KW Zone Dophin CF700 Canister Filter with UV - 750 L/h

The KW Zone Dophin CF700 is the entry point into the Dophin UV canister range, rated at 750 litres an hour for aquariums up to 80 litres. The built-in 7W UV steriliser runs inline with the filtration, reducing free-swimming algae, bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoans, which is the difference between a clear tank and one that turns green every summer.

Key Features

• 750 L/h maximum output, suitable for aquariums up to 80 litres (21 US gallons).
• Built-in 7W UV steriliser that reduces free-swimming algae, bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoans.
• Two-layer media bucket covering mechanical and biological filtration.
• Supplied with black sponge and white wool media.
• Quiet operation, suited to smaller display tanks in living spaces.
• External canister design keeps hardware out of the tank, which matters more on a small aquarium.

Technical Specifications

Setup & Maintenance

Site the canister below the water line of the tank so the siphon primes correctly. Rinse mechanical media in tank water rather than tap water to protect the biological colony. Replace the UV lamp roughly annually, since output drops long before the lamp stops lighting.

Choosing the Right Size

Match the filter to tank volume rather than flow alone. The CF700 suits tanks up to 80 L. Step up to the CF800 (850 L/h, to 90 L, three media layers), the CF1200 (1200 L/h, to 110 L) or the CF2400 (3000 L/h, to 500 L) as tank size increases.

Safety

• Disconnect from the mains before opening the canister or servicing the unit.
• Never run the filter dry. Confirm the canister is primed and full before switching on.
• Do not look directly at the UV lamp while it is lit.
• For indoor aquarium use only.
