Colorite Aerotube diffuser tubing provides effective diffused aeration at a low cost due to its high porosity and low pressure loss.

• Standard bubble size of 1-3mm in freshwater
• Bubble size approx 1mm in saltwater
• 61gm’s of oxygen in freshwater and 151gm’s in saltwater per meter per hour at a depth of 1 meter.
• 37lpm of air flow per meter of tube to operate
• Can be run by lower pressure high output compressors or air blowers
• 2.7kg’s to 3.6kg’s of oxygen per horsepower in freshwater
• Up to 6.8kg’s of oxygen per horsepower in saltwater.
• Higher oxygen transfer at greater water depth

Why is Colorite Aerotube diffuser tubing so good? Compared to paddle wheels at only 0.8-1.4kg’s of oxygen per horsepower this represents significant increases in efficiency for aeration systems.

Features:

– Anti fouling properties

– Mixing and circulation of bottom water creating both horizontal and vertical mixing throughout the pond

– De-stratification, equalizing temperature and dissolved oxygen

– Oxygenation of bottom sediment in ponds due to high volume mixing

– Directional flow in tanks and ponds with the use of airlifts and directional plates

– Low energy costs compared to other aeration technologies

– Reusable and long lifespan, easily cleaned

– Available in a variety of configurations such as prefabricated diffusers, per meter, in grids and pre fabricated airlifts and diffuser rings

– 3rd party validated oxygen transfer rate, OTE%’s and quality construction

 

Applications:

– Small and Large volume airlifts for recirculating aquaculture systems

– Airlifts and complete aeration systems for aquaculture ponds

– In tank aeration and degassing

– Aeration systems for recirculating aquaculture systems

– Water storage aeration

– Live seafood system aeration

– Wastewater and remediation pond aeration

– Biofloc
