Aqua Ultraviolet – 57 Watt Classic UV Sterilizer, 3/4" (Black) with Wiper

Overview

A workhorse UV-C sterilizer for medium–large ponds and serious aquarium systems. This Classic 57W model with 3/4" ports adds a manual wiper to keep the quartz sleeve clear between services—great for maintaining consistent UV output in high-load systems.

Key Features

  • Classic housing with 3/4" inlet/outlet for easy inline plumbing

  • Single low-pressure 57W UV-C lamp for algae, bacteria, and protozoa control

  • Integrated manual wiper helps maintain sleeve clarity and stable performance

  • Weather-resistant (non-submersible) body for indoor or protected outdoor installs

  • Clear end cap shows lamp-on status; service-friendly layout

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 version and clean the sleeve during lamp changes.

    • ~1,800 GPH ≈ 60,000 µW·s/cm²

    • ~1,440 GPH ≈ 75,000 µW·s/cm²

  4. Protect from weather; do not submerge.

  5. Replace the lamp every ~9–12 months of continuous use to maintain dose.
