After installing the Wave Stream system, I never had more trouble with the Wapo! It was worth it!

Wasserfilter
Schlecht; keine Anschlussnippel dabei, bei so viel Geld wäre es zu erwarten. Baugrösse auch ein wenig Gross in der Höhe. Habe es nur unser Natur zu Liebe gekauft.

The product itself is ok, but it is urgently recommended to keep the bilge clean by other means, ie regular de-oiling by hand, use of oil sack bags or similar. The filter is relatively small and when sucking eg 100 l of heavily polluted bilge water, the filter is already irreversibly clogged .... Conclusion: the filter is suitable for pumping a clean bilge legally compliant, ie oil-free even in the harbor, no more and no less ,

Works well as an oil separator, but is sensitive to other (solid) contaminants that move the filter relatively quickly.

The filter itself works fine, but the capacity is quickly exhausted, then the filter blocks (consistent) and must be replaced, so if I really do not want to pump oily water outboard, I have to change the filter several times a year ... that goes into the money , because the replacement cartridge is disproportionately expensive at 52.90. Therefore, the combination with an oil binding pillow in the bilge is essential.

The product itself complies with the requirements of an oil separator, even highly oily bilge water can be pumped into the port easily after passing through the filter - there is definitely no oil film to pin down. However, the capacity of the filter is rather low - of course, depends on the factor flow amount x amount of dirt, but for my 10m ship with all kinds Lenzvorgängen per season, I need at least 1-2 filters per season - thus a necessary, but not very cheap "fun ". When the capacity limit is reached, the filter is "tight" and can no longer be directed (oil-free).

Either my device is defective or it is not good at all. After a week, the filter was soaked and read no more water. Removed filter insert, dried it then went back until he was fully sucked. For Holzbotte where the bilge pump is more often, no recommendable article.
