Description

Transform your existing NYOS Quantum® skimmer into a smart, autonomous, and fully controllable device. This upgrade kit integrates seamlessly with Mobius™ (Ecotech Marine) and Apex Fusion (Neptune Systems) apps, giving you complete wireless control over your skimmer's performance, advanced safety features, and enhanced energy efficiency.

Upgrade your protein skimmer to the next level with the NYOS Quantum® EQ Upgrade Kit. This kit is designed for owners of existing NYOS Quantum® 160, 220, or 300 skimmers, allowing you to unlock all the intelligent features of the new EQ series without replacing your entire unit.

Gain full command of your skimmer's operation directly from your smartphone. This kit provides complete integration with the Mobius™ app (used by Ecotech Marine and Aquaillumination) and Apex Fusion (by Neptune Systems), allowing you to fine-tune performance, set schedules, and synchronize your skimmer with your other connected aquarium equipment.

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Full App Integration: Wirelessly control your skimmer via the Mobius™ or Apex Fusion apps. Adjust pump speed, activate modes, and monitor performance from your iOS or Android device.

  • Precise Performance Control: Enjoy infinitely variable pump speed adjustment from 1% to 100%. Set different speeds for various times of the day (Schedules) to perfectly match your tank's needs, such as feeding times or day/night cycles.

  • Smart Predefined Modes: Simplify operation with preset modes in the Mobius™ app:

    • Performance Mode: A baseline 70% power setting that allows for easy fine-tuning.

    • Plankton Saving Mode: Automatically reduces pump speed at night to protect valuable nocturnal microfauna and plankton.

    • Nutrient Export Reduction Mode: Lowers skimmer performance if your system's nutrients become too low, preventing instability.

  • Energy-Efficient 24V Pump: The heart of the upgrade is a new, energy-saving 24V low-voltage pump, manufactured in Europe. Its intelligent control system consumes up to 20% less power while being 10% more powerful than the standard, non-adjustable Quantum® pump.

  • Advanced Safety Features: The smart pump can detect a blockage (like a snail). It will automatically stop, attempt to clear the obstruction, and then restart. If the blockage persists, the pump shuts down safely, flashes a red alert, and notifies you via the app.

  • RGB LED Indicator: A clever multi-colored LED light is integrated into the skimmer, providing an at-a-glance visual cue of the pump's current speed. It also conveniently doubles as a flashlight for maintenance inside your aquarium cabinet.

  • Easy Installation: Transform your existing skimmer into a smart device without any complicated modifications or housing changes.
