10x1 pressure reducer Aquili

The heart of each CO2 system for aquarium

The pressure reducer represents the most important component of any CO2 fertilization system. Its function is to transform the high pressure inside the cylinder in a stable and controllable pressure, suitable for the delivery of carbon dioxide in the aquarium.

In CO2 cylinders the gas is stored at pressures that can reach about 50 bars. Without a reduction system it would be impossible to correctly dose a few bubbles per minute needed to grow aquatic plants.

Aquili PLANT Plus is born precisely to perform this function with maximum precision, safety and reliability.

Self-regulating piston system for greater stability

Unlike the simplest systems, the PLUS PLUS reducer uses a self-regulating piston technology developed to ensure constant delivery over time.

This system allows you to:

• keep the output pressure stable
• Reduce dispensing variations
• Increase dosage accuracy
• Improve fertilization management
• Limit frequent adjustments

For planted aquariums the stability of supply represents a fundamental aspect to keep CO2 levels constant and encourage balanced growth of plants.

Fine adjustment for precise control of bubbles

One of the aspects most appreciated by aquarists is the presence of the fine adjustment knob.

Thanks to high constructive accuracy it is possible:

• Set a few bubbles per minute
• Adapt the flow to any aquarium
• Manage small and large tanks
• Extremely gradual adjustments
• Optimize CO2 consumption

This feature is particularly important in aquascing aquariums and in the dwarf aquariums, where small variations can significantly influence the water parameters.

Optimal pressure for aquarium systems

The reducer lowers the pressure coming from the cylinder by bringing it to about 2 - 2.5 bar, ideal value to feed correctly:

• Glass diffusers
• sprayers
• CO2 reactors
• Ceramic diffusers
• Advanced fertilization systems

The pressure is maintained stable to ensure a uniform carbon dioxide distribution inside the tank.

Prepared for two pressure gauges

This version of the reducer is equipped with holes dedicated to the installation of two available pressure gauges separately.

The preparation allows you to monitor:

• cylinder pressure
• Outgoing operating pressure

For those who want an even more accurate management of the system, the pressure gauges allow to constantly verify the system status and the remaining amount of gas.

Users who prefer an already complete solution can orientate themselves towards PLUS Plus versions already equipped with pressure gauges.

Security designed for daily use

Aquili He has developed this reducer, paying particular attention to security aspects.

The integrate system:

• Internal safety valve
• Anti-loss connection
• Tube fixing system with tightening
• High reliability components
• Robust structure for continuous use

The safety valve intervenes automatically in the event of anomalies of internal pressure, helping to protect the system.

High resistance nickel-plated brass body

The main body is made of high quality brass with nickel-plated external coating.

This building offers numerous advantages:

• High mechanical robustness
• Long lasting time
• Corrosion protection
• Greater wear resistance
• professional appearance

The constructive quality Made in Italy guarantees reliable performance even after years of use.

Universal compatibility with standard CO2 systems

The reducer uses standard measures that can be easily found on the market.

Compatible with:

• CO2 cylinders step 10x1
• CO2 6x4 mm tubes
• installations Aquili
• Compatible handicraft systems
• Fertilization systems for planted aquariums

The standardization of connections simplifies any replacements or enlargement of the plant.

Ideal for planted aquariums and aquascaping

Aquili PLANT PLUS is recommended for:

• Cantumed aquariums
• Natural aquariums
• Professional aquascaping
• High-tech aquariums
• Nano aquariums with CO2
• Densally planted tropical tanks
• Layout Nature Aquarium

The controlled co2 delivery allows plants to make the most of lighting and fertilization, favoring healthy and luxuriant growth.
