1 Safety

1.1 Intended scope

The products described in this manual are intended to be used for the treatment of slightly

contaminated water. Water of pools, ponds, aquariums and light industry or similar for example.

The use of these products in a different situation than recommended may result in personal injury and

possible premature wear of the equipment.

1.2 Risk’s in the use of drum filters and combi filters

Despite the fact that our products are designed in such a way that the risks are minimalized there is

always a risk of dangerous situations.

A drum filter contains moving parts. The filters are equipped with safety measures to block the rotation

of the drum when the cover is opened. Be sure that this safety measure is functioning at all times.

Optionally these filters can be equipped with a build in submerged UVC. When the cover is opened

this UVC lamp will be shut off too.

If the drum will rotate, or the optional UVC will light up when the cover is opened, contact your dealer

and decommission the filter.

2 Explanation of the product

This chapter describes the connections and the controls of the TRO and BIOTRO filters.

Inlets

These are the connections for the water inlets. By the design of the filter we took a maximum flow of

12,5m³/hr per inlet into account. If you want to use the full flow capacity of the filter be sure to connect

all inlets. Also make sure that there are as few as possible knees (bents are better) and obstructions in

the pipework.

It is advisable to place valves in the supply pipes so that you can close the water supply if necessary.

Waste

The dirty rinse water is drained via this outlet during a rinse cycle. Be sure that this outlet can flow

freely and be sure that there are as few as possible obstructions. When the waste water can’t be

drained properly the filter will not perform well.

Outlets

The filtrated water exits the filter via these outlet(s)

Rinse pump

The suction port of the rinse pump is connected to this connection. In this way the rinse pump is fed

with filtered water.

If you want to have the ability to drain the filter then we advise to install a t-piece on this connection.

One end of the T-piece is connected to the rinse pump. The other connection is connected to a ball

valve.

Via the ball valve the water can be drained.

Spray bar inlet

The outlet port of the rinse pump need to be connected to the spray bar inlet. It is advised to put a fine

filter between the outlet port of the pump and the spray bar inlet. This prevents clogging of the nozzles.

Spray bar

The spray bar is used to spray the rinse water onto the filter screen. Check the nozzles for

debris/clogging on a regular base.

Water level

This connection is used to measure the water level inside the drum. An industrial pressure transmitter

is mounted. Don’t forget to connect the cable from the control box to the pressure transmitter.

Control box

The control box controls the filter. It takes care of the right rinsing procedure. It also prevents the

rotation of the drum when the cover of the filter is opened. A description of the control box can be

found in chapter 6.

Waste gutter

This is the waste gutter which collect the rinse water and debris during a rinse cycle. The waste gutter

should be checked regularly for debris. Especially when there is a lot of blanket weed or leaves in the

water the gutter will need to be cleaned regularly.

Connector for water level measurement

Upon arrival, the connector for the level measurement is disconnected. Be sure to connect the

connector to the pressure sensor before you start using the filter. Otherwise the water level is not

measured and the filter will not function properly.

Air inlet (Only BIOTRO)

To this connection an air pump must be connected for aeration of the bio carrier.

Cover switch

The cover of the filter is equipped with a magnet (white part). When the cover is closed the magnet

should in front of the cover switch. If this is not the case the filter will not operate properly because the

control box will not recognize that the cover is closed.

3 Drum filter (TRO-X models)

In this chapter, the TRO series drum filters are described. The TRO series drum filters exists out of the

following types: TRO-25, TRO-50 and the TRO-100.

3.1 Installation of the filter

The filter must be placed on a level and solid surface. The filter must be supported over the whole

surface of the bottom plate. Placing the filter on a non-flat surface or a to small baseplate can result in

serious damage!

If you want to use the full capacity of the filter, all inlets and outlets must be connected with pipes of

sufficient diameter and a minimum of bends.

Keep in mind that long lengths will also cause a reduction in capacity. The inlets and outlets are

preferably connected with rubber couplings so that any vibrations of pumps and the like are minimized.

Make sure the control box and the drive motor are protected from full sun and rain. The filter must be

installed in a frost-free area.

3.1.1 Gravity fed

The water level within the filter when there is no water circulation, must be up to the top of the waste

gutter. In such a way that the water is not overflowing into the waste gutter.

3.1.2 Pump fed

To maintain a certain water level inside the filter the outlets of the filter must be equipped with stand

pipes.

The distance between the top of the waste gutter and the top of the stand pipe (A in below sketch) is

recommended to be 70~100mm. It is advisable to put ball valves in the outlet in order to be able to

adjust the water level.

3.2 Commissioning the filter

If you have installed valves in the inlets and / or outlets, open them before using the filter. Also, make

sure that the chapter on the control box has been read and understood before starting the filter.

Then you can start the circulation pump. If the filter is properly installed and the lid is properly closed,

the water level display will be shown on the display of the control box.

3.3 De-commissioning the filter

If you want to leave the filter out of order but still want to leave it connected, it is very important to

ensure that the filter cannot freeze. If the filter is not in a frost-free space, then drain the filter and

make sure that the water is also removed from the rinse pump!

3.4 Maintenance

Before performing any maintenance on the filter, always turn off the filter by unplugging the power

cord!

Periodically, you will need to clean the filter panels. This is best done with a high-pressure cleaner.

Clean the filter panels from a distance using the high-pressure cleaner. Be careful not to damage the

filter panels due to a too small distance between the high-pressure cleaner and the filter panel.

If there is an (optional) UVC lamp installed in the filter then cleaning the filter panels will be less

frequently needed.

Also check the spray nozzles and the level sensor on clogging / contamination regularly. BE

CAREFULL TO NOT TOUCH THE MEMBRANE of the level sensor!

3.5 Problems and their solution

The filter doesn’t rinse:

•Check if the power cord is connected

•Check if the magnet on the lid is positioned in front of the cover switch

•Check and re-adjust the rinse level

•Check if the control box doesn’t show any fault conditions: (overcurrent, etc.)

The optional UVC lamp stays on when the lid of the filter is opened:

•Contact your dealer and unplug the power cord of the UVC from the control box

The water level on the display doesn’t change:

•Air is trapped in front of the level sensor, unscrew the level sensor and let the air escape,

Then install the level sensor again.

After a rinse cycle the drum keeps rotating while the rinse pump is off:

•The alarm water level setting is set higher as the rinse level setting. The rinse level setting

always must be substantially higher as the lalarm water level setting!

Repairs may only be carried out by qualified personnel. Failure to comply will void the warranty.

Maintenance to the filter may only occur if the power plug is taken from the wall outlet.

If your problem is not resolved by following any of the above procedures, contact your dealer or Tol

Watertechniek.

4 Combi filter (BIOTRO models)

In this chapter, the BIOTRO series combi filters are described. The BIOTRO series filters exists out of

the following types: BIOTRO-25, BIOTRO-50 and BIOTRO-100.

4.1 Installation of the filter

The filter must be placed on a level and solid surface. The filter must be supported over the whole

surface of the bottom plate. Placing the filter on a non-flat surface or a to small baseplate can result in

serious damage!

If you want to use the full capacity of the filter, all inlets and outlets must be connected with pipes of

sufficient diameter and a minimum of bends.

recommended to be 70~100mm. It is advisable to put ball valves in the outlet in order to be able to

adjust the water level.

4.2 Commissioning the filter

If you have installed valves in the inlets and / or outlets, open them before using the filter. Also, make

sure that the chapter on the control box has been read and understood before starting the filter.

Then you can start the circulation pump. If the filter is properly installed and the lid is properly closed,

the water level display will be shown on the display of the control box.

The bio carrier must be added in stages. Initially, we recommend to put 30% of the (optional) supplied

material in the filter.

Only when it moves completely and well can you gradually add the rest of the filter material.

It may take several weeks before the filter material moves well.

4.3 De-commissioning the filter

If you want to leave the filter out of order but still want to leave it connected, it is very important to

ensure that the filter cannot freeze. If the filter is not in a frost-free space, then drain the filter and

make sure that the water is also removed from the rinse pump!

4.4 Maintenance

•Contact your dealer and unplug the power cord of the UVC from the control box

The water level on the display doesn’t change:

•Air is trapped in front of the level sensor, unscrew the level sensor and let the air escape,

Then install the level sensor again.

The filter material (barely) moves:

•Added to much bio carrier in one time

•Too low air flow

•Too high water flow

After a rinse cycle the drum keeps rotating while the rinse pump is off:

•The low water level setting is set higher as the rinse level setting. The rinse level setting

always must be substantially higher as the low water level setting!

Repairs may only be carried out by qualified personnel. Failure to comply will void the warranty.

Explanation of the display lines

5.2.1 First line

The first line of the display shows the status of the filter. The following messages can occur:

At Rest

The filter is functioning normal, the circulation pump and optional UVC are On.

Lid open

The lid of the filter is open. The circulation pump is On but the UVC lamp is turned Off and rinsing is

prohibited.

Rinsing

The filter is performing a rinse cycle. The display shows the remaining rinse time in seconds and the

speed of the drum as a percentage.

Wait for level adjust

The filter has performed a rinse cycle but the water level has not risen far enough during the rinse. The

system is now in a waiting mode. The circulation pump and optional UV lamp are still on.

If the water level rises, the system will resume normal operation. If the water level drops further, the

system will switch to "circulation pause" mode.

If the water level does not rise above the rinse level and does not fall below the low water level within

5 minutes, the system will go into failure mode.

Circulation pause

The system switches Off the circulation pump to allow the water level to rise to above the rinse level.

The display shows the remaining time.

Alarm, Ok = Reset

The system is in alarm, the circulation pump and UV are off. The fault contact has been activated.

5.2.2 Second line

On the 2nd line of the filter, only the message "Low water low" can be found. This is the case if the

water level falls below the set alarm level for low water.

5.2.3 Third line

The 3rd line shows the actual motor current and the actual water level.

5.2.4 Fourth line

The 4th line is used to scroll through the menu for viewing and setting parameters.

By default, this line is empty, as soon as you press "Menu", the menu appears. See the following

section for an explanation of the menu.

5.3 Explanation of the menu structure

once then the menu will be shown on the 4

line of the display.

With the ↑and ↓buttons you can scroll through the menu items. With the “Ok” button a parameter can

be selected. When a parameter is selected a black digit occurs on the display. Now the value of the

selected parameter can be altered by the ↑and ↓buttons. When the “Ok” button is pressed the new

setting is confirmed and you will return to the menu.

5.4 Explanation of the menu parameters

This chapter describes the menu parameters.

Max motor cur

This parameter is used to set the maximum allowed motor current. This is used for the protection of

the drive motor.

Motor timeout

The motor timeout sets the time in second for which a too high motor current may occur. When the

over current exceeds this time, the system will malfunction.

Motor cool time

This parameter is used to set the cooldown time of the motor after an overcurrent occurred.

Rinse time

Here you can set the desired rinse time of the drum.

Drum speed

The drum speed is used to set the desired drum speed in percentage. If this parameter is set to 50%

for example, the drum rotates at 50% of its maximum speed.

Circ. pause time

This is the time in the mode “Circulation pause” to give the water level time to rise.

Rinse level

This parameter sets the desired rinse level in millimetres. The value of this parameter should be

chosen lower as the maximum water level in the drum when the circulation pump is On!

Alarm level

This setting is used to activate the alarm water level warning

Rinse Hyst.

A hysteresis is used for the rinse level to prevent jittering. This parameter sets the hysteresis in

millimetres.

Low Hyst.

Same as rinse hyst. But then applied on the low water level

Last interval

Shows the time (in minutes) between the most recent rinse cycle and the rinse cycle before that.

1 last iv

Shows between the 1 last rinse interval and the rinse cycle before that.

2 last iv

Shows the time between the 2 last rinse interval and the one before.
