Product information "EHEIM aquaball 60"

An all-round convincing concept

The ball shaped pumphead sits in a ball joint and can be turned right round. Thus the outflow of the filtered water can be aimed in any direction. 

The pump output and throughflow can be set by the control knob  on the outflow nozzle. 

The  power-diffusor is adjusted to regulate the air intake and thus the oxygen enrichment in the aquarium. 

(Instead of the diffusor, other extension pieces can be used; see accessories)

 Directly under the pumphead is a mediabox. It can be filled with:

  • a filter pad for mechanical-biological filtration, 
  • a fine filter pad for fine filtration/polishing,
  • bioMECH or SUBSTRATpro for biological filtration or
  • EHEIM AKTIV for adsorptive filtration.  

Also biological as well as adsorbtive filter cartridges or filter pads can be placed in the other filter modules.

aquaball has a modular construction. This means that by adding or removing filter modules (filter baskets) you can adjust the filter volume as necessary. 

  • For extending the filter use ExtensionSET2 
  • The filter baskets can be easily clipped together and released (Easy-Klick Locking System) 
  • Due to the modular construction the filter cartridges or media can be cleaned at different intervals thus preserving bacteria cultures.

aquaball sucks in water over a large surface area. The round filter modules are designed so that the water is absorbed evenly from all sides over almost the whole surface area. 

The holder for aquaball is simply fixed to the glass with suction cups. For cleaning, exchanging modules or filling with filter media, the filter is simply removed from its holder.

Die nachlassende Leistung Ihres Innenfilters, ist mit großer Wahrscheinlichkeit keine Störung an Ihrem Gerät.

 

Dieses Pumpensystem basiert auf dem Prinzip des Synchronmotors. Dies bedeutet, dass sich das Pumpenrad mit 3000 U/min synchron zur Netzfrequenz dreht oder still steht. Auch z.B. Schwankungen der Netzspannung haben keinen Einfluss auf die Drehzahl. Aufgrund der konstanten Drehzahl fördert dieses Pumpensystem also immer die volle Leistung.

 

Es muss aber zwischen Pumpenleistung und Umwälzleistung des Filters unterschieden werden. Im Gegensatz zur konstanten Pumpenleistung, lässt die Umwälzleistung des Filters mit zunehmender Verschmutzung nach. Auch das Laufgeräusch kann mit zunehmender Verschmutzung lauter werden.

 

Das Nachlassen der Umwälzleistung des Filters liegt nach unseren Erfahrungen meist:

 

1. an verschmutzten Filterpatronen / Filtermassen.
2. An der Verwendung falscher Filtermedien.
3. an Verschmutzungen der Ansaugöffnungen oder des Auslassbereiches.
4. an der falschen Installation.

 

 

Wir empfehlen zum optimalen und störungsfreien Filterbetrieb nachfolgende Maßnahmen:

 

1. Reinigen der Filterpatronen / Filtermassen. Filterschwämme aus dem Filterbehälter entnehmen und mit lauwarmem  Leitungs- oder Aquarienwasser durchspülen. Da sich nicht alle Schmutzpartikel aus den Filterpatronen auswaschen lassen, können die Filterpatronen 2 bis 3 mal wiederverwendet werden und müssen dann ausgetauscht werden. Eventuell vorhandene Filtervliese können durch das Auswaschen verfilzen und müssen daher bei jeder Filterreinigung ausgetauscht werden. Sonst ist auch nach der Filterreinigung kein normaler Wasserdurchfluss möglich.

 

2. Überprüfen Sie Ihren Filtermassenaufbau auf die von uns empfohlenen Filtermedien, siehe Bedienungsanleitung.

 

3. Bei jeder Filterreinigung sollten auch die Ansaugöffnungen und der Auslassbereich gereinigt werden. Zur Reinigung dieser Bereiche eignet sich hervorragend das EHEIM Reinigungsbürstenset Nr.: 4009560, (siehe Bedienungsanleitung Wartung und Pflege).

 

4. Der Innenfilter sollte so eingesetzt werden, dass der Pumpenkopf knapp unter der Wasseroberfläche platziert ist. Der unterste Filtermassenbehälter sollte ca. 1 Handbreit vom Bodengrund entfernt sein damit nicht der Schmutz des Bodengrundes angesaugt wird und somit die Standzeit verkürzt. (Zur Reinigung des Bodengrundes sollte das EHEIM Bodengrund-Reinigungsset Nr. 4002510 oder der EHEIM Schlammabsauger Quick Vac, Nr. 3531 verwendet werden).

 

Hierfür gib es keine feste Regel, da zu viele Faktoren wie Größe des Aquariums, Fischbesatz, Bepflanzung, Futterart und -menge die Reinigungsintervalle beeinflussen. Wir empfehlen deshalb, erst dann eine Filterreinigung vorzunehmen, wenn die Pumpenleistung merklich nachlässt.


Ein Zeitraum von 8 Wochen sollte jedoch zwischen den Reinigungen möglich sein, bei kürzeren Reinigungsintervallen leidet die bakterielle Aktivität.

EHEIM AKTIV 140g
Active filter carbon with a high performance level – especially after treatment with medications EHEIM AKTIV is acid washed and activated for automatic water absorption (active surface area 1200 m²/g). Thus, it very quickly binds harmful chemical substances like pesticides, medical treatment residues and other substances and retains them. The water in the aquarium will turn crystal clear. Its use is particularly important after treating the livestock with medications. EHEIM AKTIV should only be used for a limited amount of time (ca. 4 weeks) and then removed or replaced. In the filter’s layering set-up EHEIM AKTIV should be used directly after the mechanical (e.g. EHEIM MECH or MECHpro) and the biological filter media (e.g. EHEIM SUBSTRATpro) in the net bag provided. Active carbon for self-activating adsorption Quickly binds chlorine, pesticides and other chemical substances Use e.g. after new tank installation or treatment with medications Use only for a limited period of time (ca. 4 weeks) Suitable for fresh and marine water Tip:Only use adsorptive filter media for a few weeks, as the harmful substances are only attached and can loosen after some time and be reintroduced into the water. At the very least they should be changed regularly. Normally adsorptive filtration is only necessary during aquarium set-up or after treatments with medications.

EHEIM phosphateout 130g
Depending on which type, chemical filter media control the pH-value and the water hardness (peat) – or reduce the phosphate level and inhibit the growth of algae (phosphateout). The pH-value of mains water lies between 7,3 and 7,8 and is therefore slightly alkaline. However, most ornamental fish require acidic water  – that is a pH-value under 7,0. EHEIM TORFpellets lower the pH-value and reduce the water hardness. Phosphates mainly occur due to organic pollutants in the aquarium water (fish remains, fish faeces etc.) and are responsible for the growth of algae. EHEIM phosphateout binds the phosphate and removes it from the water circulation.EHEIM phosphateout Chemically acting phosphate remover inhibiting the growth of algae EHEIM phosphateout is a special iron compound for chemical filtration. The iron binds the phosphate, removing it  from the water circulation and thus reducing in stages the phosphate levels in the aquarium. In this way algae growth in the aquarium is inhibited. If the phosphate levels and consequently the growth of algae starts to increase, this means that the filter medium is depleted and must be replaced. EHEIM phosphateout is available for external filters in granulate form and for internal filters as a foam filter cartridge. It is free from harmful substances and suitable for fresh and marine water.   Phosphate remover inhibits growth of algae Iron compound, free from harmful substances Suitable for fresh and marine water Use once (replace when the phosphate levels start to increase) For external filters available in granulate form, for internal filters as a foam filter cartridge EHEIM phosphateout for internal filters aquaball and biopower For the internal filters aquaball and biopower there are special foam cartridges available instead of granules. They are impregnated with the iron compound which binds the phosphates. If the phosphate levels in the water start to increase, this means that the cartridge is depleted and must be replaced.

EHEIM bioMECH 680g
Generally speaking, mechanical filter media trap larger dirt particles. Biological filter media, on the other hand, provide the correct conditions for the colonisation of bacteria cultures: the purification bacteria feed off the dirt particles and convert them. Above all, in this way clear, healthy water and stabile water values are arrived at in the aquarium.Our latest development is a combination filter medium, which simultaneously carries out both mechanical and biological functions. EHEIM bioMECH Mechanical-biological filter medium for combined water treatmentbioMECH has been cleverly designed: dirt-trapping pockets capture and retain large and small dirt particles. At the same time the subtely designed pore structure provides colonisation for the purification bacteria and thus ensures reliable biological decomposition. The material is pH-neutral and does not contain water hardeners. EHEIM bioMECH is washable and reusable many times over. Specially designed filter medium for simultaneous mechanical and biological water purification The material is pH-neutral and without water hardeners   Reusable (wash out carefully, in order not to destroy the bacteria cultures)

EHEIM SUBSTRATpro 180g
The main task of biological filter media is to offer the best colonisation conditions for the bacteria cultures, so that after a short time a bacteria lawn develops. The bacteria feed on dirt particles of all kind and convert substances critical for the aquarium. After the first cleaning process by the mechanical filter media (e.g. EHEIM MECH or MECHpro) the biological filtration is the most important. It provides for clear, healthy water and stabile water values. That’s why we have invested a lot of research work into the development of biological filter media. Tip:Never clean or change all the filter media together in one operation (and never clean too rigorously). The bacteria cultures must not be completely destroyed, otherwise recolonisation will be retarded. The filter baskets in the external filters and filter modules in the internal filters aquaball and         biopower are ideal for partial cleaning.Optimised bio-filter medium with perfect volume usage, long intervals between cleaning and top decomposition performance. SUBSTRATpro consists of pearl-shaped sintered glass. The spherical shape gives a high bulk density. Thus the whole of the volume in the filter (filter baskets or modules) can be utilised. Also the optimum surface of the beads provides intensive colonisation of the important purification bacteria. Due to the high number of bacteria, peak nitrite loads are more easily reduced and the maintenance intervals of the filter material are longer.EHEIM SUBSTRATpro is suitable for fresh and marine water, is washable and can be reused. Optimised bio-filter medium made from sintered glass High bulk density due to spherical shape (beads) Very dense colonisation of bacteria Longer intervals between cleaning Better reduction of nitrite loads Reusable (rinse carefully to clean) Suitable for fresh and marine water
