Jet Aerator
A jet build of the self priming aerator, pushing an air and water stream out across the basin instead of upward from a single point.
Overview
What This Pump Does
The jet aerator is a self priming submersible aerator that oxygenates and mixes in sewage water treatment. It integrates pump, air blower and gas liquid mixer in one unit and operates submerged, either on the pool floor or fixed to a floating body.
Air is drawn in by the vacuum created between impeller and stator, mixed with water inside the machine, and delivered as fine bubbles of about 100 microns into the basin.
- Self priming aeration with integrated pump blower and mixer
- Jet discharge for directional flow across the basin
- Bubble dispersion around 100 microns
- Submerged operation, bottom or float mounted
Key Benefits
Why A Jet Build Suits Wide Basins
Directional Flow
The jet stream carries aerated water across the basin, which helps in wide or shallow volumes.
Self Priming For Air
No compressor, no air main and no diffuser grid to maintain.
Aeration Plus Circulation
The stream keeps the basin moving as well as delivering oxygen.
Fixed Or Floating Mounting
Bottom mounted or float mounted depending on level variation and basin construction.
Application Scenarios
Where It Is Installed
Lagoons And Ponds
Large shallow volumes where a single point aerator leaves dead zones.
Equalisation Tanks
Keeping the contents moving and aerobic where flows vary through the day.
Activated Sludge Stages
Pre-aeration and activated sludge duty alongside other aeration equipment.
Who It Is For
- Operators of lagoons and stabilisation ponds
- Industrial sites with equalisation basins
- Treatment works needing directional mixing
- Contractors retrofitting aeration
Problems It Solves
Dead zones in a wide basin
A directed stream carries oxygenated water into corners a point source cannot reach.
Shallow basins limit bubble contact
Mixing air into the water inside the machine gets transfer done without relying on depth alone.
Infrastructure cost
No blower house or air distribution system is needed for the aeration to work.

Compared With Other Options
| SKCB submersible aerator | The SKCB suits deeper compact basins. The jet build covers wider shallow volumes with directional flow. |
|---|---|
| Surface aerator | A surface machine sprays and loses heat. A submerged jet keeps the energy in the water. |
Use Guide
Positioning A Jet Aerator
Map The Basin
Plan nozzle direction so the stream sweeps the whole volume, including corners.
Confirm Submergence
Ensure the unit remains submerged at minimum level, especially in equalisation tanks.
Keep The Intake Clear
Check the air intake for foam and debris during routine inspection.
Verify Mixing
Look for settled solids after commissioning and adjust direction or add a unit if corners stay quiet.
Answers
Jet Aerator FAQ
How does a jet aerator differ from a standard submersible aerator?
It delivers the air and water mixture as a directed stream, which suits wide or shallow basins where coverage matters as much as transfer.
Does it need a blower?
No. It is a self priming aerator that draws its own air through the pipe.
What bubble size does it produce?
About 100 microns in diameter.
Can it be mounted on a float?
Yes, on the pool floor or fixed to a floating body.
How many units does a lagoon need?
That depends on volume, depth, shape and load. Send those and we will propose a layout.
