Anybody know anything about this UV sterilizer?

It's a Clearwater Tech UV 10. It has to be over 10 years old. Maybe 12. I got it from my brother when he gave me a bunch of his old equipment. I'm thinking about firing it up on my 55-gallon reef. I've looked into UV a bit and I figure it can't hurt. It's just sitting here otherwise.

I can't find anything about it from Google. I'm sure it needs a new bulb since it's so old.

Are the bulbs on these things proprietary, or can you use the same bulbs on different models? I can get some more info on it if necessary.
