Reefer DC-Skimmer
Smart, High-performance, self-leveling skimmers
The REEFER DC Skimmers include self-leveling technology that prevents over-skimming and full cups from spilling while continuing to aerate the water.
Self-Leveling
The Self-leveling feature is activated whenever the wetness of the foam in the neck exceeds the user-adjusted “over-skim” threshold. The intensity of the pump is immediately reduced to prevent the over-skim and then gradually increased or decreased, a bit at a time, according to the foam wetness, until the preset pump intensity is reached and stable skimming is restored.
Optimal waste removal
The REEFER DC Skimmer features a combination of self-leveling tech, a PSK DC pump, proportionally sized venturi, a bubble diffuser and reaction body that optimizes air-water contact time.
Optimal air/water ratio and contact time
The diffusion chamber evenly disperses the fine bubbles created by the PSK DC pump across the skimmer cone, without reducing air or water flow.
Sensor to pump
The REEFER DC Skimmers come with a dual-action solid-state sensor that monitors foam wetness and waste level, allowing the ReefRun Dual Controller to regulate the DC Pump accordingly.
Quiet
The REEFER DC Skimmers are exceptionally quiet due to the PSK DC Pump, rubber connectors and an air intake silencer.
- Dual Controller - Connect both a REEFER DC Skimmer and a ReefRun DC Pump to your ReefRun Dual Controller
- Self-Leveling - Prevents over-skimming by monitoring foam wetness and regulating the pump’s intensity, while maintaining maximal water and air flow at all times.
-
Quick Actions - The Reefer DC skimmer can be integrated into ReefBeat, allowing for customized Feed, Maintenance and Emergency mode Quick Actions.
-
Schedule - Allows you to set a customized daily schedule of active and inactive skimming periods.
-
Peace of mind - Receive notifications when it is time to empty the collection cup or if the skimmer pump malfunctions.
The REEFER DC Skimmer is run via the ReefRun Dual Controller, which is sold separately as it can also operate the ReefRun DC return pump at the same time! Combine them into your ReefBeat eco-system for more efficient reef-keeping.
Upgrade kit
If you own a regular AC pump REEFER Skimmer, you can turn it into a smart DC skimmer with an upgrade kit
