element™ Ca Calcium Reactor

Versatile, compact calcium reactor for up to 250 US gallons/950 liters

The element™ Ca Reactor provides and maintains a virtually constant calcium, magnesium and alkalinity ratio, which is critical to the long term success of reef aquaria. The element™ Ca Reactor functions by using CO₂ to react with a calcium reactor media such as Seachem’s Reef Reactor™. CO₂ acidifies the water flowing through the reactor and thereby dissolves the media which releases calcium, magnesium, carbonates among other elements and components of the chosen reactor media. A CO₂ filled tank along with a pH probe and preferably a CO₂ controlling system are required and/or highly recommended for proper functionality of the element™ Ca Reactor.

Features

Easily Removable Inner Chamber

The inner chamber can be removed without full breakdown making it easy to clean, change or top off media

CO₂ Recycling Feature

Make full use of CO₂ injection by recirculating it using the element™ Ca's CO₂recycling feature. This also offers potential savings on the cost of CO₂canisters and refills

High Capacity Chamber

The reactor chamber can hold up to 1.2 Liters of your choice of calcium reactor media (e.g. Seachem Reef Reactor™)

Effluent Control Valve

Easily control the release of dissolved media into the aquarium. The water can be directed back into the sump, directly to the aquarium, or even a protein skimmer such as the aquavitro® division™ series .

Highly Reactive Probe Placement

Allows for rapid response by controllers to avoid over-shooting CO₂ injection. Saves CO₂ and allows for consistent and efficient dosing

Powerful External Pump

Allows for higher column flow volume with more contact time and surface area. Allows for easy maintenance of the pump at anytime.

element™ M Media Reactor

Versatile, compact media reactor for up to 100 US gallons/380 liters

The element™ M Reactor is a filter media reactor that allows for the use of virtually any type of filter media in either fluidized or non-fluidized flow - including fine particle media such as resins. The element™ M Reactor allows for excellent efficient reaction with consistent even flow from the bottom of the reactor to the top. Using the adjustable internal plate, filter media can even be separated to allow for various uses within the same reactor. The element™ M Reactor features a by-pass valve which allows for fine flow regulation for even the most delicate media such as beaded resins.
