The Oasis I-Tronic blanketweed remover is a revolutionary system that eliminates fibrous and slime algae from your garden pond in a way that is safe for fish and plants.

The core of the I-Tronic blankweed remover consists of an anode, made from a mineral copper alloy, and a stainless steel cathode. By means of the microprocessor controlled display unit, pulses are generated, which are led to the core of the I-Tronic. Through these pulses, positively charged copper ions are released, also known as mineralization. These ions are also referred to as minerals.

In a defined concentration, the ions form a natural barrier against algae. The concentration of copper ions to remove fibrous algae and stop the growth lies between 0.2 and 0.3 PPM.

This is an absolutely safe concentration for people, animals, and plants. For comparison, according to the European drinking water standards, 2 PPM is the maximum allowed for drinking water.

A positive side-effect of using the I-Tronic is that the pond water will be healthy, and it spreads a neutral, fresh scent.

The Oasis I-Tronic Pond Blanket Weed Remover is an in-line unit designed to fit into the pond hose between the pump and the filter (if using a gravity return type of pond filter) or between the filter and the pond (if using a pressure filter)

It requires connection to a 230-240v Ac supply and should be protected by a suitable Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker

Whilst the in-line unit is weather proof, the display module should be protected from the weather

The copper anode is consumable and should be replaced when necessary or at least once per year at the start of the pond season

IT-5 & IT-15 : hose sizes up to 32mm

IT-35 & IT-75 : hose sizes from 25mm to 40mm

The manufacturer has been engaged for a number of years in the study of all aspects of single cell and filamentous algae (Blanketweed), examining its structure, its growing environment and its potential eradication - especially in relation to garden fish ponds.

Through their involvement in other avenues of water purification and clarification, their technical department has developed the Xterminator - a totally new concept to eradicate Blanketweed!

Technically the Xterminator is an electro-mineralisation device which floats on a garden pond and introduces a specified amount of dissolved mineral (a mineral that blanket weed hates!) in to the pond without harming fish or plant life.

The Xterminator is not a gimmick...It's revolutionary! It uses proven NASA water purification technology developed for the production of drinking-quality water in space travel - a product for eradicating water-borne algae.

Whilst the Xterminator is a sophisticated scientific device using Electro-mineralisation technology, it has been designed to be simple to use and operator-friendly. Simply choose the right Xterminator model for your pond size.

The Xterminator is suspended in the pond by a moulded lightweight, non degradable float system which allows the unit to be located in the most appropriate position in the pond as a preventative or curative device...Installed in minutes not hours!

Every pond is different - both in size and volume of water...as well as the quantity of unwanted algae. There are three different models of the Xterminator suitable for ponds. Multiple units can be used for larger volumes of water.

The Xterminator comes complete with full and easy to use instructions, including a concise pond volume and treatment chart which indicates the time period required for any given pond size.

The Xterminator has a unique safety feature that automatically switches the unit on to standby mode after a given period of time to ensure concise and accurate treatment of the blanket weed.

The Xterminator has been developed with safety in mind, the micro processor accurately monitors the electro- mineralisation process at all times ensuring that it is completely safe to use with all fish and plant life.

Electronic Blanket Weed Controller

Blanket weed is a fast growing filamentous algae. It forms a strong mat-like growth that is not only unsightly but can clog and damage pumps and filters.

The Blagdon Electronic Blanket Weed Controller has a unique microprocessor, which emits varying radio frequencies through antennae cables provided. This disrupts the calcium ions in the water and causes the blanket weed's cells to break up

Depending on the environmental conditions in the pond, the full effects on the metabolism of the blanket weed and its reduction may not be seen for up to 90 days

The Electronic Blanket Weed Controller antennae is wound in a coil around the pond hose anywhere inline between the pond pump and pond filter. Once the unit is connected to the mains electrical supply, the antennae will commence to emit a radio signal through the hose into the passing water.
