{"product_id":"oase-bitron-uv-clarifier","title":"Oase Bitron UV Clarifier","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bitron clears floating algae and reduces the bacteria that cloud pond water, and its rotor wipes the quartz sleeve automatically as water flows through, so you're not stopping to scrub it clean yourself. Bypass technology keeps that clean-up effective even when your pump is running at a higher flow rate, and a quick-release housing with an automatic safety cut-off lets you service the lamp without exposing yourself to the UV light. It comes in five power ratings, from 24W up to 110W, so you can match it to your pond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"h4\"\u003eOverview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Oase Bitron UV Clarifier is a UVC pond unit built around a patented self-cleaning rotor, so the quartz sleeve around the lamp gets wiped clear of dirt automatically as pond water flows through it, rather than you needing to take the unit apart and clean it by hand. Water passing through the UV chamber has its floating algae cleared and its bacteria load reduced, which helps keep the pond looking clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBypass technology routes water past the lamp so the UV dose stays effective even when your pump is running at a higher flow rate, which matters if your filter system pushes a lot of water through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"h4\"\u003eKey benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-cleaning rotor wipes the quartz sleeve continuously, driven by the water flow itself\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBypass technology keeps UV radiation effective at higher flow rates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick-release housing with an automatic safety switch that shuts the lamp off when opened\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVisual indicator to check the lamp is lit without opening the unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndividually adjustable flow rate to match your filter pump\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated magnets to help protect filter equipment from limescale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImpact-resistant plastic casing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive power ratings, from 24W up to 110W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"h4\"\u003eSafety and servicing\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lamp housing opens via a quick-release closure, and a safety switch cuts the UVC lamp automatically the moment you open it, so there's no risk of exposing your eyes to the UV light while you're servicing it.

The suitable-pond figures given in the specifications table above are for the 36W model; the other wattages will suit different pond volumes and stocking levels, so use those figures as your starting point and scale your choice up or down to match your own pond, leaning towards a higher wattage for a koi pond or heavier stocking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2 class=\"h4\"\u003eWorking with your filter\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFlow rate through the Bitron can be adjusted individually, so you can tune it to whichever filter pump it's connected to. Built-in magnets are there to help protect that filter equipment from limescale deposits, and OASE's own clear water guarantee applies when the Bitron is run alongside an OASE BioSmart, BioTec or ProfiClear filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUVC power\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36 W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum pond volume\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40 m³\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum volume for ponds with fish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20 m³\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum volume for koi ponds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 m³\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable for ponds up to max.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40.0 m3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable for ponds with fish stock\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20.0 m3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSuitable for ponds with koi\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10.0 m3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"AquaticsHub","offers":[{"title":"24W","offer_id":57604906615157,"sku":null,"price":328.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"36W","offer_id":57604906647925,"sku":null,"price":386.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"55 W","offer_id":57604906680693,"sku":null,"price":449.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"72W","offer_id":57604906713461,"sku":null,"price":490.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"110W","offer_id":57604906746229,"sku":null,"price":551.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/0610\/4949\/files\/oase106461_bitronc24w_1.jpg?v=1790325963","url":"https:\/\/aquaticshub.co.uk\/products\/oase-bitron-uv-clarifier","provider":"AquaticsHub","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
