FiltrationHardware Specification
UV Sterilizer
A sealed tube containing a ultraviolet-C emitting bulb. Water is pumped slowly through the tube, exposing suspended pathogens and algae spores to UV light.
Primary Biological & Physical Purpose
Can help reduce free-floating algae and some waterborne microorganisms when the UV dose, flow rate, and exposure time are appropriate. It does not sterilize an aquarium or replace normal disease prevention and treatment.
Operational Mechanics & Physics
UV-C radiation disrupts the DNA of microscopic cells passing through the sterilizer chamber, neutralizing algae and disease-causing pathogens.
Maintenance & Longevity Protocol
Replace the UV lamp according to the manufacturer’s recommended service interval and clean the quartz sleeve as needed to maintain UV transmission.
