AquaStep Ultraviolet Sterilizer

For use in the following applications: Installed in a hanging position or underneath aquarium tanks to kill disease causing micro-organisms. Also use inside pond filters or skimmers to kill free floating algae.

Features:
  • Internal Step Design. Directs water back and forth across UV light tripling the contact time through the unit.
  • Ease of Replacement. Unique 4 pin connector for easy bulb replacement without shutting down the system.
  • Clear View Port. Allows visible light (no UV) to pass through and indicated bulb is operating.
  • Adjustable Clamp. Spring loaded clamp creates a snug fit to any aquarium or reservoir tank.
  • UV Bulb. Highest quality, pure hard quartz material allows maximum UV transmission and longer bulb life.
  • Compression Coupling and Gasket. Creates water tight seal at quartz sleeve and around ballast cord.
  • Electronic Ballast. 10W, 15W and 25W high output UL listed ballast.
  • Versatile. Inlet and outlet at top for hang on and at bottom for below aquarium installations. Use inlet ports on each side to connect multiple units together for any size requirement.
  • Distribution Plate. Evenly distributes water into chamber.
  • Plugs. Plug off inlet ports not in use. Can be removed to drain or clean unit.
  • Free Standing Base. Holds AquaStep in place for installations below or beside aquarium.
  • Design. Innovative design creates more volume area for increased contact time. Flat side allows snug fit to any aquarium or reservoir tank.
  • High Capacity. More capacity than any other make of equal height due to shape of chamber and step design.

JUST BUY A GOOD, QUIET POWERHEAD AND SOME 1/2 INCH TUBING AND YOUR IN BUSINESS. TANK NOT ONLY BECAME CRYSTAL CLEAR, BUT FISH SEEM MORE ACTIVE AND HEALTHY. A LITTLE BLUE LIGHT COMES ON SO YOU KNOW IT'S WORKING.I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT TO ANYONE.

Excellent!
A perfect addition by JASON LA BOU
Experience Level: Expert

Comments: I added this UV to my FB-300 fluidized bed by the same company. The install was easy. I know this might sound strange. My mortality rate in my tank dropped to zero. Fish die of old age now. I assume it is killing all the free floating bacteria and viruses that are present in live water I highly recommend this unit as it has had the most significant impact out of any single filter that I have used.
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
