We are excited to have delivered advanced Life Support Systems (LSS) for the new Amphibian & Reptile Conservation Centre (ARC) at Taronga Zoo Sydney in Mosman, Sydney.
Designed specifically for the delicate needs of amphibians and reptiles, these advanced systems play a crucial role in recreating natural habitats, ensuring the well-being of the animals, and breeding programs.
At Fresh By Design, we equipped the ARC with 17 specialised LSS systems, which include:
- 17 LSS Filter Sumps with MAT Filtration PLC control panels and HMIs, integrating UV sterilisers, temperature sensors, recirculation pumps, heat exchangers, and protein skimmers.
- 8 Pentair SMART UV sterilisers (80W to 240W models).
- 9 Eheim Reeflex UVs (9W to 25W models).
- 30kW of Sondex plate heat exchangers for precise temperature control.
- OCTO Regal 200 saltwater protein skimmers for marine animal care.
- 2 Waterco WD deep bed media filters with activated carbon and an RO system featuring 1μm cartridges, feeding into a custom 4m³ HDPE storage tank for central services.
- Central Services Skid with Grundfos Booster pumps to ensure optimal flow to each of the 42 exhibits.
- Davey Powermaster and Eheim CompactOn pumps for efficient water recirculation between exhibits and LSS sumps.
