APEX WATER ACCESSORIES
Temperature Probe
Keeping a stable and consistent temperature in the aquarium is paramount to the health of your inhabitants. Monitoring temperature and especially temperature changes throughout the day is mission critical.
Having a quality temperature monitoring solution that also alerts you to over or under temperature situations is a must for a successful aquarium.
INCLUDED WITH
pH Probe
Keeping pH stable is critically important to healthy coral in a reef aquarium. A stable pH is also less stressful for all the aquarium’s inhabitants.
Monitoring pH not only allows you to tune in desirable parameter stability but also serves as an important warning system to warn you of negative chemistry changes.
INCLUDED WITH
ORP Probe
Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP) is the measurement of water cleanliness. ORP level indirectly indicates the ability of beneficial bacteria in the aquarium to reduce contaminants like nitrates, ammonia ECT. Ultimately it is in part a measure of the electrical charge available to break down these contaminants.
Sudden changes in ORP are often reflective of organically bad things happening the aquarium. If a fish passes or too much food is available, the change in ORP can prove to be a much needed signal to investigate or take action.
INCLUDED WITH
Optical Leak Sensor
The Optical Multi Surface Leak Sensor is an improved version of the Solid-Surface Leak Sensor (LD-2).
Improvements include an epoxied design that allows the sensor to be utilized repeatedly and an optical sensor that allows the sensor to be placed on any surface including metal and epoxied cement floors without returning a false activation.
INCLUDED WITH
Solid Surface Leak Sensor
When it comes to water on the floor, time is critical. Upon contact with liquid this sensor will communicate to your Apex to send an alert or trigger other actions.
With a wire length of 5 meters (16.3ft) this sensor is a must have for placement inside and outside of your sump.
Protect your aquarium and your home
INCLUDED WITH
Optical Sensor
Think smart float switch. The optical sensor indicates the presence of water above or below the sensor location.
The Magnetic Optical Sensor features an improved look and feel. The sealed housing and magnetic mounting design prevent water incursion and make mounting quick and easy.
INCLUDED WITH
Liquid Level Sensor (LLS)
How much water has been added? How much solution is left? Until now the only way to find out was to measure it yourself.
New to aquarists, and exclusive to Apex, is the ability to specifically measure water depth in inches or centimeters. Available in four different sizes- 4″, 15″ 23″ and 35″ there is a perfect length for water level monitoring in, aquariums, reservoirs, and liquid containers.
Take level monitoring to the next level with the LSS.
