intervals of approx. 12 months in order to ensure the optimum function and operating quietness of the pump. Inquire at your
specialist retailer for assistance.

Recommendation:

If you wish to operate the pump JUWEL Eccoflow in a seawater aquarium, you will need the JUWEL Eccoflow ceramic shaft set
for the impeller. Item No. 85225 for pump JUWEL Eccoflow 500/600/1000. Item No. 85226 for pump Juwel Eccoflow 1500.

The power plugs of the electrical devices must not become moist. Connect
the power plugs to the power supply at such a height that the connection
cable forms a loop which would enable the water to drip down.

•

At all times, only operate the electrical devices for your aquarium (lighting,
heater, pump etc.) using an earth leakage circuit breaker (EL circuit breaker)
with a maximum tripping current of 30 mA. If the socket that you are using in
your home installation is not safeguarded with such a circuit breaker, please
use a commercially available power strip with an integrated earth leakage
circuit breaker.

•

The electrical devices may only be operated in rooms.•

Pull the power plug of all devices operated in water before coming into
contact with the water.

•

Never operate the power head out of water.•

Always unplug the power head from the power supply before removing it from the filter.•

The pump JUWEL Eccoflow

The new pump JUWEL Eccoflow distinguishes itself with operating quietness and a high flow rate. The new design and the
improved technology make the use and the maintenance even easier. Utilising the enclosed adapters, the pump JUWEL
Eccoflow is suitable as replacement for the pumps JUWEL Bioflow and also the JUWEL pump types 300/500/600/1000/1500.

The new pump JUWEL Eccoflow essentially consists of:

1. Motor

2. Impeller with axle and rubber mounts

3. Pump adapter for the JUWEL filter system Bioflow

4. Connection ring for the JUWEL Compact, Standard H and Jumbo filter system
(Pump adapter Order No. 85136)

Installation of the pump JUWEL Eccoflow in the filter system Bioflow
Super, M, L & XL

Please ensure that the impeller has been properly inserted and the pump adapter
has been firmly connected to the motor prior to the installation of the new pump.

Please proceed as follows:

1. Disconnect all electrical devices of the aquarium from the power grid.

2. Remove the outlet nozzles and remove the old pump from the filter.

3. Insert the new pump into the separation wall of the filter and firmly push it into
place.

4. Connect the outlet nozzle to direct the waterflow as desired from the outside to
the outlet opening of the pump. Reinstall the gasket into the round opening of the
filter housing when connecting the outlet. This decreases vibration transmissions.

Now the pump is ready for operation and you may reconnect the electrical devices
to the power grid.
