BioGuard FLO
Fish farms running at full capacity often face a difficult trade-off: improving water quality typically requires expanding infrastructure, installing additional equipment, and enduring months of operational disruption. Yet, there is a smarter way to boost efficiency – one that enhances performance without the need for rebuilds or interruptions to operations.
BioGuard FLO improves the hydraulic performance of your existing drum filter, giving you room to grow. And by upgrading the media, you can upgrade the results: cleaner water, fewer disruptions, and a more stable biological process – without changing the machine itself.
This innovation is designed to meet the demands of modern aquaculture systems.
BioGuard FLO key advantages:
-
Hydraulic capacity: Move more water through the system without adding new filters, rebuilding infrastructure or increasing your footprint. It’s the simplest path to higher production capacity.
-
Particle retention: The patented weave geometry is designed to hold more particles before backwashing is triggered. This results in longer filtration cycles and more consistent water quality.
-
Filtration area: Built on the PL panel platform, BioGuard FLO provides a greater opening area than previous designs and offers more filtration surface within the same physical footprint.
-
Water & energy: Longer filtration cycles mean fewer backwash events. This directly reduces water consumption and the energy required for backwashing. The result is measurable savings per production cycle – and a more sustainable operation overall.
-
Cleanability: The open structure is easier to clean than conventional cloth designs, reducing the need for manual maintenance and extending the service life of the panel before replacement.
-
Compatibility. Fully compatible with all 1600–2000 series drum filter systems using a 1200x400 mm panel. No rebuilds or downtime required — just a straightforward upgrade for both marine and freshwater environments.
