The ClariSea team has developed a new generation of XL filter fleece after several months of research. This media offers improved flow through the fleece, allowing for a significantly longer lifespan while maintaining high filtration capacity.
The improved structure of the fleece allows for better particle capture, resulting in cleaner water and darker rolls, indicating effective filtration.
The impact on the skimmer foam during the first roll change is reduced, and the disposable central core has increased water resistance.
Roll length: 40 meters, approximately 60% more than standard 25 m rolls.
Material: 100% recyclable polypropylene.
Manufactured in Europe.
Continuous fleece area on a single roll.
A ClariSea XL roll for SK5000 XL offers a surface equivalent to about 155 standard 4-inch filter socks.
ClariSea roller filters eliminate the hassle associated with traditional filter socks, which need to be washed or replaced very regularly.
When comparing the cost, time, and efficiency of the two solutions, the ClariSea system stands out as an economical and practical alternative for mechanical filtration.
It is not relevant to define a fixed micron size for this type of filter media. As with filter socks, the fineness of filtration gradually increases as the fleece becomes loaded with impurities.
The clean fleece allows larger particles to pass, while already loaded areas retain increasingly fine particles. Unlike socks, the ClariSea automatically advances the roll to expose new media, without risk of overflow.
A high water flow through the fleece reduces the roll's lifespan. A balanced setting allows the media to gradually load before triggering automatic advancement.
The pressure required to force water through the fleece depends on the height difference between the water level in the ClariSea and that of the sump.
The ideal installation places the opening of the silent plates about 1 to 2 cm below the water surface. Excessive immersion reduces pressure and decreases the roll's lifespan.
Several parameters influence roll consumption:
1 – The water flow passing through the filter.
2 – The installation height of the filter.
3 – The cleanliness level of the tank.
4 – The fish load and the amount of food distributed.
5 – Excessive carbon dosing can cause bacterial blooms quickly captured by the fleece.
During the first few days of use, the roll's lifespan may be longer as sediments accumulated in the aquarium are gradually eliminated.
Exclusively compatible with the ClariSea SK5000 XL filter.
