Deltec's new and innovative SC series (single chamber) with skimmers featuring Deltec's brand new high performance pump with class-leading energy-to-air ratio (ETA).

Suitable for aquariums up to 2400 lts (530 British gallons).

For over 20 years, Deltec GMBH has worked hard to develop the best specialized marine aquarium equipment available on the market and are known worldwide for the high performance and quality of their protein skimmers. When their patent on the Deltec Pinwheel ran out, it opened the market for other people to copy their ideas and produce pinwheels themselves, but without the more than 20 years of experience and development put into the Deltec products.

The next generation of Deltec protein skimmers will be on the market soon, and this time Deltec has developed its own pump design and spent months getting the right amount of air for the lowest possible power consumption. This allowed Deltec to set new standards in efficiency and to illustrate the difference, they introduced a new terminology, ETA Ratio (energy-air ratio), to compare Deltec products with others. The new products have an ETA ratio of approximately 60: 1 and can produce 1500 lts of air per hour while consuming only 25 W of power. Compare this to current Deltec-modified Eheim pumps (which are already known for their performance), which produce only 600 lts of air for 36 W of power and you will understand why we are so excited.

The SC name describes the special single chamber design of the bubble chamber, which is patented and has the advantage of pressurizing the pumps for better performance and ensuring that only raw water flows through the pump instead of the refinishing and reprocessing water in the room.

The new bubble plate design allows the height of the protein skimmers to be reduced compared to the current range to fit a wider range of installations and cabinets. The main use of the bubble chamber is to prevent turbulence from the skimmer body and neck, since turbulence can draw waste-laden bubbles back into the water column, reducing efficiency. The air / water ratio is so high that it reacts almost immediately with the waste, therefore no high reaction chambers are required on some low-air protein skimmers, keeping the units compact.
