RISSEE
SCARAB
Dual-chamber high-pressure air pumps engineered to hold flow where standard pumps quit. Eight models across 240V AC and 12V DC line-ups — from 10 to 80 LPM, every one rated to 2.5 metres of depth.
Why Professionals Choose SCARAB
Most air pumps are built for shallow tanks and easy runs. The SCARAB is built for real systems — deep water, long lines, and fine-pore diffusers that punish underpowered pumps.
Dual-Chamber Wings
Two chambers, double the exhaust pressure. Internal dual-motor air chambers deliver larger air displacement and double the pressure — without increasing power consumption.
Built for Depth
2.5 metres, every model. Standard pumps lose flow the deeper they push. The SCARAB maintains torque and pressure, so oxygen delivery stays constant in deep-water environments.
AC or DC — Your Call
One series, two power worlds. 240V AC models for permanent mains installations, or a comprehensive 12V DC line-up for transport, emergency backup, and solar applications.
Engineered for Pressure
Every SCARAB packs the same high-pressure DNA — from the 10 LPM DC-10 to the 80 LPM DC-80. No stripped-down entry models, no compromise components.
Dual-Chamber Displacement
Double the exhaust pressure. Twin motor-driven air chambers maximise displacement and efficiency without extra power draw.
Uniform 2.5m Depth Rating
Depth is not an upgrade. Every model in the series operates effectively at depths up to 2.5 metres.
Adjustable Output
Dial in your airflow. An inline control dial (on applicable models) lets you calibrate output to your system's exact requirements.
Aluminum Alloy Housing
Built to run cool. A thick aluminum alloy shell delivers optimal heat dissipation and long service life.
Under 50dB Operation
Quiet enough for any room. Acoustic dampening keeps noise below 50dB — no more humming through the fish room wall.
Brass Outlet + Manifold
Distribution sorted. Every pump ships with a brass outlet and multi-outlet plastic manifold for easy air splitting.
Vibration-Relieving Feet
Stable and silent. Rubber feet decouple the pump from your bench or shelf, killing vibration transfer and rattle.
Compact Industrial Design
Small footprint, serious output. The signature winged chassis fits tight installs while moving up to 80 LPM.
Find the Right Model for Your System
Eight models, one depth rating. Pick your power source first — 240V AC for permanent installs, 12V DC for mobile, backup and solar — then match flow rate to your system volume and diffuser load.
| Model | Type | Power | Flow Rate | Max Pressure | Dimensions (L×W×H) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AP-20A | 240V AC | 10W | 18 LPM | 2.5m | 12.2 × 14.4 × 7.1 cm |
| AP-30A | 240V AC | 18W | 30 LPM | 2.5m | 13.0 × 13.3 × 8.5 cm |
| AP-50A | 240V AC | 25W | 54 LPM | 2.5m | 17.1 × 15.0 × 9.1 cm |
| DC-10 | 12V DC | 5W | 10 LPM | 2.5m | 10.6 × 12.5 × 6.3 cm |
| DC-18 | 12V DC | 10W | 18 LPM | 2.5m | 12.2 × 14.4 × 7.1 cm |
| DC-30 | 12V DC | 18W | 30 LPM | 2.5m | 13.0 × 13.3 × 8.5 cm |
| DC-50 | 12V DC | 25W | 54 LPM | 2.5m | 17.1 × 14.8 × 9.1 cm |
| DC-80 | 12V DC | 40W | 80 LPM | 2.5m | 19.8 × 16.7 × 10.6 cm |
All models rated to 2.5m maximum pressure. Inline output control dial included on applicable models. Always size for total system back-pressure — diffuser pore resistance plus line losses.
AC or DC — Match the Power to the Job
The SCARAB range splits into two complete line-ups sharing the same dual-chamber, depth-rated platform. Choose the power world that fits your installation.
240V AC Line-Up
AP-20A, AP-30A, AP-50A. Mains-powered models for permanent hatchery, aquarium, and pond installations. Plug in and forget.
12V DC Line-Up
DC-10 through DC-80. Battery-voltage models built for transport, live-haul tanks, and off-grid locations.
Solar & Backup Ready
Keep air flowing when the grid fails. DC models run straight from a 12V battery bank or solar system — ideal emergency aeration.
Adjustable Output
Calibrate on the fly. Applicable models include an inline control dial for precision airflow management across the output range.
Build the Full Air System
A great pump deserves a great delivery system. Pair your SCARAB with the right diffusers, tubing, and protection to get the most from every litre of air.
Air Diffusers & Air Stones
Fine-pore performance. The SCARAB's 2.5m pressure rating drives high-resistance fine-pore diffusers that starve standard pumps. View Range →
Airline Tubing
Rated for the run. Match your line to the pump — we stock airline sized for every SCARAB flow rate and run length. View Range →
Check Valves
Protect your pump. A check valve stops back-siphoning during power cuts — essential insurance for any below-tank installation. View Range →
Backup DC Air Pumps
Redundancy when it matters. Pair an AC SCARAB with a DC model on a battery for backup aeration during outages. View Range →
Everything in the Box
Every SCARAB ships ready to plumb in — no extra fittings run required before your first start-up.
Brass Outlet
Durable, threaded, ready. A machined brass outlet stands up to years of fitting cycles — no plastic snap-fittings at the pump.
Multi-Outlet Manifold
Split your air with ease. The included multi-outlet plastic manifold distributes airflow across several tanks or diffusers from one pump.
Rubber Vibration Feet
Fitted and damping. Vibration-relieving rubber feet come pre-fitted for stable, quiet operation straight out of the box.
Inline Control Dial
On applicable models. Where fitted, the inline dial gives precision airflow management without touching the plumbing.
Take It to the Next Level
Thinking beyond a single pump? These are the moves serious aeration systems are built on.
Step Up in Flow
Room to grow. Moving from an AP-20A to an AP-50A — or DC-30 to DC-80 — more than doubles your airflow while keeping the same 2.5m depth rating.
AC + DC Redundancy
Never lose aeration. Run an AC model as your workhorse and a DC SCARAB on a charged battery as backup for power cuts and transport.
Go Full Solar
Off-grid aeration. The DC line-up runs directly from 12V solar systems — pair with a battery bank for 24/7 aeration far from any outlet.
