HYDROS Kraken 24V Power Center

The Ultimate Aquarium Power Manager for System-Critical Equipment – Available at Reef Supplies Canada

The HYDROS Kraken is the next-generation powerhouse for serious reef keepers—a hybrid controller and high-capacity energy center engineered to replace the clutter of multiple 24V DC power bricks. With eight (8) individually controlled Force Ports built directly into the HYDROS controller, the Kraken delivers unmatched reliability for system-critical aquarium equipment such as flow pumps, return pumps, protein skimmer pumps, and LED lighting.

Designed with safety and performance at the forefront, the Kraken includes an industrial-grade external Mean Well power supply offering 20 amps / 480 watts of clean, stable power. It is built to meet ETL/UL certification standards and uses isolated internal power circuitry for silent, fan-free operation. Each Force Port also features individual power monitoring, allowing hobbyists to track consumption and receive alerts for over- or under-current conditions.

Beyond its powerful Force Ports, the HYDROS Kraken provides four 12V Drive Ports ideal for cabinet lighting, ATO pumps, solenoids, and other auxiliary equipment. This design dramatically reduces cable clutter while offering exceptional versatility.

As a full HYDROS system controller, the Kraken is capable of making smart, automated decisions based on temperature, flow rate, and other HYDROS sensor data. Two Command Bus Ports enable seamless integration into any HYDROS Collective, creating a fully redundant, failsafe reef-keeping ecosystem. You can monitor and control your Kraken from anywhere through the intuitive HYDROS cloud-based app, and wirelessly manage up to eight HYDROS WiFi devices.

For reef aquarists seeking performance, safety, and long-term reliability, the HYDROS Kraken—available at Reef Supplies Canada—is the ultimate all-in-one power and control solution.
