  • Advanced electronic ballast for energy-efficient operation
  • Stainless-steel fasteners for easy installation in any orientation (vertical or horizontal)
  • Can be installed before or after your filter
  • Filtered inspection port allows safe viewing without UV exposure
  • Cut-off switch keeps UV light contained, preventing eye damage
  • Handles high flow rates and pressure (up to 8.7 PSI / 20 ft of head)
  • Qualifies for OASE Clear Water Guarantee when paired with compatible filter and pump
  • 2-year warranty

How Flow Optimization Works:

Unlike standard UV clarifiers where water flows straight through, the Bitron C Premium spirals water around the UVC lamp(s), dramatically increasing exposure time. This ensures every drop of water receives maximum UVC treatment, resulting in superior algae elimination and pathogen control—critical for large ponds and koi systems.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Which Bitron C Premium model do I need—60W or 180W?
A: Choose based on your pond size and flow rate. The Bitron C 60 handles ponds up to 34,870 gallons with flow rates up to 10,600 GPH. The Bitron C 180 is for very large ponds up to 36,000 gallons with flow rates up to 26,400 GPH. Also consider your system's flow rate—the UV must be able to handle your pump's GPH. These are professional-grade units designed for large koi ponds, swim ponds, and commercial installations.

Q: Can I install this unit horizontally or does it need to be vertical?
A: The Bitron C Premium can be installed either vertically or horizontally, giving you maximum installation flexibility. The stainless-steel fasteners make mounting easy in any orientation. You can also install it before or after your filter depending on your system design—many koi keepers install UV after biological filtration to avoid killing beneficial bacteria, while others prefer before filtration. Both approaches work well.

Q: What makes the Bitron C Premium different from standard UV clarifiers?
A: The Bitron C Premium features flow-optimized technology that spirals water around the UVC lamp(s) instead of flowing straight through. This dramatically increases UV exposure time, making it much more effective at eliminating algae and pathogenic bacteria. The advanced electronic ballast is more energy-efficient, and the professional-grade construction with stainless-steel fasteners and safety features makes it ideal for serious koi ponds and large water features. It's designed for high-flow, high-pressure systems that standard UVs can't handle.
