Innovitech X filter 1.0

The X filter from Innovitech is the UK designed premium digitally controlled automatic roll filter, a highly effective water particulate filtration unit. Primarily for use in marine, tropical & freshwater aquariums to replace the use of filter socks & floss. This can be used in large display and coral propagation systems too.

The X-Filter has the capability to filter down to 9 microns with the advantage that all filtered particles are removed from the water achieving active nutrient control. The filter section is fully sealed, giving YOU the choice of whether to bypass water or not.

A real-world test program has been in effect since early 2017, the X-filter has been installed in various Marine setups and the participants have all reported outstanding positive results. Filter roll is 65 meters (213 ft) long and available in 9, 17, 25 and 32 microns. Filter out organic waste, detritus, food, microalgae, substrate dust and other unwanted waste.

X-Filter Model 1.0 is capable of flow rates up to 7000 litres per hour depending on which grade of media is being used.

Overview

The Innovate X Filter is regarded as the best in its class, from the pre-built ergonomic design, easy installation, and virtually no plumbing adjustments required, to the choice of micron filters to suit your system. With the best footprint to flow ratio the X filter really is the thinking person's choice for filter rollers and sets the standard for water clarity (The X effect)

Innovative Filter Panel Design

The “X” shape allows more surface area in a smaller footprint to support larger flows and tank sizes. In conjunction with 65 metres of media per roll, give customers peace of mind between media changes.

Modular Design, No Further Plumbing Required

The main body can be separated from the top section that holds the media and the electronics, allowing easy installation even underwater, to reach through hard standpipes. Installation is complete within minutes.

Vortex Generating Bypass Controllers

Give the option to fine-tune the device to maximise the use of media and support high flows without compromising water clarity. The vortex generated allows heavier particles to enter the filtering section while allowing clearer water and micro life to exit the device

Industrial Grade Optical Level Sensor

High precision and robust solid-state sensor. Provides consistent readings to maximise efficiency with pinpoint precision.

No more stuck float switches.
