Oase Bitron 55C UV Clarifier – 18,000 Gallon Ponds (56936)
The UV-C technology in the Oase Bitron 55C UV Clarifier helps ensure consistently clear and healthy water by flocculating (“clumping”) microscopic green algae that are the main contributors to green and unsightly pond water. Once flocculated, the algae clumps are removed from circulation by the pond filter. This controls the occurrence of algae and reduces the effects of harmful byproducts from algae decomposition.
The Oase Bitron 55C UV Clarifier features an integrated bypass that allows only optimum water flow to pass over the UV light for optimal efficiency. The Oase Bitron 55C UV Clarifier also features a self-cleaning design for the quartz sleeve to keep the UV function at peak efficiency. UV bulb operation can be checked with the built-in function check.
The Oase Bitron 55C UV Clarifier can be used as a stand-alone UVC. It also mounts directly to the Oase BioTec 18000 Pond Filter.
