Fluval Bulb & Gasket for FX UVC In-Line Clarifier – Genuine Replacement Parts for Reliable UV Filtration
The Fluval Bulb & Gasket Set is the official replacement kit for the Fluval FX UVC In-Line Clarifier. Designed to restore your system’s sterilization efficiency, this kit includes a 6W ultraviolet bulb and matching gasket for a perfect, leak-proof fit.
Fluval’s innovative LFCF (Longer Fluval Cooling Flow) technology allows the bulb to run at cooler operating temperatures, extending its lifespan up to three times longer than standard UV lamps.
