Compact UV-C Lamp 217 mm 18 W 2G11 Aquarium Systems for UV-C Sterilizer

General Description

The Compact UV-C Lamp Aquarium Systems 18 W is designed for aquarium water treatment through UV-C sterilization. Its 2G11 base ensures compatibility with many UV-C sterilizers designed for medium to large volumes.

With a length of 217 mm, this compact bulb easily fits into suitable UV-C chambers. It helps limit the proliferation of suspended algae responsible for green water and reduces the load of microorganisms circulating in the water.

Durability and Performance

Designed to offer stable performance, this UV-C lamp maintains its optimal germicidal efficiency during a recommended usage period of 12 months. Beyond this period, the intensity of the UV-C radiation gradually decreases, reducing the effectiveness of sterilization.

Germicidal Efficiency

UV-C radiation acts on microscopic algae, bacteria, and other undesirable microorganisms present in the water. This action helps maintain clearer water and a more stable environment for fish and other aquarium organisms.

Safety and Usage Precautions

The UV-C bulb must always be installed in a closed and secure device. Any direct exposure to UV-C radiation is dangerous. Replacement or maintenance operations should be performed with the power off.

Benefits for the Aquarium

The use of this UV-C lamp helps limit chemical treatments while contributing to visually clearer and biologically more balanced water. It effectively integrates into filtration systems designed for both marine and freshwater aquariums.

Technical Specifications

Never look at an operating UV-C lamp. Always follow safety instructions and use only in a compliant and fully enclosed device.
