Sieve / Cover for SLO Overflow (Aquaponics & Aquarium)

Protective sieve designed for the SLO overflow (Solids Lifting Overflow) in aquaponic and aquarium systems. It prevents fish, larger debris, or growing media from entering the overflow pipe.

The sieve was modeled according to precise specifications and drawings to ensure optimal water flow and easy maintenance.

Technical Parameters and Dimensions:

Overall Height: 50 mmBottom Diameter (Base): 50 mm
Inner Diameter / Connection: 20 mm (intended to fit standard 20 mm tubing)
Design: Conical shape with longitudinal grooves around the circumference and on the underside to maximize suction area while minimizing clogging.
 

Recommended Print Settings:

Material: PETG or ASA (suitable for continuous submersion in water, UV-stabilized, and safe for fish)Layer Height: 0.2 mm
Infill: 35%
Supports: None (designed for printing without supports)
Brim: Optional (recommended if bed adhesion is poor)
