    Description

    Ultralife Ultraviolet UV aquarium sterilizer. 16 watt unit 430 GPH
    this is a UV sterilizer that has been discontinued. My son used it on marine tanks but it can be used on fresh water tanks or ponds. The bulb works, its clean and was well maintained. Its been out of use and sitting in his closet for a few years. It was water tight when last used. it seals with a rubber sleeve that feels pliable, we no longer has pumps etc to test it for water tightness,
    here are the stats I found on the web,,this is the 16 watt model so disregard the 40 and 60 watt stats
    "The'Ultra-V' is now available and has well been worth the wait. These units features include: water tight gasketted housing, hard quartz sleeve, inline bulb replacement, high efficiency remote electronic ballast.
    And what we feel is the BEST feature of all: The SIZE-- under 22" long. Great for Ponds, Fresh and Marine applications.
    The "Ultra-V" Ultra Violet Sterilizers are excellent choices for Freshwater, Saltwater and Pond applications. These units are water tight and utilize hard quartz sleeves for peak performance. The design also allows for UV Bulb replacement without the need to remove the unit from it's installed position.
    Allowing for a maximum flow rates up to 1500 GPH, these units are designed to be used with your favorite water pumps.
    Based on a 70,000 sec/cm2 (microwatt seconds per square centimeter) the flowrates are as follows:
    16 Watt UV Unit 430 gph
    40 Watt UV Unit 1000 gph
    60 Watt UV Unit 1500 gph
    By changing the flow rate through the UV unit you will change the effective "kill power" of the UV unit.
    For example: If you only allow 215 gph thru the 16 watt unit, you will effectively increase the kill power to 140,000 sec/cm2 (microwatt seconds per square centimeter). And also the opposite, by increasing the flow rate you will lower the "kill power".
    The "Ultra-V" is made in the USA and has a 1 year warranty on the Unit and Ballast, and 30 days on the UV Bulb and Quartz Sleeve.
