Powerful and compact protein skimmer with a DC pump powering it's filterting action.

The large Comline DOC Skimmer 9012 is designed for use in mixed seawater aquariums / soft coral aquariums from 200 to 1,200 liters (53 to 317 USgal.), or for sensitive reef biotopes with hard corals up to 500 liters (132 USgal.).

It operates according to the TUNZE flash skimming principle and acquires the water through an efficient surface suction with a surface film removal, and can therefore also be used as a "stand-alone" solution in the aquarium.

The TUNZE Foamer generates large volumes of fine air bubbles with a diameter between .1 and .3 mm (.004" - .012") and is especially quiet during the operation. Silicone buffers on the skimmer prevent the transfer of vibrations to the aquarium glass pane. The Comline DOC Skimmer with a Magnet Holder for glass up to a thickness of 15 mm (2/3") is delivered installation-ready.

Features

  • The Flash Skimming Principle enables... highly efficient foam production. Organic-rich surface water is mixed thoroughly with small air bubbles in the TUNZE Foamer. On the surface of the air bubbles, pollutants such as protein, cellulose, dead cells, etc. are adsorbed immediately, the air bubbles are very fine, with a diameter between .1 and .3 mm (.004" - .012"). The water / air mixture expands and stabilizes in the skimmer cup reactor, the water returns to the aquarium, and the protein-loaded air bubbles spill over into the skimmer cup. The patented anti-overfoaming system intermediate chamber prevents the skimmer from overfoaming and controls the skimmer performance, depending on the water level and organic load. The particularly high efficiency of the flash skimming principle, compared to large skimmers with long contact time, is obtained because the substances adsorbed by the air bubbles are not released again, thus they don't return to the aquarium water.
  • Electronically Controllable by the Turbelle... Controller. Micro-processor controlled PM motor operating on safety extra-low voltage of 12 V to 24 V. Blocking and run-dry protection.
  • Energy Saving
  • The skimmer cup with a... capacity of 0.7 liters (0.18 USgal.) also contains the foam reactor, which can be easily removed.
  • Air flow regulation and silencer... for an exceptionally quiet operation.
  • Surface suction with surface film... removal.
  • Intermediate chamber with a patented... anti-overfoaming system.
  • Silicone buffers on the skimmer... prevent the transfer of vibrations to the aquarium glass pane.
  • TUNZE Foamer 9012.040, high air... flow performance and low energy consumption.
  • Attachment with a patented Magnet... Holder for a glass thickness of up to 15 mm (2/3").
  • Bubble-free outgoing water.
