Description
This Model has a Wiper Option to clean the Quartz Sleeve
UV lamps emit a wavelength that will alter and disrupt the DNA or RNA of single-celled organisms. Combining the UV lamp into a large housing allows for maximum contact time with the lamp allowing the sterilizer to be much more efficient. By changing the flow rates through the body of the UV sterilizer lets you target the specific issue you may be having. Most reefers will report that their tanks water clears up overnight with others taking just a couple days, and as long as the UV is running, the water will stay crystal clear! Every AquaUV Sterilizer includes quick-connect unions on the input and output allowing you to quickly remove the entire system from your aquariums plumbing for maintenance, allowing you to mount the UV Sterilizer without having to worry about having room for quartz sleeve and bulb changes.
- Clear Blue Quartz Cap - Lets you see when the lamp is on
- EZ-Twist Cap - Quick and easy quartz sleeve maintenance
- Quick Release Unions - Remove the entire body without any dismantling your plumbing
Great for tanks up to reef tanks up to 355-gallons
Suggested flow rate for saltwater aquarium sterilization - 1066 GPH
Built specifically with user experience, maintenance, and installation in mind, the Classic series is compact and lightweight. But don’t let the size and weight fool you –these units are still extremely effective in cleaning and decontaminating water using the latest and greatest UV sterilization technology. Also called UV light water treatment, UV sterilization is a physical process that eliminates germs and bacteria from water using specially concentrated rays rather than chemicals. The result is completely clean water that remains unchanged in its chemistry, taste, smell, and pH. The Classic series has been designed to maximize the effectiveness of this process so you can have peace of mind that the water in your aquarium, pond, and any other water feature is clean.

Information for Reef Tanks
A UV rated in the 30,000 or 45,000 µw/cm2 (EOL) is ideal for the reef environment. UV’s used at higher kill rates will destroy the planktonic food supply for the reef.
Information for Marine Fish
(No reef or live rock) A UV rated in the 75,000 or 90,000 µw/cm2 (EOL) will be the most effective at controlling fish disease. All UV dosages are calculated at the end of lamp life (14 months).
*Aqua Ultraviolet does not recommend utilizing Wipers with Salt Water and if utilized in this manner will void warranty on the Wiper parts.
