Growonix UV Sterilization - 2 GPM - 3/8-in Quick Connect - 120 VAC - Stainless Steel

Ultraviolet Water Treatment for Stored and Recirculated Water - 2 GPM

Untreated water can carry micro-organisms into a reservoir or hydroponic system, where they can stress plants and clog lines. This stainless steel ultraviolet unit treats water as it flows through, and the distributor states it is designed to remove 99.9% of micro-organisms. An audible alarm alerts you to a problem with the unit.

Rated for a maximum flow of 2 GPM, this unit suits home gardeners and small to mid-size indoor growers who treat water for a single system or a storage reservoir. It compactly measures 16.5 x 6 x 5 in and weighs 4 lb when shipped.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What flow rate can it handle?
A: The maximum flow rate is 2 GPM. Staying at or below that rate keeps water in the chamber long enough for treatment.

Q: Which systems does it fit?
A: It is listed for EX1000, EX1000-T, GX1000, EX600, EX600-T, GX600 and SLIMSCRUB systems. Check your system model before ordering.

A: Both the input and output are 3/8-in quick connect fittings. This lets you attach tubing without extra tools.

Q: How long does the lamp last?
A: The lamp is rated for 9,000 hours. Replace it at that interval, since ultraviolet output drops as a lamp ages.

Q: What is a ballast?
A: A ballast regulates the electrical current to the ultraviolet lamp. This unit has a 14W ballast and runs on 120 VAC.

Q: What water pressure can it take?
A: The maximum feed pressure is 125 PSI. Use a regulator if your supply could exceed it.
