Pond Turnover Rates: The pond stocking levels will determine the required turnover rate which in turn determines the required pump flow rate. Typically, an ornamental pond without any fish will require the pond volume to be circulated at least once every 6 hours; an average stocked pond (with up to 1 kg of fish for every 1000 litres) will require circulating once every 4 hours; a heavily stocked pond including Koi (with up to 3 kg of fish for every 1000 litres) will require circulating once every 2 hours. Filtoclear Set pump selections allow for increased pressure drop across the filter foams as they become polluted with pond waste (see the importance of regular maintenance, below).
Pump Flow Rate: The pump flow rate, typically in litres per hour (lph) or litres per minute (lpm) is determined by the vertical lift, in metres, from the surface of the pond to the outlet pipe AND by the friction losses through the system. The narrower the pipe bore the higher the friction losses, so always use the maximum hose diameter. There will also be a friction loss caused across the filter media (foams etc), which will increase as they become polluted with pond waste.
Effect of raising the filter outlet: Raising the outlet pipe height, typically for a watercourse or waterfall, will reduce the flow rate from the pump thereby increasing the amount of time it takes to circulate the dirty pond water through the filter. This effectively reduces the maximum pond volume that the filter system can cope with and may mean you will require a larger pump. Please contact us and we would be happy to advise you.
Dissolved oxygen (DO) is a major contributor to water quality. Installing an optimally sized OASE OxyTex Aerator Set will substantially improve water quality and fish and can improve filter performance by up to 25%. See the chart above for improvements in pond volume.
The importance of regular maintenance (cleaning): High flow rate = effective filtering. As the filter media (e.g. foams) remove dirt and waste from the pond, so the friction loss across the foams will increase, thereby reducing the flow rate and the effective performance of the filter. It is therefore essential, especially for those systems with a raised outlet, to keep the filter foams clean. Fortunately, this is extremely easy with OASE Filtoclear pond filters.
An option worth consideration.
You could split the flow of clean water exiting your Filtoclear filter by utilizing a Y Distibutor, with one branch flowing directly at low level (low head = maximum flow) back to the pond; and the other branch flowing up to the top of your watercourse (high head = reduced flow). By adjusting the Y Distributor outlet valves to suit your preference you can choose to have all or partial flow going to the pond or watercourse. So typically, when there is nobody in the garden you select full maximum, low level flow back to the pond (high level valve closed), thereby achieving optimum filtration. However, when you are in the garden, you can open up the valve to the watercourse to enjoy the pleasant sound of water running down your watercourse. Note, to achieve maximum flow over the watercourse, fully close the low level valve and fully open the high level valve.

OASE Engineers have developed the all-new BioTec Premium 80000 Pond Filter for the most demanding ornamental, fish or Koi Carp stocked ponds. The compact filtration system contains the automated Drum Filter to screen out debris particles before the biological processing takes place, all within the same compact module.
The revolutionary, integrated drum filter is based on the same technology as Oase's highly successful ProfiClear Premium Drum Filter Module, screening out the very finest particles such as fish waste, string algae, leaf debris and potentially harmful nutrient rich detritus down to 150 microns (1 1/2 x thickness of a human hair).
Specially developed Filter Foams with a significant surface area are used after the Drum Module to house beneficial bacteria, helping to break down pathogens, phosphates and nutrients, resulting in crystal clear pond water. As the automated drum filter is removing solid waste particles before entering the foam media segment, the sponges require far less frequent cleaning compared to more conventional filtration systems.
The BioTec Premium 80000 Filtration System is capable of processing ornamental ponds of up to 80,000 Litres (17,770 Gallons); Fish stocked ponds of up to 40,000 Litres (8,880 Gallons) or Koi Carp stocked ponds of up to 20,000 Litres (4,440 Gallons).
The latest generation of OASE Proficlear Drum and Moving Bed Filtration, Bitron UVC, Aquamax Eco Pump and AP Aeration technology is combined to produce effective and efficient particle removal and high intensity treatment of suspended algae and pathogens in ponds or lakes, thereby achieving ultimate water clarity and health. Water Garden UK has carefully matched individual modules and components to achieve the optimum pond and lake water cleaning system for a variety of pond volumes.
The Proficlear Premium Set 1 (Pump Fed) System is comprised of the following components:
The Proficlear Premium Filter Set 1 is suitable for the following pond sizes:
Proficlear Premium Filter Set 1 (Pump Fed)
OASE Aquamax Eco Premium 12000 Filter Pump transports coarse debris up to 11mm Ø and features Eco motor technology for minimum power consumption. The submersed pump is then usually connected to the Bitron UV Clarifier using 2" internal diameter Flexible Hose.
The OASE Bitron 110C Ultraviolet Clarifier provides 110 watts of concentrated UVC power that effectively kills suspended algae, harmful bacteria and germs which are then delivered to the;
OASE Proficlear Premium Pump Fed (NOT Gravity fed) Drum Filter Module is the vital core of the system with deep bed filtration that removes coarse debris particles down to 60 microns and ensures crystal clear water. Pollutant rakes on the filter sieves remove string algae and large particles from the rotating drum. A powerful integral high pressure pump automatically cleans and flushes the sludge to waste. An intelligent microcontroller monitors and controls the Drum Filter's adjustable main functions. The mechanically processed pond water is then passed to the;
OASE Proficlear Premium Moving Bed Module is supplied with a total of 50 litres of Hel-X biomedia, which will populate with beneficial micro-organisms for effective biological nutrient reduction and removal of toxins such as ammonium/ammonia and nitrite. The built in aerator bar provides beneficial oxygen enrichment and turbulence when connected to the supplied AP4800 Air Pump. An additional 50 Litres of Hel-X Filter Media can be added to the Moving Bed Module if desired to further increase biological filtration.
OASE Proficlear Premium Individual Module is the final system module and provides 2 x DN 110 outlets and is the perfect vehicle for adding (if required) filter media such as Zeolite or Phosless (phosphate binder) or fish medications and treatments. The Individual Module can also be fitted with up to 2 optional Bitron Gravity 55w Ultraviolet Clarifiers (not supplied), offering up to 110 watts of additional UV clarification.
Please Note; The Proficlear Premium Koi Pond Filter Set 1 DOES NOT include the following items which will be different for each individual pond installation
Flexible hose and hose clips between the Aquamax Twin Filter Pump & entry into the Bitron Eco Ultraviolet Clarifier.

With the Proficlear Premium Pump Fed module the filter system is installed above ground and above the pond water level. Polluted water is fed into the filter via an Aquamax ECO Twin or Premium pump. Typically, a Bitron C Ultraviolet Clarifier (UVC) will be fitted directly onto the drum filter module inlet.
Proficlear Premium Pond Filters - Technical Information

The drum filter module incorporates an intelligent control centre that removes course debris, and thereby most of the nutrient matter, from the pond water before it reaches the biological filter media in the Moving Bed and Individual modules. The unique filter design with a 25m³/hr (25,000 litres/hr) maximum flow rate ensures crystal clear water. The intelligent microcontroller system automatically monitors and controls the filtration process. The automatic self-cleaning function parameters can be individually adjusted to meet local conditions. The efficient automatic cleaning cycle uses just 1.5 litres of pond water to complete the drum cleaning operation. |

Please note: in cases of extreme temperature variations due to shallow pond (less than 75cm) or location in continuous direct sunlight (south facing); higher friction losses due to longer hose lengths; or higher delivery heads we recommend discussing your requirements with our technical support team.
All references regarding Oase filter / UVC combinations for special pond sizes are based on Mid-European climatic conditions. For other regions they could differ due to ambient and water temperatures.

Rules of thumb
How to select the correct UVC power for your pond | ||
Ponds without fish stock: | 1 Watt UVC power per m³ pond volume | |
Ponds with fish stock: | 2 Watt UVC power per m³ pond volume | |
Ponds with koi stock: | 4 Watt UVC power per m³ pond volume | |

How to calculate the required pump flow rate for your pond | |
Ponds without fish stock: | Turnover capacity (in m³/hr) = pond size/ 8 |
Ponds with fish stock: | Turnover capacity (in m³/hr) = pond size/ 4 |
Ponds with koi stock: | Turnover capacity (in m³/hr) = pond size/ 2 |
Example 1: A 40m³ (40,000 litres) pond without fish would require a 40/8 = 5m³/hr turnover (5000 ltr/hr) | |
Example 2: A 40m³ (40,000 litres) pond with fish would require a 40/4 = 10m³/hr turnover (10000 ltr/hr) | |
Example 3: A 40m³ (40,000 litres) pond with koi would require a 40/2 = 20m³/hr turnover (20000 ltr/hr) | |
Note: A pump should be selected that can achieve the required turnover capacity at the relevant discharge head | |
The discharge head should include the vertical lift plus friction losses through the pipe work | |
