Mid-size, high-clarity UV-C sterilizer for ponds and aquariums. This Classic 40W model uses 3/4" ports and adds a manual wiper to keep the quartz sleeve clean between services—ideal for medium ponds, larger displays, and reef life-support polishing loops.
Classic housing with 3/4" inlet/outlet for easy inline plumbing
Single low-pressure 40W UV-C lamp for algae/bacteria/protozoa control
Integrated manual wiper helps maintain sleeve clarity and consistent UV output
Weather-resistant (non-submersible) body for indoor or protected outdoor installs
Clear end cap shows lamp-on status; quick access for lamp/sleeve changes
Note: Wipers are not recommended for saltwater use; using a wiper on saltwater can void the wiper warranty. Many marine installs choose the non-wiper variant and clean the sleeve during lamp changes.

Quick start/installation guide
Plumb after mechanical filtration on a pressure line; avoid gravity-feed.
Use unions/valves to set and service flow to your target dose.
Operate the wiper with the lamp off and pressure relieved.
Protect from weather; do not submerge.
Replace the lamp every ~9–12 months of continuous use to maintain dose.
