per item
Suitable for ponds UP TO 19,200 gallons for clarification (low bio-load/sunlight factor, 1/2 this size for high). This is dependent on stocking density and the amount of sunlight the pond is subject to.
A max flow rate of 9,600 gallons per hour (we recommend under 6,600 gph for best results).
Suitable for ponds, aquariums, or aquarium systems up to 3300 gallons for level one or even level two sterilization (dependent on other factors such as turnover, stocking, etc.) with a suggested max flow rate of 3300 gallons per hour.
Please READ these Flow Calculations for how we arrive at these numbers.
Individually chambered lamps for optimum efficiency and contact time.
Fused quartz glass sleeves which ensure that germicidal lamps are able to reach their optimum 'burn temperature' where the highest amount of UVC radiation is emitted. Also facilitates simple lamp replacement by keeping lamp separate from the pond water.
Can be connected to either flexible or rigid plumbing using the appropriate plumbing fittings (not supplied). To ensure unrestricted flow, it is recommended that the unit is not plumbed in with anything less than 1-1/2” pipe work
Can be used for pressurized systems up to 43.5 psi
Easily wall mountable
Very durable heavy duty PVC construction
Approximately 40 inches long X 15 inches wide x 4 inches high (102 cm x 38 cm x 10 cm)
Flow is non-directional, either port can be used for inlet or outlet
New generation long-life electronic ballast that is also easily replaced (see TMC Replacement Ballasts)
Supplied complete with a 5m cable and a 24 month guarantee

Flow Calculations for how we arrive at our flow and aquarium size calculations.
We go by these calculations NOT what any manufacture claims on their box! In the case of TMC and many other manufactures, they tend to over rate their UV clarification abilities. While for Sterilization, TMC in particular tends to rate the tank size per Vecton UV for level two Sterilization (albeit a little high here as well), NOT level one!
On most UVs these numbers which, while not perfect, and assume a few parameters such as low water turbidity and proper spacing between lamp/sleeve & inside wall of the UV, has proven over the years to be highly accurate for the author of the above cited article (Carl Strohmeyer). For us to change this formula to fit certain manufacturer sizing recommendations as some have asked would be highly dishonest for us to do.
Flow rates are based on actual flow rates after Head Pressure is factored in.

Designed for large ponds, hydroponics systems, or aquarium systems, such as those incorporating pressure filters, pressure circuits, sand filters, and venturis.
In fact, this TMC 110 PRO UV is superior or at the very least equal to other UVs in efficiency/effectiveness that are designed for large ponds or aquariums (systems) that often cost vastly more $$!
As an example, this AAP 110 PRO UV has a higher dwell time than a popular 114 watt UV sold elsewhere & is thus more effective based on the science of dwell time numbers.
This is the UV sterilizer Carl Strohmeyer, the author of many professional pond/aquarium articles has personally used in multiple applications and highly recommends with 100% success!

The Tropic Marine Centre Pond & Aquarium TRUE UV Sterilizers feature solid construction. Built by a company long recognized by aquarium maintenance professionals as an industry leader in its innovation & quality of products (our founder's large aquarium maintenance company has used these UVs in 100s of applications with superior results and zero issues when installed correctly).
THESE CATEGORY 'A' STERILIZERS HAVE THE HIGHEST DWELL TIME OF ANY COMPARABLE BRAND UV STERILIZER!
As well, these UV Clarifiers are built with low pressure, high output UV-C bulbs, which has maximize water contact/dwell time. Unlike many comparable high priced units.
New LOWER prices from the UV Sterilizer Experts here at American Aquarium Products.
North Americas Largest Seller of TMC UVs!
Many pond UV Clarifier/Sterilizers currently on the market come with high price tags for features such as “wipers”, which do little to improve UV Sterilization (& often break quickly). When one considers a UV should be serviced every six months in the first place (wipers do little for the main problem that needs servicing; calcium buildup).
As well, ALL models of TMC UVs are quite simple to change the UV Lamp. In most cases, the housing opens with the removal of a few screws & the bulb easily slide out of the quartz sleeve.
Quite bluntly, there's no better UV Sterilizer/Clarifier watt per watt than the TMC UV Sterilizer/Clarifier at any price.
Then when one considers these AAP Vecton/Advantage UVs will last a decade or more with regular maintenance compared to a few years for the average Chinese built UV (even the better ones), the cost long term is generally less!!!
Finally, please note, while our suggested aquarium/pond sizes; as well as recommended flow rates, may seem lower than most other web sites UV Sterilizers/Clarifiers. Even what the manufacturer writes on the box. This is because we publish tested, proven flow rate, & aquarium/pond size suggestions based on our 30 years experience. Not best case scenario or even impossible flow rates.
As well, recommended aquarium or pond sizes are ONLY a guide and our recommendation often varies from the manufacturer since water turnover and flow rates are much more important!
Know that when you purchase a UV Sterilizer/Clarifier from us whether the TMC, Terminator, or others, which recommendations are based off real world experience & facts not manufacturer claims based on perfect conditions that due not exist in an aquarium or pond.

TMC UV Sterilizer/Clarifier Features:
New ergonomic, compact design
New energy efficient, electronic control gear
Universal 2" and 63 mm solvent weld inlet and outlet ports
Since this is a PROFESSIONAL heavy duty professional model UV sterilizer, we also recommend that it to be hard plumbed either via 2" or Metric 63 mm PVC this can also be stepped down to 1.5" pvc after the connection (this hard plumbed method with a quick disconnect is preferred from Carl's extensive experience).
The use of 1.5" heavy duty flexible tubing using the supplied 1.5" hose barbs is another option.
If you are not reasonably handy with such installations, hiring a professional might be necessary (as it's impossible for our staff to be able to help with a unique installation).
Please consider this prior to purchase as we have had some damage the UV during installation (our professional maintenance companies has installed 100s of this product without an issue yet).
The TMC 110 PRO UV Sterilizer/Clarifier now includes two 1.5 inch hose barbs for more simple vinyl tubing installations, these fit and GLUE (with PVC Cement) inside the inlet/outlet ports.
Please note that the SAE (2) inch pvc fitting is in the inner part of the inlet/outlet ports while the Metric 63 mm pvc fitting is in the outer part of the inlet/outlet ports. This is to allow for universal fitting in both USA & Canada (as well as the rest of the world).
As well, the use of PVC pipe in these fittings is required for best results.
Another suggestion is to utilize a (2) inch union for easy disconnect such as the slip by slip union pictured to the right (a threaded union can also be utilized).
Not included- sold at plumbing supply stores.
This is especially helpful in hard-plumb applications, although the use of the hose barbs makes this suggestion less necessary in our opinion.
