Fluidized bed reactor for all sumps
Simplicity Chemical Reactor is a free-standing fluidized bed chemical filtration
reactor for use in any type sumps to incorporate chemical filtration.
Fluidization of chemical media and 100% bypass-free operation ensures
ultra-efficient chemical filtration.
Features and benefits:
Reactor accepts up to 16 oz of any loose media: PhosLock, PURA Complete,
NitrateLock, PURA Carbon and all others!
50 - 500 GPH flow rate (requires small pump or powerhead for operation, must be
purchased separately)
Bagless operation. No bags, no mess!
300-micron replaceable screens.
Self-cleaning feature.
Overall dimensions 5.5 in DIA x 5.25 in Height.
A fluidized bed chemical reactor is the most efficient way to implement chemical
filtration. The Simplicity Chemical Reactor is not only super-efficient, it is
also the easiest and most user-friendly way of implementing chemical filter
media in any sump type filter.
The Simplicity Reactor has been designed to accept any loose filter media. Media
that is sold in bags or pouches must be removed from its pouch and poured
directly into the reactor. This will ensure bypass free chemical filtration.
The Simplicity Reactor employs 300-micron screens for containing media, making
it suitable for even very fine medias such as ion-exchange resins and very
small-grained carbons. The symmetrical design of the reactor offers a screen
self-cleaning feature. Whenever screen clogs with aquarium debris and the flow
rate becomes reduced, removing reactor form base and flipping it 180 degrees
restores flow rate.
The Simplicity Chemical Reactor can be operated in two distinct modes:
MODE 1 - fluidizes up to 8 oz (225 g) of media at flow rates up to 100
GPH (378 LPH), and
MODE 2 - up-flows through up to 16 oz (454 g) of media at flow rates up
to 500 GPH (1893 LPH).
Both operational modes are equally efficient and the specific fluidization
characteristics are media type and flow rate dependent. In this respect the
reactor is self-regulating, continually providing bypass free chemical
filtration through a broad range of flow rates. The reactor works equally well
whether it is partially exposed or fully submerged; however, it must remain in
upright position to work properly.
