For all your answers visit www.thepondforum.com Showing how flow rates affect the performance of the unit. Manufacturer states 4400-4800gph for designed flow rate. I am moving 5500-6500gph.
Hey, i have just installed Cetus Sieve and i don't get any of the water you have along back edge. Surely because your pump is too high for it, this is whats causing the water to bubble up and over???
Hi Tim. Is your set up a pump fed system. I bought a used gravity Cetus with 4" inlet and 2" out let. However, it would requires a major renovation for me to at a 4" pipe for the inlet. Now I think I need to go to the pump fed round. Could you let me know the gallons per hour of pumps you used. Thank you.
The cetus was not installed correctly. I need to be raised so the top edge of the cetus needs to be 60 mm above t5he water level. . Check page 4 of your Cetus Manual dummy.
As long as you pump water into it, you can pump as much as you want, if the "outlet pipes" lets the amount of water escape. Yet, try to make it a gravity feed Sieve, where your pump suck water from the outlet, then you might experience that it will only run at 18.000L / 4000 gallons pr hour, if its installed correctly compared to pond surface level, and you have the optimal pipes for it. I have a Kinshi Sieve V ( way larger than this Cestus Sieve ) - it can run 40.000L / 10.550 gallons if placed perfectly. I have tested the pump at 650Watts ( blue eco 900 ), and the sieve does not struggle to keep up, Iam lifting 1m70cm so if I follow the flowrate specification on the pump at 2 meters, I should move about 40.000 liters.. ( Sieves maximum ) - but why does the Sieve not struggle, .. because the waterlevel in the pond is very high, compared to the installation guide. I have placed the Sieve so the egde of the sieve is at waterlevel ( so it wont overflow if the pump shut down ) - that is 1-2 inch lower than the guide informs, but it gives a stronger flow into the sieve. btw. I do believe gravity feed Sieves are the best way to use them, rather than "pump feed" - because, placing the pump after the sieve you can use the pump to feed pressurefilters / bakki showers / other filter systems. pressurefilters dont need to be placed high bakki showers placed high to let gravity sent water back to the pond and so on.. you get the point ! pump feed, you can do nothin more than feed the Sieve, unless you want to place the Sieve 2-3 meters up, so the water can flow into bakkis and others
the sieve is too low,the wier should b level with the top of sieve,and then the water level will sit about an inch inside that.the sieve is only rated at 17000 litres an hour,hope that helps,love endures all things 1 Cor,13:7
Actually, you are incorrect. I am running the sieve at at least 7000gph, the specified rate is 4700-4800gph, so I am overdriving the unit by a large amount. To compensate for the higher volume, I have had to deviate from the specified height parameters. So, in reality you are a dumbass. Pay attention dumass, as you might learn something. Or maybe your the idiot that can't figure out water dynamics. Either way, STFU, cause you don't know what you're talking about.

Too much flow. Height of the install is wrong.
The irony of calling someone "dummy", while making basic grammatical errors... :D
Was it worth the money?
Pipe works and levels are all wrong, plus a Cetus can only handle 18000L.
Wow! Why all the name calling?

pressurefilters dont need to be placed high
bakki showers placed high to let gravity sent water back to the pond
and so on.. you get the point !
pump feed, you can do nothin more than feed the Sieve, unless you want to place the Sieve 2-3 meters up, so the water can flow into bakkis and others
This is gravity from what I can gather...

That's how he's achieving these flow rate's.. Which suit's the shower.....
There’s far to much though the unit you have your pipe work incorrect
Actually, you are incorrect. I am running the sieve at at least 7000gph, the specified rate is 4700-4800gph, so I am overdriving the unit by a large amount.
