OCTO series Regal recirculating external protein skimmer (Regal -E) is an out-of –sump protein skimmer featuring high-quality cast acrylic body construction , easy disassembly for maintenance , a precision control gate valve and a hybrid conical body which helps to naturally stabilize and concentrate the organic rich foam as it rises . Water is recirculated within the skimmer for cleaner water output.
Regal –E is run by our very own controllable VarioS skimmer pump , which features is pinwheel impellers , a detachable controller , high quality ceramic shaft and bearing to reduce wear and tear , and the latest variable speed flow technology for refined control , enhanced performance , energy-efficiency and safer operations .
Unlike the vast majority of circulation pumps which uses alternating current (AC), our VarioS Pump boasts several key advantages over traditional AC pump, namely , higher energy efficiency , safer operations at a working voltage of 24V and most notably , the variable speed control to adjust the ideal mix of air and water flow into the skimmer .
Enhanced Control
With the VarioS controller, users have control over the flow rates by selecting amongst five preset speed settings; indicated by five lit LEDs. A 15 or 60 minute feed mode can also be engaged or disengaged with the push of a button.
In addition, a rotatable volute allows users to adjust the output orientation horizontally or vertically (up or down), depending on their needs.
