In-situ Floc Dosing System

Easy to apply to any new or existing filtration system

Unlike public swimming pools, where automatic dosing of flocculant is indispensable to guarantee clear and high-quality swimming water, this technique is hardly used in private pools.

UNTIL NOW!

e-Flock offers a unique system to optimize water quality and enjoy crystal-clear, sparkling pool water.

Operation of e-Flock

General

e-Flock significantly enhances the performance of the filtration system. e-Flock ensures that smaller dirt particles (<50 microns) are still absorbed by the filter and discharged to the sewer during the backwash and cleaning process. This makes the filtration process much more efficient, resulting in crystal-clear pool water without the addition of chemicals (flocculant), and this fully automatically (adjustable according to filter size and maximum pump flow rate). In addition, the process also has a positive effect on the elimination of phosphates, oils and fats, etc.

Principle

e-Flock autonomously produces flocculant by means of electrocoagulation. In this process, aluminum ions are produced in situ and subsequently form aluminum hydroxide flocs. Al(OH)₃ is a gel-like floc with a large surface area that precipitates phosphate, captures suspended solids, adsorbs organic material, and binds heavy metals. The contaminants are removed and discharged via the filter.

Efficiency

e-Flock continuously and evenly doses the required amount of flocculant and thus eliminates unwanted dissolved substances in the pool water.

Turbidity                   90–99%

Suspended solids         90–99%

Phosphate                            90–99%        

Oils and fats               70–95%

Heavy metals               80–99%

Installing the e-Flock Production Cell 

Positioning e-Flock – vertical or horizontal

Glue the production cell into a PVC T-piece (63 mm)

Position between pump and filter (always before the filter!)

For vertical installation

• T-piece 45°
• Water flow from bottom to top

For horizontal installation

• T-piece 90°

Can also be installed in a bypass

Connecting the e-Flock control box

Mount the control box on a DIN rail (electrical panel/cabinet)

230 VAC

• Mains power connection

Flow switch / bridge

• Connection for “open/closed contact” flow monitoring

• Bridge (standard)

Production cell

• Connection cable (7 meters) supplied

e-Flock control

Use the up/down buttons to set the desired dosage on the display.

Follow the diagram to determine the correct dosage depending on pump flow rate and filter diameter.
