Type SK8
The Type SK8 Filter System, manufactured by KSH Germany, consists of eight Type A filter arms mounted at a 15° angle. This angled configuration allows the system to sit tightly against the clapper base, ensuring maximum utilization of the filter medium. Louvre nozzles on the top provide residual ventilation and prevent dead space above the centerpiece. The overall system diameter is determined by the length of the filter arms. Absorb NZ is the exclusive distributor of KSH filtration and drainage systems in New Zealand.
