DESCRIPTION
Pump
Solar Module
Solar Module Holder
Extension Piece
Ground Stake
Air Hose (2 pcs.)
Aeration Stone (2 pcs.)
Operation
Intended Use
The pond aerator is designed for light water circulation and thus for
oxygenation of small garden ponds. In summer when high temperatures are
present, a kind of “film” can build up on the pond surface and the surface
does not absorb oxygen. The oxygen level decreases. Due to the rising air
bubbles created by the pond aerator, the pond surface is constantly in motion
and oxygen can be absorbed at the surface.
Install the pump on the edge of the pond. The pump is powered via the solar
module and operated independently from the mains in direct sunlight. The pump
pumps the air through a 2 meter silicone tube to the aeration stone. Using the
ground stake the solar panel can be attached on the ground.
Assembling and Operation
- Connect the plug of the pump cable (1) to the socket at the rear of the solar module (2). Adjust the front side of the solar module directly towards the position of the sun at noontime. Setup the solar module by using the ground stake (5) that can be extended with the extension piece (4). Attach the solar module holder (3) to the top part of the solar module (see picture on the right). Avoid any form of shading in order to achieve the highest possible yield.
- Put the aeration stones (7) on the one end of the air hoses (6).
- Connect the other end of the air hoses to the pump (1).
- Roll out the cable of the pump and install the pump on the edge of the pond.
- Put the aeration stones into the pond (approx. 30 cm below the pond surface). If possible, put the aeration stones on top of some stones in the pond and not directly onto the ground level of the pond to avoid soiling of the capillary pin holes of the stone.
Notes:
- The performance of the pump depends on the season and on the position and orientation of the solar module. If there is too little sunlight, the pump may not start. In this case please use a different method to aerate the pond.
- Do not operate the pump under water.
- Clean the aeration stone in regular intervals.
- The surface of the solar module is made of glass. Be careful when assembling the system. Do not break it. There is risk of injury. A broken module cannot be repaired it has to be disposed of environmentally compatible.
- During the winter time store all components of the solar pond aerator indoors at place that is protected from dust, dirt and extreme temperatures. Clean all parts thoroughly before storing.
Cleaning the Solar Module
- Soiling on the front-side of the glass surface will reduce the incidence of light onto the solar cells and this will decrease the output of electrical power.
- In case of heavy soiling, clean the glass with usual glass cleaners. To avoid scratching the glass surface, use plenty of water and a soft brush or a cloth.
- Check the electrical cables at regular intervals for any form of damage or corrosion and for firm fit on the cable connections.
