Turboflotor 10000

The Aqua Medic Turboflotor 10000 is a bigger version of our proven Turboflotor 5000 series. As with the smaller

skimmers, it is manufactured from injection moulded ABS fittings and acrylic tube. A powerful pump is combined

with a venturi to provide an injection of 3,500 l/h.

The maximum water flow rate is 10,000 litres (2,638 gallons) per hour. For larger installations, several units

may run in parallel.

1. Application

The Turboflotor 10000 is designed for larger tanks in public aquaria and for commercial use for pet fish importers

and distributors. It is used for closed aquaculture systems such as import or export holding units for lobster,

crayfish and oysters, as well as for fish breeding or growing on fingerlings of commercial fish or shrimp.

2. Basics

During the protein skimming process, organic pollutants in the aquarium water i. e. protein compounds formed

by the excretions of animals, are attached to fine air bubbles as a mono-molecular film. These air bubbles are

pushed against the inflowing water in the reaction pipe so that there is a long contact time. Enriched with organic

substances, they rise to the top and form a strong foam which is dehydrated in the reaction pipe and then

passes into the collection cup. Using this method, removal of organic pollutants from the aquarium water takes

place whereas during bacterial processes they are merely transformed and not removed.
