Product Description
The AP902 Protein Skimmer is a high performance, 2 pump model for aquariums from 1800 to 2500 lts. It incorporates the patented "Neuhaus" Pinwheel system in two modified Eheim 1260 pumps, resulting in unsurpassed skimming performance.Air is drawn in automatically through an air intake adaptor. The rotation of the water/air mixture provides a long contact time with the pollutants resulting in a highly efficient performance. The extremely fine water/air mixture is pumped into the contact tube, where it rises and is collected in a removable cup at the top of the skimmer.When a skimmer is running it will produce a head of foam which is determined by the amount of air and the bubble size. A simple general way of comparing the relative performance of a skimmer without even running it is to look at the neck diameter where it enters the cup. The larger this is, the greater the performance, as it takes a greater head of foam to be able to climb up a larger diameter tube.The riser tube diameter of the APF902 is 140mm. Compare that with your existing skimmer and you will understand what we are talking about. Tapered tubes simply reduce the opening to cope with a smaller volume of foam.The AP902 produces a maximum level of air of 1200 lts per hour.Technical Data:For US 110V specifications please visit our D-D USA section of the web siteAP902 Skimmer : Article No. 88006 Can be stood either in or beside a sump or beside the aquarium.Can be gravity or pump fed (supply pump not supplied).Water throughput - 3000 lts/hr, (667 UK gallons/hr).Installation kit - item 88054 (pump not included).Self cleaning head - Item 88101 (increases performance by 20%)1200 litres of air/hr are produced at the venturi.Dimensions:L 490mm W 490mm H 980mm (allowing for removal of the cup)Hard pipe connections - Supply - 32mm Return - 50mmSkimmer body - 250mm diameterRiser tube - 140
