Product Information

Full details

The Evolution Aqua Nexus Automatic System is an essential upgrade for pond owners using Nexus 220 or 320 pump-fed filtration systems who want to move away from manual maintenance. This system automates the backwashing process by controlling waste valves and air pumps, saving significant time and effort in daily pond care; however, it requires a pump-fed configuration and is not natively compatible with gravity-fed systems without additional modifications.

FAQs

Can this system be used with gravity-fed Nexus filters?

No, this specific kit is designed strictly for pump-fed Nexus 220 and 320 filtration systems.

How often should I clean my filter using this system?

While the factory preset is every three days, the frequency can be adjusted from once an hour to once every 10 days depending on your pond's specific needs.

What happens if I need to clean the filter manually?

You can use the manual clean button located on the main control box to trigger a full cleaning cycle at any time.

Is the system weather-resistant?

The control box should be kept in a dry, protected location, but the valve assemblies are designed for use with the filter housing.

Does this system replace my existing pump?

No, it manages the existing filtration valves and air flow, but it does not replace the main water pump of your pond.

Troubleshooting

System not initiating cleaning cycle

Check the power supply to the control box and verify that the timer settings are correctly programmed.

Waste valve failing to open

Inspect the valve assembly for any physical obstructions or debris that may be preventing mechanical movement.

Air valve not triggering during cycle

Ensure the air valve electrical connection to the control box is fully seated and the cable is undamaged.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
