Interzoo 2008: Nurnberg



I begin my Interzoo with description of Elos stand and Elos products, where I spent a lot of my time, and where I’ve improved my knowledge of their equipments. The 2008 news were many and amazing… let’s go!
--> Elos 간판이 걸려 있는 전경의 모습



One of the most amazing products was, without doubt, the new MiniReef, amazing, wonderful, with new E-Lite lamp, as natural add-on of this incredible object. The style wins… as always for Elos.

MiniReef has the following measures: 43×43x40 cm and furniture is 87 cm high. The front glass is extra clear in normal version, but in “de luxe” version you have all extra clear glasses.

With it you buy new sump 100, with new skimmer NS100 and E-Lite lamp. You have also 2 Eheim compact 1000 pumps.

As natural I show you the spare parts of MiniReef, as they’re presented stand alone too:.

The sump 100M with dimensions 36×30x40 cm and 11 litres of reservoir with skimmer Natural Skimmer NS1000.
--> Elos는 어항뿐 아니라 그 안에 들어가 있는 장비들까지 모두 제작하여 판매하는 곳으로 생각이 된다.
지금 보는 것은 미니리프로 E-lite 램프가 들어가 잇는 43x43x40 사이즈의 큐브형 어항이다.
(다이는 87cm), 앞유리는 일반버전에서는 좀 더 깨끗한 유리를 썼고 디럭스는 전면을 이 유리로 사용했다. 스키머는 NS100으로 에하임 컴팩트 1000 펌프 2개가 들어간다
Elos의 어항을 몇개 보았는데 장비를 포함하여 모두 깔끔하고 잘 만들었다는 느낌이 강하게 든다.
내가 미국에 살고 있었다면 꼭 구입을 해보았을 것이다.



As said, the pump with this skimmer (but also with this sump), is the Eheim compact 1000, skimmer dimensions are 10×10x47h with diameter of 80 mm. Elos give it for 24-40 gallons. As always is a top downdirect injection.
--> 위의 나노형 어항에 들어가는 에하임 컴팩트 1000을 연결하는 스키머이다. 깔끔하게 잘 만들어졌다.(10x 10 x 47h 80 mm지름)


The E-Lite led lamp have 18 leds, that at moment have the power of 80 lumen for watt, but we wait for 100 lumen for watt for the end of the year. It have active ventilation system, so in front of water is cold, and over is hot.
--> Elos는 이곳에서 E-lite라고 하는 18개의 LED를 내장한 램프를 선보이고 있다. 와트당 80루맨정도가  나오지만 올해말에 100루멘정도 나오는 LED가 나올 것이다. 또한 뜨거운 열을 내보내어 수온상승을 막기 위해 ventilation system이 내장되어 있다.


Some shoots here:



After the MiniReef I like new circular reflector lamps, Elos E-Power, sure for style but also for the power they promise us.



I was been a particularly lucky man :-) because I have had the opportunity to measure lumen between this reflector with 150 watts HQi and one lumenarc with 400 watts HQi… I didn’t believe to measurements, 150 watts HQi had almost the same lumen of 400 watts HQi, and more at the edge! I don’t know how this measure is important for our corals… but sure, the E-Power is a great reflector!

These reflectors are presented with 150 watts HQi and also with 250 watts HQi. Everyone has external ballast, and you can use instead of lumenarcs, but with more appeals :-)
-->위로 보이는 리플렉터는 스타일리쉬하고 특이하게 생겼는데 이 150와트 HQI에 나오는 빛의 양이
루메나크 400와트에서 나오는 양과 거의 비슷하다고 한다. 끝부분은 더 나온다는....
정확한 수치가 아닐 수도 있겠지만 리플렉터가 갈수록 좋아지고 있는 추세이기 때문에 한번 시험해 볼만하다. (다시 수치를 재 볼 것이라고 한다.)


Another great news was the presentation of multi-parameter colorimeter, that you can buy as stand-alone version and biotopus II add-on. Here you see the stand-alone version. :-)



With this colorimeter you can measure nitrates, phosphates, nitrites, pH and ammonium. Actually only nitrates and phosphates are validated, all the others will validate during this year.

-->Elos에서 새로 선보이고 있는 컬러리미터로 질산염,인산염,아질산, PH 암모늄을 수치로 나타내준다. 이거 하나 있으면 굉장히 편할 것이라 생각이 되는데 지금은 질산염과 인삼염 수치가 검증이 된 상태이고 나머지는 올해안에 이루어질 것이라 한다. 요거도 탐나는 물건임.


The measure technique is brilliant and simple at the same time (is it so clear that I like it?), you have to measure the “color” of the water and put it as “zero” of the system, than you have to add reagent(s) that you find on Elos test kits as normal protocol to do test, and after that, you put vial inside colorimeter. The colorimeter, in a very short amount of time, give us only one number, water absorption, that we put in the following chart, so we have the correct values. The force of this equipment is the multi-parameter options and that every test kits will be sold with his right chart, so we’ll have always the right calibration. :-)

Elos has said that we’ll have all charts of pH, nitrites and ammonium before the end of the year.

For Biotopus II we have had other news



As said we have had colorimeter module, that in picture you can see at the right of Biotopus, and it consists only in colorimeter without electronic control, as you can use your Biotopus. Then we have seen the new density probe and new rescue module (to help us on lack of electrical energy).

The test kits are also improved, Ca, Mg and Kh Tesk kits have now high resolution



For calcium test kits we have now 10ppm of resolution, when we had 25 ppm, for KH we have now 0,5 dKH opposite to old 1 dKH, and magnesium has now 50 ppm instead of 100 ppm.

--> 칼슘 테스트 킷은 25에서 10으로, KH는 1에서 0.5, 마그네슘은 100에서 50으로 좀 더 정확해졌다.

Moreover Elos has presented us 3 new skimmers, the NS 100 (just seen before), the NS 2000 and the NS 8000.



The new skimmers are different for white finishes instead of black. The NS 2000, that you see on picture, use the same pump of NS 1000, the Eheim 1260 with normal impeller, and works as usual as top down direct injection, right for 260-530 gallons tank. The body has the following measures 201×17x55,5 cm with outside cylinder of 15 cm and inner one of 12 cm. Elos ha changed also the drainage with new type, so you can have more air in the entrance, for every his skimmers.



Over here you can see the new NS 8000, it can works until 4 Eheim 1260, always Top-Down direct injection, right for 1050-2100 gallons tank. Dimensions are 25×21x85h cm and diameters 20 and 18 cm.

Here you can see new drainage system:



Elos has presented one new calcium reactor, the REA 200, suitable for 1050 gallons tank.



Calcium reactors and skimmers together:



Moreover one new osmocontroller with smaller central unit, and new dimension for tank… now we had 70×57x50h, 120×57x50h and 160×57x60h instead of old 50 cm.
