Oase BioTec ScreenMatic² Rotary Pond Filter

The system uses an intelligent sensor to monitor the debris level on the 300-micron mesh screen. When the screen becomes saturated, it automatically rotates to deposit the trapped waste into the sludge basket, ensuring consistent water flow without manual intervention.

No, the BioTec ScreenMatic² is a gravity-fed, flow-through filter designed to be installed above the water level of your pond. It must be placed on a stable, level surface outside of the pond itself.

While the automatic cleaning system handles the bulk of the debris, you will need to periodically empty the sludge basket. The redesigned basket is built for easy removal, making the process straightforward and clean.

Yes, the unit includes a manual belt run capability. This allows you to activate the cleaning cycle at any time, regardless of the sensor's automatic schedule.

The filter is designed to handle a flow rate of 1,585 GPH. You should pair it with a pump that matches this flow rate to ensure the system operates at peak efficiency and maintains the water quality required for the Clear Water Guarantee.

By separating coarse debris before it reaches the biological filter pads, the screen significantly reduces the amount of organic waste that breaks down inside the unit. This prevents clogging and extends the time between deep cleanings of the filter media.
