Slightly Modified Skimmer, has all parts and pump. Contact for more questions, and please consult pictures. Everything that you see on the picture is included.
Aqua Medic Protein Skimmer: Turboflotor T1000 with pump. In-Sump Protein Skimmer for aquaria 25 to 250 gal.The Turboflotor T1000 is a powerful skimmer with a unique plumbing scheme that makes it the smartest little skimmer on the market. Taking advantage of the fact that the surface of your aquarium is where proteins collect naturally, the T1000 is designed to intake the water exiting the overflow of your tank. By delivering the surface skimmed water directly into the reaction chamber of the T1000, efficiency is maximized. If splicing into the drain-line plumbing is not an option in your system, the T1000 can be run from a tee off your main system pump or feed by a secondary pump. The T1000 Stand Alone requires a pump to vigorously re-circulate the volume of the reaction chamber, mixing it with finely chopped air bubbles. The T1000 is designed to be run on an Aqua Medic OR2700 (an Oceanrunner 2500 fitted with the formidable Needle Wheel Impellor). The skimmer itself is entirely Ozone ready; simply replace the vinyl airline with silicone tubing (Ozone safe tubing) to connect the ozone generator to the venturi. Either way you plumb it the Turboflotor T1000 Stand Alone is the best skimmer available in this price range and easily out-preforms skimmers costing twice the price.Height: 22"Footprint: 7-1/4" x 16"Aqua Medic Turboflotor 1000 Stand Alone Needle Wheel Protein Skimmer Consists of the following parts: The protein skimmer`s reaction pipe with 2 exhaust pipes and one intake in the middle, two PVC throttle valves, collection cup with top cover.Working Principle:The Aqua Medic Turboflotor 1000 Stand Alone Needle Wheel Protein Skimmer is the newest technology in protein skimming that has been developed and patented by Aqua Medic. With this skimmer, an optimum skimming efficiency is achieved due to its very low power consumption. An under pressure is created with the rotation of the pump that runs the skimmer. This water pressure causes water and air to be sucked into the pump housing and blown into the reaction pipe of the skimmer. The air is cut into fine, perfectly small bubbles by the needles by the needle wheel and noise is avoided by this construction.In the skimmer, the air bubbles rise in a counter current manner. This increases the retention time of the air bubbles in the skimmer. In the upper part of the reaction pipe, the air/water mixture is allowed to smooth and form a stable, dry ideal foam, that traps the waste particles. Minimal amounts of vital plankton and minerals are removed during this process. The skimmer`s gray PVC throttle valves allow the foam quality to be fine tuned.
Thank you.
