in Germany - 1-year manufacturer's warranty (excluding UVC bulb)
Innovative ultraviolet clarifier range from OASE. Installed before the pond filter, these units aid in the filtration process by flocculating (clumping together) free-floating single-cell algae which can then be removed by the pond filter (pond filter sold separately). All units, except the Bitron 9 Watt model, come with a mechanical cleaning device which helps prevent dirt accumulation on the quartz sleeve and thus keep the UVC working at optimum capacity. 18 to 72 Watt models are also equipped with a permanent magnet which helps control limescale buildup on pump and filtration components. All Bitron UVC models use Philips UV lamps to insure maximum UV effectiveness and lamp longevity. This product will not eliminate blanketweed/string algae. Not for use in swimming pools or salt water. To ensure perfect operation of the UV clarifier, UV lamps should be replaced after each season.
