Examples of different
water treatment
& storage tank systems

To get an idea about the water treatment
& storage tank systems we can provide,
take a look at the examples below:

Example A)
Large-scale water treatment system for "fresh water":
This system includes a large-scale storage tank system (total
water volume is approx. 1,000 liters - made out of two tanks
with approx. 500 liters each) with additional installed devices
to produce "fresh water". The produced water can be used
for "fresh water aquarium systems" (for keeping and breeding
animals like Zebrafish (Danio rerio), Medaka (Oryzias latipes),
Xenopus spp. (Xenopus leavis, Xenopus tropicalis),... etc. ...)

The two included storage tanks are operated alternately: one of the storage tanks feeds the readily prepared fresh water into the aquarium system, while the other storage tank is used to prepare newly filled-in water into fresh water for the use in the aquarium systems and vice versa.
This makes sure, that there is always enough treated fresh water on hold for the connected aquarium system.

The above shown water treatment system has another advantage: there is a water blending system installed.
By the aid of this water blending system it is possible to mix pre-treated stored water from out of the storage tank, which is currently active, with a pre-chosen amount of additional tap water, before it is feed into the aquarium system.
The grade of mixing can be controlled by the adjustmend of dosing taps for both water types.
And to monitor, if the water parameters of the mixed water are correct, measuring probes for pH and conductivity are installed inside of the piping, which feeds the water into the aquarium system.
The connected pH and conductivity measuring units are showing the water parameters constantly at their displays.

This makes sure, that the water parameters are exactly how they should be and you want them.

The treated water from out of the storage tank system is transported into the connected aquarium system by using booster pumps.

Example B)
Large-scale water treatment system for "brackish water":
This system includes a large-scale storage tank system (total water volume is approx. 2,000 liters - made out of two tanks with approx. 1,000 liters each) to produce "brackish water" (salt and fresh water mixture, with a higher salt content to imitate brackish water). This water can be used for "brackish water aquarium systems" (for keeping and breeding brackish water animals like Cnidaria (e.g. sea anemones, jellyfish, brackish water hydras, ...).

Additional to the most usual configuration of a water treatment system, this system is equipped with a bio filtering unit and protein skimmers. Amongst some other things, this additional equipping makes sure as well that the water has "brackish features".

Further, the two storage tanks of this system are operated alternately (as described above in Example A) as well): one of the storage tanks feeds the readily prepared brackish water into the aquarium system, while the other storage tank is used to prepare newly filled-in water into brackish water and vice versa. This makes sure, that there is always enough brackish water on hold for the connected aquarium system.

The treated water from out of the storage tank system is transported into the connected aquarium system by using booster pumps.

Example C)
Small-scale water treatment system for "fresh water":
This system includes a small-scale storage tank system (one storage tank with a total water volume of approx. 200 liters) to store "fresh water". This water can be used for "fresh water aquarium systems" (for keeping and breeding animals like Zebrafish (Danio rerio), Medaka (Oryzias latipes), Xenopus spp. (Xenopus leavis, Xenopus tropicalis), etc. ...)

This system has pH and conductivity measuring units. The measuring probes are installed inside of the piping, which feeds the water into the aquarium system.
Further, it has a water level indicator and an electrical "minimum water level control" by an installed switch-over contact (used as dry running protection for the integrated mixing and feeding pump).

The treated water from out of the storage tank system is transported into the connected aquarium system by using the integrated mixing/booster pump.

Example D)
Small-scale water treatment system for "fresh water":
This small-scale storage tank system (one storage tank with a total water volume of approx. 170 liters) for "fresh water" is installed underneath a working bench with a sink.
This water can be used for "fresh water aquarium systems" (for keeping and breeding animals like Zebrafish (Danio rerio), Medaka (Oryzias latipes), Xenopus spp. (Xenopus leavis, Xenopus tropicalis), etc. ...)

This system has pH and conductivity measuring units, which are installed on a blue plate at the wall above (see small picture...).
The pH and conductivity measuring probes are installed inside of the storage tank to measure the water parameters of the stored water, which are shown constantly at the displays of the measuring units.

Further, it has water level indicators with two switch-over contacts.
The lower switch-over contact is a "tank empty" indicator and further a dry-run protection for the integrated mixing/feeding pump as well.
As soon as the storage tank is empty and reaches the lower change-over contact, the mixing/feeding pump is automatically switched off and a red signal lamp starts to flash (red lamp at the top of small picture...).

The treated water from out of the storage tank system is transported into the connected aquarium system by using the integrated mixing/booster pump.


These storage tank systems are only examples to show which kind of systems we have already build.
But there are theoretically nearly all thinkable combinations between all shown systems possible.
