6.1. Safety instructions
-
Protect the controller from splash water and condensation.
-
Clean the pump, air hose and hose connection regularly to remove dirt, limescale and salt deposits.
-
Do not allow the pump to run dry.
6.2. Installation
The skimmer is attached with the bracket to the separating pane in the middle chamber (Fig. 2, No. 7). No
fastening screws can be used there. The O-ring (Fig. 6, No. 9), which holds the bracket in place, should be fitted
as high up as possible on the skimmer body. For optimum operation, the skimmer should be slightly immersed
in the water and the silencer (Fig. 6, No. 6) should protrude from the top of the aquarium.
The maximum water level is determined by the water level in the last chamber with the return pump (Fig. 2, No.
8). If the water level is too high for the skimmer, the water level in the skimmer chamber (Fig. 2, No. 7) can only
be lowered by removing water from the last chamber (Fig. 2, No. 8), at least to the height of the separating pane
in this chamber (Fig. 2, No. 3).
The controller is connected to the connection cable of the venturi pump, and the power supply unit is connected
to the controller. The power supply unit and controller must be protected from moisture, splash water and
condensation. After plugging the power supply unit into a socket, press the Down button on the controller until
no air production can be seen in the skimmer. Then press the Up button once or twice. Normally, this is the
optimum setting for a normal water load. In freshly set up aquaria, air is initially introduced into the aquarium.
This will disappear once the aquarium has been stocked with animals and run in.
In normal operation, the skimmer is mounted in the filter chamber so that it can be closed with the cover. Cables
are routed through the corresponding cut-outs. The skimmer lid must not rest directly against the cover so that
air can escape through the hole in the lid. If you want the skimmer to protrude a little further out of the water,
you can remove the filter cover and increase the air output using the controller.
The skimmer's foam cup has to be emptied and cleaned regularly.
7.
Lighting
LED-lighting Qube 30 (lease refer to the separate manual).
See Fig. 1 for mounting.
The Qube 30 can be operated at full power on the Yasha. A separate timer (not included) is used to set a lighting
duration of 12 hours, which corresponds to the length of a tropical day.
8.
Accessories (optional)
8.1. mini heater 75 watts
We recommend the mini heater 75 w for heating water in heated living spaces. It has a permanently set
thermostat that maintains the water temperature at around 25 °C. It can be installed in the left-hand inlet
chamber.
8.2. T-meter
A T-meter or other suitable thermometer is used to monitor the aquarium temperature. It is attached to a side
pane of the aquarium so that it is easy to read.
8.3. multi reactor S Gen II
The bracket supplied with the Yasha is used for attachment. This holder is used to attach the reactor in the right-
hand chamber with the return pump to the left of the pane (Fig. 2, No. 3), through which the water flows into
the chamber. The lateral water level control (Fig. 2, No. 2) can be used to check whether, for example, the
biopellets used are floating optimally.
8.4. SmartDrift 3.1
To provide additional flow, a SmartDrift 3.1 can be attached to one of the side panes. Normally, 30 - 50% power
is sufficient.
