Eheim External Filter Professionel 3, 1200 XL

The EHEIM professional 3 1200 is an energy-efficient external filter.

With the EHEIM professionel 3 you rely on the crown jewel of filter technology in top quality with all comfort and top-class relatives!
Regardless of whether you choose one of the smaller or the large XL filters, you will find it difficult to find a better external filter. The EHEIM professionel 3 means the highest quality, strong performance, exemplary energy efficiency, wonderful smoothness and a lot of comfort. The large pre-filter and the safety hose adapter are just a few of your advantages.

The square basic shape ensures a large filter volume with high stability and has a high, adjustable flow rate with low consumption. The built-in high-performance ceramic in the pump drive allows a whisper-quiet run and an extremely long service life. The suction aid makes it easier for you to fill the filter system quickly and the safety hose adapter can only be removed when the valves are closed. The very large pre-filter holds back coarse dirt and thereby extends the service life of the biological filter material; it is easy to remove and easy to clean.

Special advantages of the professionel 3 1200:

• The first filter with a triple hose adapter (2x suction side, 1x pressure side) for perfect water circulation in large aquariums
• Flow indicator - informs when the filter should be cleaned
• Transport rollers - make the filter manoeuvrable by tilting it slightly
• Pre-filter pan - for the drip-free transport of the pre-filter during cleaning

You can wash out the filter media a few times, but you should replace it approximately twice a year to maintain consistently good water quality.
