Germicidal UV-C purifiers clarify water in Aquariums and Fish Tanks.

Using a UV-C water purifier in a small or large aquarium or fish tank clarifies the water with germicidal ultraviolet UV-C light which destroys virtually all microorganisms, bacteria, mold, virus, protozoa, water-borne disease-causing pathogens, algae, and parasites. UV-C is a rapid, safe, and chemical-free disinfection method. To effectively disinfect your water, you’ll need a properly sized system for your water volume. Successful disinfection depends on unobstructed ultraviolet wavelengths through the water, and the appropriate dose of UV light needed to inactivate the organisms. Beneficial bacteria are not destroyed unless some of it flows throughout the water and goes through the UV purifier because the beneficial bacteria live on the gravel, rocks, wood, etc.

Bio-Logic® uv water purifiers 1.5 -3.0 gpm

Bio-Logic® Ultraviolet Water Purifiers can be installed in small spaces (typically a Point of Use application) and have dual rotatable heads, making them ideal for installations with unusual hook ups.

MINIPURE® uv water purifiers 1 – 9 GPM

MINIPURE® models have a compact footprint for Point of Use installation such as aquarium or fish tanks. An LED on the ballast — along with an EASY-OFF™ End Cap with clear window plug — provide visual indication of germicidal lamp operation. Models come equipped with an audible alarm integrated into the ballast that alerts you of malfunction. All MINIPURE® UV Water Purifiers come equipped with Stainless Steel Promate™ Wall Mounting Brackets.

Ultimate™ uv water purifiers 4 – 9 GPM

Ultimate™ UV-C Water Purifiers are designed for a vertical mount — perfect for POU (point-of-use). Several models are available to handle most small water requirements, fitting easily in spaces that can’t accommodate a horizontally-mounted purifier.

MIGHTY★PURE® uv water purifiers 3 – 20 GPM

MIGHTY★PURE® can install POU or POE (point-of-entry). These models offer superior quality and numerous standard features, such as a sight port for viewing germicidal ultraviolet lamp operation. Several optional accessories are available, such as a Germicidal UV Monitor for a more in-depth knowledge of the purifier operation.

SANITRON® uv water purifiers 3 – 416 GPM NSF/ANSI 61&372 Certified

While any of our SANITRON® models can be used in multiples to allow for growing or changing applications, our SANITRON® S2400C Opens in New Window (40 gallons per minute) model was initially designed with the modular design platform in mind — allowing for 80 gallons per minute treatment with two purifiers used together, 160 gallons per minute with four purifiers, and so on. Quartz sleeve cleaning is a simple task with the standard patented Dual-Action Wiper Mechanism. Models S37C, S50C, and S2400C are certified to NSF®/ANSI 61 and 372 — Drinking Water System Component — Health Effects and Lead Content.
