Recommended Flow Rate for UV Dosages
at 30,000 µw/cm2 (EOL) GPH: 6,600 (Max Flow Rate)at 45,000 µw/cm2 (EOL) GPH: 4,400at 60,000 µw/cm2 (EOL) GPH: 3,300at 75,000 µw/cm2 (EOL) GPH: 2,640at 90,000 µw/cm2 (EOL) GPH: 2,200 (Min Flow Rate)
Information for Reef Tanks
A UV rated in the 30,000 or 45,000 µw/cm2 (EOL) is ideal for the reef environment. UV’s used at higher kill rates will destroy the planktonic food supply for the reef.
Information for Marine Fish
(No reef or live rock) A UV rated in the 75,000 or 90,000 µw/cm2 (EOL) will be the most effective at controlling fish disease. All UV dosages are calculated at the end of lamp life (14 months).

ffective August 18, 2025, Aqua Ultraviolet will implement the following modification(s):
The SL 100 Transformer will be updated to a universal electronic ballast.
This update replaces the outdated magnetic ballast, ignitor, and—where applicable—the step transformer.
With this change, the SL 120Vac system NEMA transformer enclosure will be reduced in size from 12” x 12” x 6” to 4” x 4” x 12”.
The SL 100-Watt 240Vac enclosure will remain 4” x 4” x 12”.
3. Impact of Change
Form/Fit/Function: Form and Function remain unchanged. Fit will change due to the smaller enclosure on the SL100 120Vac system.
Compatibility: Existing SL 100-Watt units in service are unaffected. Replacement transformers will be direct-fit compatible.
Performance: The new design improves lamp performance with proper installation, voltage, plumbing, and protections.
