Prefilter
Capacious 0,4 gal prefilter built into the cover of the device effectively retains large impurities, which significantly reduces the frequency of servicing the filter. Cleaning the prefilter itself is very simple and does not even require removing the device from the cabinet. Just lift the lid, remove the sponge from the basket and rinse it under running water.
Double ball valve system
Aquarists know that a critical stage of work that requires access to the interior of the filter is usually the disconnection of the inlet and outlet hoses from the device. The remaining water in the filter usually spills out onto the floor, which causes justifiable irritation. To avoid this, the Hypermax uses a patented system of double ball valves. They simultaneously close the filter’s inlet and outlet in the lid and the lumen of the hoses and block the uncontrolled escape of water.
Self-priming system
All you need to do is make 2 to 4 movements of the plunger and you’re done. The filter will be primed with aquarium water. Simple?
