How to calculate the right UVC power for your pond
Ponds
without fish stock: 1 W
UVC power per m
3
pond volume
Ponds
with fish stock:
2 W
UVC power per m
3
pond volume
Ponds
with koi stock
:
4 W
UVC power per m
3
pond volume
Note: To keep the bacterial load low in the koi pond, the Bitron Gravity should be operated with a max.
flow rate of 12.5 m³/h. In this regard recirculation of 55% of the pond volume/h should be the objective.
These recommendations are already considered in the table above.
Biological performance of the Hel-X
Bio medium in the Moving Bed Module:
50 l of Hel-X decomposes approx 300g of fish food per day. If necessary,
the fill level already contained can be extended from 50 l to 100 l
(600 g fish food) per Moving Bed Module with an additional aeration.
Up to 3 Moving Bed Modules per row can be inserted in succession.
Among other factors, biological performance depends on tempera
ture, food quality and the degree to which the Hel-X is settled with
microorganisms.

This table considers the usual flow losses within the filter system.
All references regarding our Filter/UVC combinations for special pond sizes are based on Mid-European climatic conditions.
For other regions they could differ due to the water temperature and sun intensity.

The filter system must be operated in two filter rows
that are separate from each other.
