K1-160 Protein Skimmer

Modern Design and Functionality

The IceCap K1 160 is a remarkably compact skimmer that offers a new level of refined filtration for marine aquariums.  All aspects of the skimmer were implemented to surpass many challenges other skimmers on the market miss out on. The IceCap K1 160 is crafted from robust PVC and high quality acrylic. Each component is marine safe, refined in every aspect to provide the latest enhancements in foam fractionation and the highest in quality.

Features:

• Distinctive Turbulence Reducing Body
• Solid PVC & Acrylic Construction
• Bubble Dispersant Chamber
• Novel Pipeless Output Valve
• Efficient & Quiet Operation
• Disassembles Completely for Easy Cleaning & Maintenance
• In-Sump Installation Only

At the Core of the IceCap K1 160, you will find the EVair 600 skimmer pump, built to be highly durable, packing a ton efficient performance. The elegant “Beer Bottle" curve of the skimmer body naturally stabilizes the air and water mix as they transition upward within the reaction chamber. An impressively compact footprint makes it the ideal candidate for tight sump applications. The pipeless output offers fine-tuning and trouble free underwater outflow plus quiet operation. The pipeless design not only saves on space but also allows the outgoing water to exit on the side of the skimmer and below the water surface providing splash-free circulation in the sump. Located much lower in the reaction chamber, the unique bubble dispersing chamber offers a multi stage diffusion of water, additional contact time for enhanced foam stability. Every aspect of the skimmer disassembles completely for easy service.
