufactured in the UK by Evolution Aqua, the K+Advanced Filter is produced using rotational moulding process; the body is made of a single homogenous material meaning there is no joint line, the wall thickness is consistent throughout, there are no weak points, and the feet are built-in as part of the body. This means that the K+Advanced Filter is extremely durable and has the same attractive granite grey colour finish as the other filters in the Evolution Aqua family. Best-in-Class Filtration Media The benefits of using K+Media have been well documented since its launch in 2019, including its ability to filter particles down to one micron. The design and profile of the media helps to improve flow, its vast protected surface area of 1,025m2 per m3, or the total area of 5 x tennis courts, maintains stable biofilms and its unique manufacturing process where minerals and enzymes are added during the extrusion process, ensure K+Media matures faster than any other type of filtration media. Evolution Aqua's filter media has also been independently tested to verify its performance by IFTS and Cranfield University. Peace of Mind Because Evolution Aqua are in control of the manufacturing process they can put the filters through rigorous testing and quality control checks before leaving the factory. K+Advanced Filters are rated to a maximum working pressure of 1.5 bar. Economical to Run To optimise performance, there are unique double laterals inside the filter that help to improve flow through the bed of K+Media, that is supplied with every filter. This laminar flow, coupled with the use of K+Media reduces back pressure on the circulating pump, ultimately making K+Advanced Filters one of the most economical filters to run. How K+Advanced Filters work? Water is pumped into the filter from the pond, through the multi-port valve where the internal pipework directs the water to the bottom laterals. As the water flows upwards inside the K+Advanced Filter, dirt, debris and waste are trapped within the mass of K+Media that floats at the top of the filter. The vast protected surface area provided by K+Media also provides a home for beneficial bacteria, delivering mechanical and biological filtration.The filtered water flows back through the laterals and pipework at the top of the filter, through the multi-port valve and back down the return line into the pond.The K+Advanced Filter, is incredibly easy to clean by simply moving the handle on the multi-port valve into the corresponding positions to perform a backwash and rinse which flushes out the waste trapped inside. How to install K+Advanced Filters? The K+Advanced Filter can be installed as shown if you are planning to use a pre-filter such as the Evolution Aqua Cetus sieve. If you are not planning to use a pre-filter, we highly recommend that you fit a strainer basket to the pump. This will prevent leaves, string algae etc. from entering the filter and pump. *It is recommended that all pipework on the pump side (from the pump to the filter and back to the pond) is installed on 2” pipe. Please note on the K+Advanced Filter 20 you will have to reduce your pipe down to 1½” to connect to the multiport valve. This will ensure that your pump is working at its maximum flow. Do not operate the multiport valve with the circulating pump switched on. The air blower ball valve must be closed when the circulating pump is running. How to install K+Advanced Filters?
