Sea Side Aquatics CL65 Wifi Pond Filter Combi RDF 17,000 GPH Self-Cleaning 40,000 Gallon

Sea Side Aquatics CL65 Wifi Combi RDF Filter for Effortless, Automated Pond Clarity

Tired of scrubbing filter pads and battling murky water every weekend? Your pond deserves better. This all-in-one unit tackles both mechanical and biological filtration in a single automated system, separating debris down to 75 microns and flushing it away on its own. Clean water, clear views, and far less hands-on maintenance for you.

• All-in-one filtration: combines mechanical and biological filtration in one automated system, so debris removal and beneficial bacteria growth happen together.
• Self-cleaning drum: a 75 micron stainless steel 316 screen traps debris and rinses itself automatically, cutting down on manual cleaning.
• Biological boost: a 350L fluidized K1 media bed, kept moving by an included air pump, oxygenates water and supports healthy bacteria colonies.
• Adjustable control box: mounted on the front housing for manual turn/flush operation plus adjustable rinse level and rinse time.
• Flexible plumbing: works as gravity, airlift, or pump fed, with 3 x 110 mm inputs, 3 x 110 mm outputs, and 2 extra outputs available for pump-fed setups.
• Large capacity: handles a max flow of 17,000 GPH and ponds up to 40,000 gallons, suited to koi ponds and heavily stocked water gardens.
• Low profile: only 14 cm installation height for easier placement into existing setups.
• Built to last: PP 15 mm housing, PP 20 mm drum, stainless steel 316/304 hardware, and a silicone seal resist corrosion and wear.
• What's included: bag of K1 media, air pump, external cleaning pump (required for operation), and a removable waste water container.

Automatic Self-Cleaning Rotating Drum

Dirty water enters the filter and passes through the rotating drum, where a 75 micron stainless steel 316 screen panel traps debris before it ever reaches your pond. When the screen fills, the automatic rinse function kicks in and washes everything away, so you are not stuck cleaning by hand.

• Drum size: 60 x 50 cm diameter, built from PP 20 mm
• Spray bar: high pressure PVC rated to 40 bar with a removable mounting for easy servicing, featuring five red and black high-pressure PVC nozzle fittings mounted along a stainless steel bar above the perforated drum screen panel, fed by a vertical stainless spray pipe
• Waste handling: a 110 mm waste water drain plus a removable waste water container collects the flushed debris, with the waste water outlets located at the front base of the unit
• Trapped particles are rinsed off automatically, keeping the screen working at full capacity

Biological Filtration with Fluidized Media Bed

Once the water is mechanically cleaned, it flows into a fluidized bed of media powered by air. This constant movement oxygenates the water and drives the biological breakdown of waste, helping keep your fish healthy and your water balanced.

• 350L media capacity, with a bag of K1 media included
• 35 cm air disc with a 20/25 mm connection keeps the media in motion
• An air pump is included to power the fluidized bed
• Oxygen-rich water supports strong colonies of beneficial bacteria

Control Box and Adjustable Rinse Settings

The control box mounts directly on the front housing of the filter, putting operation right where you need it. Fine-tune how and when the unit cleans itself so it matches your pond's demands.

• Turn and flush manual operation for on-demand cleaning whenever you want it
• Rinse level adjustable to control how full the screen gets before flushing
• Turn and rinse time adjustable to dial in the cleaning cycle
• Labeled sockets power the drum motor, cleaning pump, and circulation pump from one place
• A red on/off rotary switch and a sensor connector are built into the control box

• Low 14 cm installation height for straightforward positioning
