Tunze Master DOC Skimmer 9480

The characteristic features of the Master DOC skimmer model series are primarily ergonomics and efficiency. It is an efficient unit, which represents a real technical evolution of today's protein skimmers for aquariums. Master DOC skimmer has been designed for the use in aquarium cabinets and can make do with a variable water level without interruption of the foam production. The high air output is beneficial especially for heavy stocking density in aquariums of sensitive hard corals. In a complete filter system, they can also be used as a stand-alone unit. Absolute plug and skim: After the installation and connection of the Hydrofoamer, the units are operational !

In order to use the water energy at the outlet of the skimmer, all Master DOC skimmers are fitted with a removable post-filter which carries out a perfect mechanical filtration through 50µm acrylic wadding fibres with little biological action. This ensures that no unwanted nutrient and nitrate sources develop in case of longer cleaning intervals. The post-filter can also be filled with other filter media, such as activated carbon or phosphate absorbers; the filter can be replaced easily.

TUNZE® Hydrofoamer Silence 9420.04 is a pump specifically developed for protein skimmers. The Hydrofoamer generates large volumes of fine air bubbles with a diameter of between 0.1 to 0.3 mm (.0039 to .011 in.). It has an energy consumption of only 16 W at an air output of 850 l/h (224.5 USgal./h) which places this air generator at the top of its product class. At a water flow of 1,300 l/h (343 USgal./h), it is also used to supply the aquarium water to the skimmer.
