Information for use
sera internal filters F 400/700/1200 adjustable
for freshwater aquariums
Please read these instructions carefully and keep for future use. When forwarding this unit to third
parties, this information for use is also to be handed over.
The sera internal filters F 400/700/1200 adjust-
able with sponge filter convince due to their com-
pact and robust construction as well as their low en-
ergy consumption and their adjustability. These F
series internal filters are being offered in 3 power
levels with the sera aquarium pumps PRECISION
P 400/700/1200. The correct power level is available
for nano aquariums up to 300 l (80 US gal.) aquarium.
Due to their plain design, the sera internal filters F
400/700/1200 adjustable can be placed unobtru-
sively in the aquarium. The high circulation perfor-
mance ensures constant conditions in the aquarium
and thus contributes to the stabilization of the bio-
logical system.
SAFETY PRECAUTION
All electrical units located in the water must be dis-
connected from the mains/power supply before con-
ducting work at the aquarium!
Kit includes
Aquarium pump PRECISION P 400/700/1200 with
suction cup holder plate and 4 suction cups; 1.5 m
(5 ft.) cable
Perforated water intake pipe with adjustment nozzle
Filter sponge with push-on opening for filter sponge
holder tube
The sera internal filter F consists of:
A: PRECISION P 400/700/1200 – Water proof hous-
ing with electric motor, steel shaft and 1.5 m
(5 ft.) power cord with plug
B: Impeller with magnet
C: Motor cover with water intake and water outlet
nozzle
D: Regulation adapter
E: Perforated water intake pipe
F: Filter sponge
G: Bracket with four suction cups
Only sera internal filter F 1200 adjustable:
H: Current distributor with Venturi nozzle and air
hose with valve
Application and application range
First, push the bracket with the four suction cups (G)
onto the chamfered side of the housing (A). Push the
thick end of the black regulation adapter (D) onto the
water intake of the motor cover (C). Then push the
thinner end of the perforated water intake pipe (E)
into the regulation adapter. Now slide the sera filter
sponge (F) over the perforated water intake pipe un-
til it touches the housing, and turn it until it is in line
with the housing. The sera internal filter F adjust-
able is now ready to use.
Adjustment of pump performance:
Install the filter in its final position in the aquarium.
Push the plug into the socket and check that the
pump performance meets your requirements. If it
does not, pull the plug and take the filter out of the
aquarium. Slide the filter sponge back slightly to al-
low access to the regulation adapter. To change the
pump's performance, turn the regulation adapter to
a new direction. Then slide the filter sponge back into
position. Repeat this procedure until you have found
the optimal flow rate of the filter.
Only sera internal filter F 1200 adjustable:
The current distributor that can be pushed onto the
outlet tube of the sera internal filter F 1200 adjust-
able allows to adjust the water flow direction. Using
the Venturi nozzle allows optimizing the oxygen sup-
ply of the aquarium. The air intake can be adjusted
with the valve (H).
Cleaning
When a loss of performance is noticed, remove the
filter sponge and coarsely rinse it under lukewarm
water.
To clean the impeller (B) the motor cover must be re-
moved. Carefully pull the outlet nozzle forward, which
flips the motor cover off the housing. Rinse the parts
under running water. Use a soft, clean brush to re-
move deposits or algae if necessary. Reassemble the
filter. Add beneficial filter bacteria (sera bio nitrivec)
onto the filter sponge to immediately make the filter
biologically active again!
Location
The pump should be placed at the aquarium glass
and be operated completely submerged. Avoid the
pump drawing in air as well.
