Aquael Ultramax External Filter[Max Output - 1500L/H]

Patented innovations ULTRAMAX is distinguished by its substantial filter mass. Unique features such as the pre-filter, the double ball valve system, and the self-priming filter system ensure user convenience and superior filtration efficiency. Prefilter The Aquael ULTRAMAX filters come with a generous 1.5-liter pre-filter integrated into the unit's lid. This thoughtful design effectively captures larger debris, significantly decreasing the need for frequent filter maintenance. Cleaning the pre-filter is a breeze; just lift the lid, take out the sponge from the basket, and rinse it under running water. This maintenance routine does not require removing the unit from the cabinet, making it both easy and efficient. Double Ball Valve System The ULTRAMAX filters feature a unique double ball valve system that solves a typical problem encountered by aquarists—the spillage of water when disconnecting the inlet and outlet hoses. This clever system simultaneously seals the filter inlet and outlet along with the hoses, preventing any unintended water escape and reducing mess during maintenance. Self-Priming System Starting the filter is effortless with the self-priming system. You only need to perform 2 to 4 simple piston movements to fill the filter with aquarium water. This straightforward mechanism guarantees that you can quickly set up the filter without any hassles. Smooth Performance Regulation Adjusting the filter’s performance is user-friendly and straightforward. The filter is equipped with a clearly marked small lever on the right valve for easy performance regulation. This design ensures that even novice users can effortlessly tailor the filter to their specific needs. Effective Filtration The ULTRAMAX filters are engineered for efficient mechanical and biological filtration. They come with multiple filter cartridges situated in 1.9-liter baskets. Depending on the model, you can have 3 to 5 baskets, providing a total filter media capacity of 6.3 to 10.10 liters. This setup guarantees thorough filtration for a healthier aquatic environment. Discreet Operation The filter’s design minimizes operational noise effectively. The precisely designed pump impeller, its chambers, and the ceramic impeller shaft collaborate to ensure that the filter operates almost silently. This makes it ideal for placement in quiet areas like bedrooms or offices. Fully Equipped Every ULTRAMAX filter is delivered fully equipped with selected cartridges for mechanical and biological filtration, along with all necessary accessories. This means that the filter is ready for immediate use upon purchase. Additionally, the adaptable configuration of filter media allows you to customize the filter’s performance to meet the specific requirements of your aquarium.
