Thermofilter
By the thermofilter version
please check that the
flow-through pipe ope-
nings are not placed direc-
tly above the heating ele-
ment.
Check to ensure that the sealing gasket on the pump head
of the filter is not soiled and that it is properly placed into its
groove.
Place the pump head onto the filter canister so that the input
connector of the pump head is lined up with the input guide
of the media containers. Close all four EZ clips.
ATTENTION: Before the integrated double tap connector is
inserted into the pump head of the filter, examine all three o-
rings for damage and correct fitting. Lightly grease the o-
rings with Vaseline to help installation.
Insert the integrated double tap connector with the locking
clamp in an upright position into the opening on the pump
head. To fasten the locking clamp into its sealed position
push the handle downwards.
Tubing installation
Shut off the integrated double tap connector by shifting the
two levers to the
OFF position. Push the enclosed tubing onto
the intake and output openings of the integrated double tap
connector as far as they will go. Since this can be a relatively
difficult task, soak the hoses in warm water beforehand to
make them softer.
It is very important to use original EHEIM hoses only.
Place the two-part hose clamp around the installed hoses,
hang into the proper position and clip into place.
Place the now ready-to-use filter into the lower cabinet of your
aquarium stand and observe the prescribed installation height:
between water surface and base of filter there should be max.
180 cm (5'11'') in order to attain optimum functioning.
