AquaBead


AquaBead Filters

AquaBead Filters

The AquaBead series of filtration systems combine all the latest incremental improvements to provide the ultimate in pond filtration.  Quality components and construction make the AquaBead a logical choice.

  • Swirl Input - Provides heavy waste settling while ensuring uniform distribution of flow through the bead media.
  • Sludge Removal Drain - Ensures complete removal of heavy wastes with each backwash.
    Serviceable union drain valve.
  • Clear double union spring check valve.
  • Sturdy fiberglass construction.
  • High-flow, low-pressure systems that are designed for low amp draw pumps.
  • Complete hydraulic backwash with no dirty discharge to the pond.
  • Full feature, 6-position multi-port valve, the least restrictive valve available.
  • Life Support System allows for an optional air pump to oxygenate the filter during medical bypass or pump failure.
  • Small footprint - Ideal for space limited applications.
  • Easy installation
  • Air blower system included.

AlphaOne

AlphaOneThe AlphaONE system employs a mixed media design. The media comes in two shapes mixed together and as the media nests together in its pack, tremendous amounts of solids can be trapped without going anaerobic. The solids are easily dispersed when the media agitator is engaged to break up the pack and release the solids out to backwash. Each shape has specially designed ridges around the outside to promote beneficial bacterial growth, but not so long as to cause the media to interlock. Interlocking media, used on some filters, does not come apart when agitated. The shorter, more optimal ridge feature was carefully designed and tested to ensure that the filter would function perfectly in the long run.

The AlphaONE internals are designed slightly differently than the AquaBead filters. This new design provides maximum flow with the least maintenance and the lowest possible head loss of any filter of its type. With the internals using larger slotted openings on the AlphaONE, there is no need for a sludge drain.

AquaOne LH (Lower Head)

AquaOne LH (Lower Head)

Even though the AlphaONE is regarded as the one of the least restrictive filters on the market we have found a way to improve even more. Most of the restriction with a pressurized system comes from the Multiport valve. On the AlphaONE LH the water bypasses the Multiport valve on the regular filtration mode and only travels through the Multiport valve on the “Backwash” mode thus giving you the least restrictive filter available. On the AlphaONE LH we reworked the internals slightly for even greater flow through.

This allows the use of a smaller, lower amperage pump to move the same amount of water. The AlphaONE LH was designed for the pond keeper that has energy efficiency as a top priority.

All of the AquaBead AlphaONE Filters utilize the AquaSwirl internal Vortex spinning design that spins heavier solids to the center of the bottom of the vessel. AquaBead filters also feature the AquaBead Life Support System, known as "ALISS", which keeps beneficial bacteria alive indefinitely during times of medical shutdowns, pumps failures, etc. The 2" Clear Union Spring Check Valve located right under the blower provides maximum flow and has built-in unions. If you should ever have to replace the spring check valve, it is no big deal. Just unscrew the top and bottom of the valve, remove the valve body, replace with a new body and re-hand tighten the two unions. Total repair time is under 2 minutes!
