Akula UKS-180 marine aquarium protein skimmer from UltraReef is designed to meet the needs of the most demanding reefers with aquaria up to 700 litres total.
Using its experience, Ultra Reef has developed a line of internal skimmers for marine aquaria with innovative design, efficiency and processing techniques.
Common features of UltraReef's UKS series
The conical body is made of cast acrylic, the internal flow is uniform and the buoyancy homogeneous.
The exhaust system is cut into the base to limit the emission of air bubbles from the exhaust.
Anti-vibration feet absorb annoying vibrations, making it even quieter.
The level of the contact chamber is adjusted by means of a screw gate with high precision.
The silencer is equipped with an adjusting screw to set the maximum amount of air intake, a simple, stable and precise adjustment.
The internal pump design is as compact as you could wish for your aquarium.
The skimming pump is a Sicce PSK constant current (dc) pump designed to produce the best bubble size and generate an emulsion of air and water via a needle impeller. The opposed curved profile venturi promotes low consumption and is virtually maintenance-free.
The skimmer is directly supplied with water, so there is no need for a charge pump. This solution significantly reduces consumption and maintenance time. The contoured diffusion cup improves the separation of air and water, ensuring excellent stability even at first start-up.
The collection cup and inner neck are equipped with an ‘Easy Flip’ system with lip seals for a tight seal and easy extraction. The neck of the tumbler can be removed for easy cleaning. All hardware is made of TITANIUM, machined from solid. To get the best out of even the smallest components.
