Introduction
The drum filter is designed and built to filter ponds. The purpose of the filter is to keep a pond free from
dirt and harmful bacteria without the addition of additives. The filter is controlled remotely using a tablet
or smart Phone. Do-it filtertechniek cannot be held responsible for any damage caused by improper or
unwise use. Read and understand this manual completely.
The construction of the drum filter is as follows; A plastic container, whose inner tube beams are
provided with an aluminium reinforcement to prevent these parts from warping. The plastic container is
divided into three partially open compartments where dirty water flows from the first compartment
through the drum filter to the second compartment. The dirt is left in the drum and the water flows to
the third compartment at the bottom. Here the water is mixed with the bio medium. When the drum is
contaminated, it is recorded by a pressure sensor that then spins the drum, whereby the drum is
pressurised by means of clean pond water. The dirt falls into a gutter in the filter and is drained to a waste
water drain.
Do-it filtertechniek displays a CE marking in terms of the drum filter. The drum filter complies with the
Machinery directive and the underlying relevant standards. Safety must always be ensured, so that the
end-user can safely use the drum filter.
The drum filter is driven by a connection to 230volt.

Installation
System specific requirements
The correct arrangement and a constant water level in the pond are important conditions for a
optimal and trouble-free operation of the Drum Filter.
Create filter shaft:
•Dig a sufficiently large pit for the filter system, taking into account any maintenance work on electrical
components and/or pipes.
•Align the bottom plate horizontally (level).
•Secure the walls of the pit against subsidence of the ground (bricklaying, concreting)
•Protect the pit from flooding. Ensure a drainage of rainwater.
Set up the filter system:
•Set the maximum water level for the pond.
•The bottom plate, on which the filter system stands, must be below the maximal water level according to
installation size A. see installation size A in the technical data on page 8 (max. tolerance: -5 mm).
•Keeping water levels constant.
•For the operation of the gravitational system, a constant water level in the pond is necessary.
−Tolerances up to -5 mm from the max. water level are allowed.
−If the max. water level in the pond is exceeded, the water flows away through the waste chute in the
drum filter, until the maximum water level is reached again..
−If the maximum water level is exceeded by more than 20 mm, optimal or trouble-free operation is not
possible.

Connect
Supply of dirty water
The drum filter has 3 or more connections for the dirt water (DN 110.
•Use suitable pipelines DN 110 to connect the bottom drains and/or the surface skimmer(s).
The advice is to use flexible couplings on the DN110 connections.
•Place valves between the connections, so that in the event of any malfunctions or maintenance, the
waste water supply can be cut off.
Dirty water connections.
Connecting waste water drainage
Via the discharge for coarse dirt particles (upper spout on the reservoir DN110 on the input side)
the coarse dirt particles collected in the waste chute flow away.
Connect a suitable pipeline DN 110 and drain the dirty water to a waste water drain.
The advice is to use flexible couplings on the DN110 connections.
Waste water connection.

Versie: 04 / 2019
Commissioning
Clean the pond thoroughly at first commissioning, so that the filter system is not overloaded due to over-polluted
water.
With a newly constructed pond, cleaning can usually be cancelled.
Order of commissioning
How to proceed:
1. Check the entire filter system (pipelines and hoses) for completeness.
2. Remove the lid from the Drum Filter.
3. Open the valves of the dirty water supply and fill the Drum Filter.
4. Insert the powerplug into the socket when the filter is completely filled with water.
5. Manually turn the filter drum completely once, so that free running is guaranteed.
6. Place the lid back on the Drum Filter when the correct water level in the compartments is reached.
•When the lid is open, the Drum Filter will not turn on.
7. Check all pipelines, hoses and their connections for tightness.
•Expanding seals can initially be unsealed, because they only seal completely at water contact.
8. Set drum level.
9. Optionally set level pond pump (set pond pump level)
WAARSCHUWING! Schakel nooit de energietoevoer in als er geen
water in het filter staat. Borg deze tegen ongewenst inschakelen

Control from a webserver
For trouble-free operation, it is necessary to set the level detection correctly.
With a pump-fed system, the water level in the filter system does not only depend on the water level of the pond. But the
water level in the filter system also depends on the circulation capacity. Therefore, a water level setting may be required if
one is going to move more or less water.
You can change the settings of the filter with a tablet or a smart phone or even your PC.
Connect to a smartphone or tablet using wifi
➢First connect via the Wi-Fi signal FSBPI (password = hotspotfsbpi )
➢Then open the browser (for example, Chrome or Opera)
➢Use the web address http://192.168.4.1 to access the login page.
➢For installation instructions of the web server see paragraph 9
Connecting the web server to a local network
➢Access your router from your local area network (see router user manual how) and log into your router
➢Find the DHCP client list and see which devices are listed
➢Connect a UTP LAN cable to the RJ45 jack (WAN) of the web server and the other end of the cable to your LAN
connection of the Local area network router. (and connect the web server to the power outlet with the adapter if it
is not already done)
➢Log in to your LAN router again and see which device has now been added to the DHCP client list and remember the
IPv4 address.
➢In your router's device table, there should be an option to make the device's IPv4 address static (also called
"reserved" or "permanent lease time," see the router's user manual on how to do this)
Now that you know the IPv4 address, you can connect to the web server from any device on the local network
using http://aaa.bbb.ccc. ddd (where aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd is the preserved IPv4 LAN address of the web server)
Connecting to the web server from a remote network
➢First, make sure that the steps of point 8. 2 works and that you can connect to the web server as explained there.
➢In order for the LAN IPv4 address to receive calls from outside the LAN network, we need to forward a port in the
LAN router.
➢See in the user manual of your LAN router where and how to set up port forwardingfor an iPv4 address. (sometimes
called a virtual server)
➢With port forwarding, we now have to create a new rule.
➢As a rule, we first fill in aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd, (where aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd is the retained IPv4 LAN address of the web server
which often starts with 192.168.ccc.ddd or 10.0.ccc.ddd)
➢As a local port, we choose port 80 because this is the Http port that we connect to the web server on the local
network.
➢As a public port, we can choose any port other than the ports reserved for other servers.
➢So as a public gate, for example, we could choose port 1112 (as it is not reserved)
➢For protocol we can choose both tcp and udp.
➢Now we can enable and save the rule.
➢Find your public IPv4 address provided by your provider (see for instance http://www.whatismyip.com ).
➢Use your public IPv4 address yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy with the public port 1112 to connect to the web server.
➢Open your web browser and on the address line fill in http://yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy:1112 (where yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy is the IPv4
public adress you found) and press enter.
➢Now you need to be connected to your web server from a network other than your local network.
