Function
The Aquarium UVC ensures crystal-clear water. The UV lamp produces ultraviolet light with a wavelength of exactly 254 nm,
thus meaning best effectiveness at this wavelength. The sterilising UV lamp reduces pathogenic bacteria, thereby
reducing the risk of infection via the water. The UV radiation gives no fluctuations to water values and no detrimental
effect on the purification bacteria in the filter.
