RED SEA - ReefControl Pro - Advanced reef controller for up to 7 ReefSense transducers - R35813EUR-T

ReefControl Pro: the advanced control center for reef aquariums

The ReefControl Pro is designed for aquarists who want to go beyond simply monitoring pH and temperature. It allows you to group several probes, sensors, and devices within a single system to build a connected setup capable of continuously monitoring various parameters.

Thanks to its universal ReefSense ports, the controller can accept various types of probes and digital sensors. This allows the user to precisely tailor the system to their aquarium's needs and monitor only the parameters that are truly relevant.

This architecture makes the ReefControl Pro particularly interesting for advanced reef installations, where monitoring multiple parameters and automating different equipment become essential to maintain good stability.

Four ReefSense ports included, expandable up to seven sensors

The ReefControl Pro comes with connectivity options for up to four ReefSense probes or sensors . The included pH + temperature probe occupies one of these slots, immediately freeing up several ports for comprehensive tank monitoring.

Thanks to a compatible extension, the system can be expanded to include up to seven ReefSense measurement tools . This scalability allows you to start with a few essential parameters and then gradually add more as needed for your aquarium.

The controller thus becomes a durable basis for an installation that can evolve without having to replace the entire management system.

ReefSense pH and temperature probe included

The kit includes a ReefSense combined pH + temperature probe , allowing immediate monitoring of two essential parameters of the reef aquarium.

pH plays a crucial role in the chemical balance of water, while temperature directly influences the metabolism of fish, corals, and invertebrates. Continuous monitoring of these parameters allows for the rapid identification of any unusual drift or variation.

The measured information is transmitted to the ReefControl Pro and then accessible in the ReefBeat application, allowing you to view the values without having to take a manual measurement at each check.

Compatible with pH, temperature, salinity, ORP, ATO and leak detection probes

The ReefControl Pro can accommodate various ReefSense sensors and probes to create a configuration adapted to the actual operation of the installation.

Depending on the needs, it can be combined with:

• pH probes ;
• temperature probes ;
• salinity probes ;
• ORP probes for monitoring redox potential;
• ATO modules for evaporation management;
• leak detectors .

This flexibility allows for the construction of monitoring that is truly adapted to the tank, without imposing a fixed combination of parameters.

Two 12V outputs for directly controlling equipment

The ReefControl Pro has two 12V DC outputs that can be used to directly control certain compatible low voltage equipment.

One output can, for example, be dedicated to a cooling fan, while the second can control a small pump, a solenoid valve, or another suitable device. The commands can be linked to information from the sensors to automate certain reactions.

This dual output provides more flexibility than a simpler configuration and allows for the simultaneous management of several actions related to the tank parameters.

Automation based on ReefSense metrics

The ReefControl Pro's usefulness extends beyond simply displaying values. The information gathered by the probes can be used to automatically trigger certain actions .

A temperature variation can, for example, be used to activate a fan, while another sensor can be associated with a pump, a solenoid valve, or compatible equipment connected to an output of the controller.

This approach transforms the probes into true control elements for the system. The aquarium can thus react automatically to certain situations defined by the user instead of relying solely on manual intervention.

Dedicated connection to the RED SEA ReefControl Power

The ReefControl Pro also has a dedicated port for ReefControl Power . This connection allows you to extend automation capabilities to mains-powered equipment.

The ReefControl Power can then manage its outlets based on information transmitted by the probes and sensors connected to the ReefControl Pro. It becomes possible to automate a heater, cooling system, pump, skimmer, or other compatible electrical devices.

The combination of the two modules thus makes it possible to build a global management system capable of monitoring several parameters and acting directly on the aquarium equipment.

24/7 monitoring and alerts via ReefBeat

The ReefControl Pro is fully integrated with the ReefBeat app . Data from the sensors can be viewed from a smartphone or tablet, allowing you to monitor parameter changes remotely.

This continuous monitoring provides a much more comprehensive view of the tank's operation than a series of one-off measurements. Trends become easier to identify, and unusual variations can be detected quickly.

The system can also send alerts when certain values fall outside defined ranges , in order to immediately draw attention to a situation requiring verification.

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity with ReefBeat

The controller uses a Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connection for setup and integration into the ReefBeat ecosystem. Once installed, settings, data, and adjustments remain accessible via the compatible iOS and Android app.

This centralized management system eliminates the need for multiple screens and independent controllers around the aquarium. Measurements and automated functions are grouped into a single interface, simplifying the reading and maintenance of the system.

A scalable ReefControl installation

The ReefControl Pro is particularly appealing to aquarists who want to gradually build a more comprehensive setup. With four ReefSense ports available out of the box and expandable capacity up to seven , it offers ample room for future upgrades.

An aquarium can therefore start with the pH + temperature probe included, and then later receive a salinity probe, an ORP probe, an ATO sensor or even a leak detector.

The ReefControl Power can then be added to automate mains-powered equipment, gradually transforming the system into a true reef control platform.

A controller adapted to complex reef installations

With its ability to manage multiple probes simultaneously and its two 12V outputs, the ReefControl Pro is particularly suited to aquariums where several parameters need to be monitored continuously.

It meets the needs of both a medium-sized, heavily equipped reef tank and a larger installation requiring more sensors and automation.

Its main advantage lies in its ability to centralize measurements and actions within a single ecosystem, rather than using several independent devices each operating on their own.

ReefSense digital technology for consistent monitoring

The ReefSense sensors and probes used with the ReefControl Pro communicate digitally with the controller. This architecture is particularly well-suited to reef environments where numerous electrical devices operate simultaneously.

Each type of probe uses a common interface with the ReefSense ports , which allows for free organization of the controller configuration and combination of several parameters as needed.

This technology also contributes to the scalability of the system by allowing the addition of different compatible sensors without having to change the control platform.

Adjustable probe holder included with the ReefControl Pro

The kit also includes a height-adjustable probe holder . This allows the probe to be correctly positioned in the chosen measurement area, usually in the settling tank or a compartment where water circulates regularly.

The stable support of the probes facilitates their daily use and prevents them from moving or ending up in an unsuitable position.

The support also makes their removal easier during cleaning, inspection or calibration operations.
