Type SS8

Type SS8
The Type SS8 Star System, manufactured by KSH Germany, consists of eight filter arms (Type A4 or A5) mounted using a quick-release fastener for simple, secure installation. The central tube of the container can be glued directly into the centerpiece, while the length of the filter arms determines the overall system diameter. This design ensures flexibility and ease of maintenance. Absorb NZ is the exclusive distributor of KSH filtration and drainage systems in New Zealand.
