To prime the system, plug in and switch on the biological trapping filter with ®c.o.d. and high flow ®bioskimmer. Turn the box top high flow cyclonic ®bioskimmer/®skimbob/tidal air control valve knob which is mounted on ®bioskimmer foam collection cup lid and ties into the ®bioskimmer/®skimbob air injection tubing counter-clockwise to the open position so that the valve is no longer seated.
Next, listen for the priming sound of the evaporative high flow ®bioskimmer, (a silent hum here signifies a pump impeller cavitation is taking place); if impeller cavitation is evident, power on and off the unit to achieve full air release from the evaporative high flow ®bioskimmer and the sound of water agitation is present for the completion of final priming.
Full priming of the evaporative high flow ®bioskimmer can be confirmed by removing the ®bioskimmer foam collection cup lid with its attached ®bioskimmer foam collection cup float level indicator, ®bioskimmer foam collection cup float level indicator ball, and peering down through the center of the ®bioskimmer foam collection cup neck to view inside the high flow ®bioskimmer neck. When primed properly, a steady flow of oxygenated bubbles can be seen rapidly crossing over the evaporative high flow ®bioskimmer’s first internal staging chamber.
As the dual head system pump w/ venturi draws in water, the untreated liquid is drawn in from both the top and bottom of the habitat area’s water column. Firstly, it arrives via the box bottom enclosure housing’s lower box bottom deep pull keyed extension down pipe in-flow slot of the box bottom deep pull keyed extension down pipe and the vac skimbob assembly if present, and the corresponding deep pull extension down pipe strainer and the extension down pipe strainer sponge media pre-filter if present. (These being bypassed if the box bottom down pipe bypass plug is used which increases intake water flow at the top surface water skimming slots) and Secondly, it arrives via the same sets of top surface water skimming slots.
