Air Pump AK-20 (1200 L/H)

Air pump for irrigation tanks AK-20 (1200 L/H)

The AK-20 Air Pump (1200 L/H) is designed for hydroponics and aquaponics installations that require constant aeration in medium and large tanks.

The membrane block optimizes performance with reduced consumption , and the revised versions achieve up to 33% less electricity consumption compared to previous generations.

The compact, damped chassis minimizes vibrations, while the internal dual-chamber absorption system contributes to quiet operation in grow rooms. The 1200 L/h flow rate feeds multiple bubbler lines and reoxygenation columns, maintaining a homogeneous solution in EC and pH.

Air distribution can be achieved using manifolds and irrigation accessories such as diffuser stones , non-return valves and stopcocks, achieving uniform coverage in tanks, flood tables and DWC/RDWC systems.

Maintenance is limited to cleaning diffusers and periodically checking membranes, ensuring a stable flow rate for extended periods. With its efficient, quiet, and robust design, this pump is a perfect fit for any online grow shop seeking reliable solutions for continuous oxygenation.

Indoor Growing AK-20 Air Pump (1200 L/H)

In indoor cultivation , the addition of microbubbles promotes active root development and prevents anaerobic conditions. The flow rate of 1200 L/h maintains adequate dissolved oxygen in standard working reservoirs, preventing stratification and helping to stabilize nutrient solution parameters. The result is a more dynamic root response and consistent nutrient uptake throughout the growing cycle.

What is the AK-20 Air Pump (1200 L/H) used for?

It is used to oxygenate nutrient solution tanks , propel air columns, and supply multiple diffuser lines in recirculation systems. It is also useful during solution transfers and resting periods, reducing unpleasant odors associated with areas of low gas exchange. In combination with a water pump, it creates an integrated circuit where nutrient and irrigation of indoor plants is complemented by continuous oxygenation.

Accessories for indoor growing irrigation AK-20 Air Pump (1200 L/H)

To get the most out of it, it's advisable to integrate:

• Diffuser stones of 50–100 mm for fine microbubbles.
• Non-return valves that prevent water from flowing back to the pump.
• Multi-way manifolds to distribute air between different tanks or zones.
• Silicone tubing compatible with outlet nozzles.
• Stopcocks to balance flow rates between lines.
• Timers if you want to automate ventilation windows.

With these irrigation accessories , it is easy to adjust coverage and flow rate, keeping the solution alive and well oxygenated within the irrigation system .

How do I use the AK-20 Air Pump (1200 L/H)?

1) Place the unit on a stable surface, elevated above the water level to prevent gravity backflow.
2) Connect the outlets to a manifold or directly to diffuser stones ; install non-return valves on each line.
3) Distribute the diffusers at the bottom of the tank for homogeneous coverage, away from walls and corners.
4) Turn on and check for uniform bubbling; balance with stopcocks until the same intensity is achieved in all lines.
5) Perform periodic cleaning of diffusers and membrane inspection to maintain the flow rate of 1200 L/h within optimal parameters.

This procedure improves oxygenation, reduces biofilm risks, and helps maintain EC and pH stability before and during each irrigation cycle.

Price of AK-20 Air Pump (1200 L/H)

The price may vary depending on promotions and available packages. It's common to find kits that include diffuser stones , non-return valves , and silicone tubing—a practical option to complete your irrigation accessory set from day one.
