Key Features
Introduction
The N-Clear Nano Fleece Roller Filter is designed for aquarium enthusiasts who need an
efficient, low-maintenance solution to remove particulate matter and maintain pristine water
conditions. Ideal for both freshwater and marine aquariums, this filter effectively eliminates
suspended solids and organic waste, preventing water quality degradation.
Advanced Fleece Filtration ---- Uses high-density filter fleece to effectively capture particles,
ensuring crystal-clear aquarium water.
Automatic Fleece Replacement ---- When the fleece becomes clogged with debris, the
built-in sensor triggers the motor to roll up the used fleece and replace it with a new section,
ensuring continuous filtration without manual intervention.
Dual Mode ---- Allows two filters to operate in sync using a single controller. When the
sensor on the primary filter is triggered, the motors of both filters activate simultaneously
to roll the fleece.
Quiet Operation ---- Operates with minimal noise, ensuring a peaceful environment.
02
How It Works
Once the sensor is triggered, the motor activates to roll up the dirty filter cloth, lowering the
water level.
When the filter cloth accumulates too much debris, the water flow gradually slows, causing
the water level to rise and triggering the sensor.
As water passes through the filter cloth, debris is filtered out, and clean water flows through
the filter.
Water flows into the filter’s inlet.
Install the filter at the outlet of the all-in-one tank.

N-Clear supports Dual Mode, allowing two
filters to share the same controller and work
together for tanks with dual filter chambers.
Use the included splitter cable to connect
the motor of the secondary filter to the motor
connector on the primary filter's controller.
Note : The secondary filter does not require
a separate sensor.

The controller provides an intuitive interface and real-time feedback on the filter's operational
status.
POWER (Green)
ON: DC power supply is active and functioning normally.
OFF: No power detected. Check the power connection.
LED Indicators
MODE (Green)
Blinking: High-efficiency mode. The motor operates briefly
after the sensor detects a water level change.
OFF: Normal mode. The motor operates continuously when
the sensor detects water and stops once the level stabilizes.
Controller Operation Guide
ALARM (Red)
ON: System is paused indefinitely.
Blinking: System is paused temporarily and will resume automatically after 30 minutes.
OFF: System is running normally.
Buttons
MODE
Switch between high-efficiency and normal modes.
MANUAL
Press and hold to manually activate the take-up motor.
PAUSE
Press once: Pause for 30 minutes and resume automatically.
Press twice: Pause indefinitely.
Press three times: Resume normal operation.

Controller Operation Guide
Sound Alarms
Motor or Circuit Fault
If a short circuit or other electrical issue occurs, both the mode and alarm indicators will alternate
blinking, accompanied by rapid beeping.
Solution: Disconnect the power supply and contact support to replace or repair the motor.
No Controller Lights
If the controller does not light up when powered, contact support to replace the power adapter
or controller.
Fleece Blockage or Depletion
When the alarm indicator blinks and the buzzer emits an intermittent pattern, check for debris
blocking the fleece or verify if the fleece roll is depleted.
Solution: Replace the fleece and press the pause button three times to reset the alarm.

Adjusting Water Level and Sensor Height
The stable operation of the filter depends on several factors. When using it for the first time,
please carefully follow these guidelines and patiently adjust:
Water Barrier
Select the proper water barrier and install it to the inner frame. The top edge of the water
barrier should be level with the lower edge of the chamber outlet, ensuring there are no
gaps. This allows water to flow completely into the roll filter without leaks.
Optimal water barrier height for tanks with a flow deflector.
16
Suboptimal
Best
Adjusting Water Level and Sensor Height
Optimal water barrier height for tanks with a flat chamber inlet.
Sensor Height
The recommended sensor height is 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch above the water level inside the
filter. If the sensor is too low, the fleece will wear out too quickly, leading to waste. If the
sensor is too high, the fleece will never roll, affecting normal operation. You can determine
the correct sensor height by observing how dirty the used fleece appears when rolled up.
17
Suboptimal
Best
Aquarium Water Level
The water level in the aquarium may fluctuate due to evaporation. It is recommended (but
not required) to use an ATO (Auto Top Off) system to help maintain a stable water level.
Pump Flow Rate
The flow rate of the aquarium’s water pump determines the highest water level that can be
reached inside the roll filter. The recommended flow rate for this filter is 100 GPH to 300
GPH.

Troubleshooting Instructions
If the Fleece Roll Is Used Up Too Quickly
If the used fleece appears whitish rather than a deep yellow or brown, the sensor is likely
positioned too low. Try raising the sensor or adjusting the filter height using the outer case
clip.
If the Fleece Never Rolls
Ensure the pump flow rate is within the recommended range.
Confirm that your aquarium is compatible with this filter and that there are no gaps between
the filter’s inlet and the aquarium’s outlet.
Try lowering the sensor height slightly.
Check if the aquarium water level is too low and needs replenishment.
Clean the sensor.
If the Filter Triggers Alarms Frequently
Try raising the sensor height slightly.
Reduce the flow rate of your pump.
Check if excessive water replenishment has raised the aquarium’s water level too high.
