1.
Sedimentation Chamber
This chamber is designed to physically separate solids from the
incoming water. Scum is the floating material and sludge is the
material that has settled at the bottom.
2.
Anaerobic Filtration Chamber
This chamber contains a spherical skeleton-type filter media,
4.3 inch diameter (109 mm). Through bacterial growth
processes on the surface of the filter media, biological anaerobic
treatment thrives while suspended solids are captured.
Furthermore, the microorganisms in this chamber convert
nitrates in the recirculated water returning from the aerobic
contact filtration chamber to gaseous nitrogen. The gaseous
nitrogen then escapes to the atmosphere.
Figure 3 - Treatment Flow of the Fusion
The complete wastewater treatment system will typically consist of
the Fusion
treatment components and a soil absorption field for final
®
disposal of the liquid effluent. Some states or counties may require
the addition of a septic tank before the Fusion
sedimentation chamber capacity and retain more solids. Please see
Figure 10 for a typical Fusion
system. Variations to the typical system
®
will be made to suit your particular site and system design needs.
Please contact your authorized Fusion
provider for further information about your system design.
THE FUSION
SINGLE-PORT BLOWER
®
The Fusion
treatment unit comes with an electronic, single-port
®
blower. The blower utilizes a linear motor and two diaphragms to
generate the air flow necessary to aerate and recirculate water within
the system. This style of compressor is quieter and more efficient
than traditional rotary vane compressors.

Aerobic Contact Filtration Chamber
The upper section is filled with board contact media and the
lower section is filled with hollow, mesh, cylidrical filter media.
Water is adjusted and organic matters are decomposed by
aerobic micro-organisms /bacteria in the upper section as water
goes in. Biological aeration treatment and nitrification (convert
ammoniac nitrogens to nitrates) take place with the help of the
micro-organisms /bacterial growth on the filter media surface
while suspended solids are captured in the lower section.

Clean Water Storage Chamber
This chamber is designed to temporarily store treated water
exiting the aerobic contact filtration chamber. This treated water
is ready for discharge.

ALARM PANEL (sold separately)
The Fusion
alarm panel (See Figure 4) is designed to activate an
®
audible buzzer and red beacon light on top of the panel if there is a
drop in air pressure, or if a high water condition occurs. (Note: The
alarm panel can only function as long as there is electrical power
supplied to the panel.)
You may periodically check the proper operation of the alarm panel
by toggling the black switch on the side of the panel to "test". The
buzzer will sound and the red beacon will light as long as you hold
the switch in the "test" position. Release the switch for normal
operation.
