IMPORTANT - These are not a usual air pump, they are designed for deep Aquariums 60cm+ and / or using with large air bars. They are high powered air pumps. With this in mind, use in smaller aquariums is not recommended and will generally be louder and vibrate more as they require the back pressure to work effectively.
Air for life: membrane pumps
Life in the aquarium is inconceivable without oxygen. Apart from further prerequisites such as heat and light, Schego membrane pumps contribute decisively to an aquarium becoming a habitat. Air is life.
Oxygen is vitally necessary for fish and primitive sea species in the aquarium, for they have no CO2 respiration. Leading experts also recommend oxygen as remedy for the regeneration of diseased fish. Nevertheless, pure oxygen should not be provided as this can act toxically. Schego offers membrane pumps for aeration or use in filter systems and protein skimmers. This guarantees keeping the animals in a species-appropriate environment in the aquarium.
All Schego membrane pumps work extremely reliably in continuous operation and are characterized by very quiet running, they have little vibration and are stable. Thanks to more than 70 years experience, high-quality and careful processing are a matter of course – naturally ”Made in Germany”.
Different performance types with an air delivery of 100 l/h to 350 l/h are available. Long-life membranes, easily changeable prefilters, transparent housing with suspension are additional plus points with all Schego membrane pumps.
Air for life – everywhere
Membrane pumps for battery connection 12 V DC
Schego pumps for battery connection enable a supply of oxygen where no mains power is available.
These pumps have been developed for fish and live foods transport. Fish suffer from lack of oxygen during long lasting transports, especially in the summer months, so that the tanks must be aerated. Connecting the air pump to the car battery or to the cigarette lighter is suitable in this case. Therefore the approved 12 V pumps are available with a mounted car battery plug.
In recent years power supply by means of solar cells, especially in the leisure area, has become increasingly popular. Schego pumps in combination with solar cells are very well suited for this application and have proved their worth.

The Schego WS3/0.3 bar Single Outlet Air Pump is actually specified as having a flow rate of 350 L/hr (liters per hour), not 250 L/hr, and a maximum pressure of 0.3432 bar (3.5 meters water column).
There seems to be some confusion with the Schego Optimal or WS2 models, which offer 250 L/hr output at 5W. However, the WS3 is a higher-pressure model designed for deeper tanks or applications requiring more air pressure, such as protein skimmers.
