Matala 16 Watt UV-C Clarifier with Philips T5 Lamp (MPN EUV-16W)

Matala UV-C Clarifiers are specifically designed for Koi ponds and water gardens with the purpose of controlling and minimizing the growth of green algae, harmful bacteria, parasites, fungi, protozoan, and viruses. Even in a well-balanced pond ecosystem, the sudden proliferation of these microorganisms can occur due to various factors such as changes in weather conditions, fish feeding patterns, or mineral nutrient levels. The presence of these blooms can lead to issues like green water, oxygen depletion, or a decline in the health of fish and aquatic plants. These clarifiers are equipped with high-quality Phillips lamps, which are recognized as the top ultraviolet lamps in the world. They have a long lifespan and deliver optimal UV output. It is important to replace the UV lamps annually, preferably in the early spring, to ensure the strongest output during the peak season of pond sunshine. The Matala UV-C Clarifiers come with convenient features that facilitate installation and usage. They are equipped with 360-degree multi-direction adjustment hosetails, allowing flexible positioning. Additionally, no tools are required for installation. The hose barbs of these clarifiers accept tubing with inner diameters of 3/4, 1, 1-1/4, and 1-1/2 inches. Furthermore, the translucent hose tails enable monitoring of the blue UV light. Lastly, the clarifiers are accompanied by a 15-foot power cord that includes an in-line transformer for easy electrical connection.
