Explore unprecedented possibilities in aquarium control while protecting your investment. Neptune Systems AquaController Apex Energy Bar Expansion Module features an innovative and highly expandable design to power the AquaController Apex Base Unit, Apex Display and Apex Accessories. Independently controllable outlets PLUS built-in AquaBus Connection ports allow easy addition and control of numerous aquarium accessories. Multiple EnergyBars can be daisy chained together for HUNDREDS of controllable outlets at your command!

Neptune Systems AquaController Apex Energy Bar Expansion Module boasts numerous safety features including a programmable failsafe state. Configure each Energy Bar outlet to be either in an OFF or ON state to address power failure or communication failure with the Apex base unit according to your preference. Soft-Start feature slowly brings pumps, wavemakers and other aquarium equipment to full power to prevent harsh and damaging ON/OFF cycles. Built-in sensor monitors overall power consumption and continually sends this information to your Apex controller for invaluable power utilization data. Quality 16 gauge, powder-coated aluminum construction.

Use Neptune Systems AquaController Apex Energy Bar Expansion Module with your existing Apex Jr Kit, or Apex Kit to automate more aquarium functions. Use an additional Energy Bar on a UPS (uninterruptible power supply) for a lifesaving alternate power source!
