The new Unkai Protein Skimmer Neck Cleaner is the first design innovation we’ve seen in this product category in quite a number of years. Way back in 2010 Deltec introduced themanual neck cleanerwhich was integrated into the lid of their skimmer, and this space has been fallow ever since.
Perfect Reef Systems, also known as PRS Japan has a history of really thinking outside the box with thefirst flow meter on the market,Automatic Zeovit reactorand more recently with their beast of a skimmer, the hyper-engineeredUnkai protein skimmer．不满足任何旧的脖子清洁政治组织us on their masterpiece, PRS Japan developed the Unkai Spiral Neck Cleaner.
As the name implies, instead of using squeegee blades to simply wipe down skimmate from the neck of the protein skimmer, PRS developed a 3D squeegee with a helical shape. When spinning in the right direction the angled, spiral wiper blades help to keep the neck clean,andto bring up the wastes into the skimmer cup.

So far it seems that the spiral neck cleaner is only designed for use with the Unkai protein skimmer but hopefully we can see this innovation become compatible with many more protein skimmer models.
