A twin 20\" x 4.5\" high flow filter system and a high output ultraviolet chamber, both pre-installed inside a 304 brushed stainless steel enclosure with an acrylic viewing panel — so the lamp, the ballast and the gauges are out of the weather and out of reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you have ever seen a UV ballast that has spent two summers zip-tied to a fence post, you already know why this exists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eChoose your configuration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe housings are shipped to you empty so you can pick the cartridges that suit your water, rather than paying for a set that may be wrong for your tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplete — rain \u0026amp; tank water ($2,962.50)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSystem plus a 5 micron washable pleated sediment cartridge and a 5 micron silver impregnated carbon block. The pleated cartridge takes out the grit and can be rinsed and reused. The silver impregnated carbon is bacteriostatic, so bacteria do not colonise the carbon between services. Five micron is deliberate here — the UV needs clear water to work, so the pre-filtration is finer than you would use on a plain filter system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem only ($2,750)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe enclosure, twin housings, UV chamber, lamp, thimble, ballast, gauges and frame, without cartridges.

Ultraviolet does, by disrupting the organism so it cannot reproduce. Nothing is added to your water, and nothing changes the taste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe order matters. Sediment and carbon go first so the water reaching the lamp is clear, because UV cannot work through cloudy water. That is why this unit is built in that sequence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40 mJ\/cm squared at 75 L\/min\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30 mJ\/cm squared at 105 L\/min\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is in the enclosure\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e304 brushed stainless steel enclosure with acrylic viewing panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwin high flow filter housings, 20\" x 4.5\", pre-installed on the frame\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo pressure gauges, readable through the panel without opening it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectropolished 304 stainless steel ultraviolet chamber, pre-installed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH7-90-Lamp, 48W high output UV lamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH7-90-Thimble quartz thimble and O-ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH7-90-PS certified ballast, 42 to 105W, Australian plug with earthing cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHousing opening spanner, instruction and warranty sheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNot included: tank, pump, surge protector and bypass valves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 870mm high, 610mm wide, 220mm deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInlet: 1\" BSP female.
