Sunsun Super 402B UV Canister filter 1000LPH

The particular strength of the aquarium external filter is that there is little space wasted inside the aquarium. An aquarium external filter can be easily placed under or next to the pool. For an optimal positioning the hose connections on top of the lid are rotatable at 360°. The large container volume ensures a cleaning with very large filter volume. There is enough space for various filter media.

The SunSun Aquarium External Filter HW-402 B with UVC-unit can be easily connected to aquariums with a water volume of up to 400 liters. So the operation of large-sized aquariums becomes an simple excercise. The pump capacity is 1000 liters per hour. The aquarium external filter provides for a high flow rate, however it operates quietly. The rubber stands provide for a optimal vibration reduction.

The super quiet aquarium filter technique of the SunSun HW-402B aquarium external filter is suitable not only for freshwater aquariums but also saltwater aquariums.

The aquarium filter is delivered with filter media for the three filter stages. The filter baskets with their practicle handles can be filled individually with the filter media. In this respect, please note that the filter media is graded from coarse to fine. The overhead 1st filter stage, the so-called pre-filter retains coarse dirt efficiently and extends considerably the service life of the biological acting filter material that is located on the underlying filter levels.When purchasing a new aquarium filter or after a complete cleaning, the beneficial bacteria must be enriched again. 
There are special bacteria cultures that can be added to the aquarium filter, thus facilitating the start.

The highlight of HW-402B is the integraged UVC-unit.
The water flow within the aquarium filter makes that in the water first passes the UVC-clarifier unit. Due to the UVC-radiation of the UV-lamp, all harmful algae, bacteria and germs are destroyed and the algae formation remains under control.

Normally, the UVC-clarifier provides for clear aquarium water within a short period of time. You achieve the best results with this combination of an UVC-clarifier an a biological aquarium filter.
UVC-pond clarifiers irradiate the water in a flow-through reactor with UV rays.The UV-C radiation destroys the swimmig algae. The algae agglutinate to large particles and ca be easily removed by means of mechanical filtering.
Our UVC clarifiers modify the tertiary and the quaternary structure of the algae proteins by means of UV-radiation. This means the destructions of the algae which can be removed from the water by aquarium filters.

The life span of the UVC-light source varies between 7.000 and 10.000 operating hours. We recommend to change the light source and to clean the quartz glass of the UV-lamp each year.

The flowing water is purged of harmful bacteria and germs. The reduction of germs has no negative effect on the aquarium's microclimate because bacteria settle themselves on stones, the filtration surface and in the whole aquarium system for reducing pollutants and they can reproduce themselves. The UV-lamp can maintain the total microbial content of the aquarium water in near -natural proportions.

Operation:
After the insertion of the filter media, the aquarium external filter is filled with water. SunSun offers an excellent comfort, the ergonomic pump cylinder on the top of the external filter. For the filling of the filter container - and without irritating suction intake - you simply press the pump cylinder for several times. So the aquarium filter fills up with water caused by every pumping motion 

Cleaning:
The multi-function valve on the pump head has a quickly disconnecting coupling which separates the hoses from the filter container without emptying it before. The safety hose adapters on the valve, that are easy to lock, provide a high level of seccurity against leakage. The flow rate is regulated by the multi-function valve.
