The Matala Stainless Steel UV Clarifier is the professional solution for green, cloudy pond water. It attacks algae blooms at the source.

It runs water past a high-output UV lamp that scrambles algae cells before they can multiply. Pond owners call it the "silver bullet" for water.

Results typically appear within days. Unlike chemical flocculants, it works continuously. There is no dosing and no risk to your water chemistry.

How the Matala Stainless Steel UV Clarifier Works

Single-celled algae reproduce quickly in warm sunlight and excess nutrients. This unit does not remove algae directly; it uses ultraviolet light.

This light damages the DNA of the algae, stopping reproduction. Once neutralized, your filter and skimmer catch the dead cells for easy removal.

The polished stainless steel body reflects UV light back through the water. This design provides roughly 30% more exposure than plastic housings.

Key Features and Benefits

This inline unit plumbs directly into your pump line. It offers several advantages over a standard jebao stainless steel uv sterilizer unit.

Polished Stainless Steel Reactor Chamber

The mirror-finished interior bounces UV light back toward the water. This boosts the kill rate without needing any additional lamp wattage.

High-Output Lamp and Quartz Sleeve

The lamp is matched to hold a steady 254nm output. This specific wavelength is most effective against algae and harmful pond water pathogens.

Single Big-Bore Body

The wide-diameter chamber ensures water passes through with almost no resistance. Your pump does not have to work harder to move your water.

Visual LED Service Indicator

An LED tells you when the lamp output drops. This removes the guesswork found with a jebao stainless steel uv sterilizer or other basic models.

Every unit includes a 17-foot power cord and inline transformer. Upkeep is simple, requiring only an annual lamp swap and a quartz sleeve check.

Choose the Right Wattage for Your Pond

Picking the correct size is vital for fast results. Undersizing the unit for your pond volume is the most common reason for poor performance.

Model Max Pond Size (Gal.) Inlet/Outlet Max Flow (GPH) Cord Length
SS-L40WU 6,000 2" MPT 3,500 17'
SS-L75WU 11,500 2" MPT 5,700 17'
SS-L150WU 13,000 2" MPT 6,500 17'
SS-L300WU 30,000 3" MPT 17,000 17'

The 40W and 75W models use one lamp. The 150W version pairs two 75W lamps, while the 300W version runs four. Keep flow close to the max GPH.

Warranty Coverage

The housing and transformer have a one-year limited warranty against defects. The UV lamp and quartz sleeve are wear items and are not covered.
