AQUARIUM SIZE 30-85 GALLONS

Deltec have been a market leader in specialist marine equipment for over 25 years.

These new internal protein skimmers continue their long history of German hand built, high efficiency protein skimmers. They have used their experience to introduce many innovations in skimmer technology over the years, pushing the boundaries of performance and efficiency.

This new range of sump mounted protein skimmers offer a neat compact design containing numerous features, including toolless disassembly, making them easy to use and maintain. They also include a unique safety feature that automatically shuts off the air input if the water level inside the skimmer rises, preventing the skimmer cup from flooding.

The footplate design offers a new approach to water flow inside the skimmer giving better contact time between the air/water mixture without increasing the overall height of the skimmer. This also reduces the chance of micro bubbles escaping into the aquarium and reduces turbulence in the body. Combined with the classic cylinder body the Deltec internal skimmers maximize performance.

• Highly efficient cylinder shape
• Emergency overflow with water level indicator
• Hollow footplate design
• Extremely low power consumption
• Whisper quiet operation
• Micro water level adjuster
• Toolless maintenance
• Interchangeable overflow and regulator pipes
• Quick and easy pump removal
• Pump feed / pause button
• Hand built in Germany

Thanks to the ergonomic cylinder body shape, the Deltec 400i protein skimmer ensures the best skimming results.

The shape of the skimmer does not taper or narrow towards the top. This results in the small air bubbles being able to rise unhindered, allowing them to become fully saturated with organics, only bursting in the riser tube inside the collection cup.

This body design also allows for the footprint of the protein skimmer to be as compact as possible allowing it to be neatly installed in most sumps.

Due to waste accumulation and calcium carbonate build up protein skimmers need to be cleaned periodically to maintain peak performance.

Deltec have incorporated a quick toolless system for dismantling the skimmer and removing the pump. In tests Deltec have been able to remove a pump for cleaning in less than 20 seconds.

The skimmer body can be fully dismantled easily and quickly to allow for easy maintenance, less time spent maintaining equipment and more time to enjoy your aquarium.
