Patented solutions with pre-filter

ULTRAMAX is distinguished by its large filter media capacity. Patented solutions such as the pre-filter, the dual ball valve system, and the self-priming filter system guarantee user convenience and high filter performance. A spacious 1.5-liter pre-filter, built into the unit's lid, effectively captures large debris, significantly reducing the frequency of filter maintenance. Cleaning the pre-filter itself is very easy and does not even require removing the unit from the cabinet. You simply need to lift the lid, remove the sponge from the basket, and rinse it under running water.

Dual ball valve system and continuously adjustable performance

Aquarium enthusiasts know that a critical step requiring access to the inside of the filter usually involves disconnecting the inlet and outlet hoses from the unit. The water remaining in the filter usually spills onto the floor, which understandably causes concern. To prevent this, a patented dual ball valve system has been used. It simultaneously closes the filter inlet and outlet in the lid and the hose lumen, preventing uncontrolled water leakage. Controlling the filter's performance is extremely easy and intuitive. This is done by turning the small lever on the right valve. It is easy to operate and clearly labeled, making it easy for aquarium enthusiasts to adjust the capacity, even if they are doing so for the first time.

Effective & discreet

A large number of filter cartridges, housed in baskets of 1.9 liters each, ensure effective mechanical and biological filtration. The number of baskets ranges from 3 to 5, which, in combination with the pre-filter capacity, results in a total capacity of 6.3 to 10.10 liters for filter media. The clever design of the pump impeller and its chambers, as well as the ceramic impeller shaft, ensures almost silent operation of the filter, so that you can place the aquarium even in your bedroom or study.

Fully equipped

The Ultramax aquarium filter is supplied complete with appropriately selected cartridges for mechanical and biological filtration, as well as the necessary accessories. This means you can be sure that your Ultramax is ready to operate immediately after purchase. Ultramax also allows for a flexible configuration of the filter media. This enables you to adapt the filter's operation to the needs of your aquarium.

Low power consumption

All ULTRAMAX filter models are characterized by very low power consumption. The ULTRAMAX 1000 has a power consumption of only 15 W, the ULTRAMAX 1500 has a power consumption of 16 W, and the ULTRAMAX 2000 has a power consumption of 24 W. Thanks to technical changes to the filters, the energy consumption of the model 2000, which has been manufactured since September 8, 2023, has been reduced by almost 30% and now only amounts to 17 W.
