SSI Aeration, Inc. manufactures and sells fine bubble tube diffusers for wastewater management applications. Tube diffusers are affordable aeration solutions with slender designs that fit in any aeration tank. They feature economical stainless steel to expedite production and lead times. Plant operators can find and order various types of tube diffusers online through SSI.

What Makes SSI’s Tube Diffusers a Global Choice?

SSI tube diffusers are ideal in wastewater aeration applications. Each design offers a unique way to produce bubbles that optimize the oxygen transfer rate so more microbes can grow during activated sludge treatment.

Tube diffusers produce small bubbles with substantial active surface areas. Smaller, more active bubbles take longer to rise, and many sink to the bottom of the tank. The result is thorough aeration above and below the air source.

SSI’s designs reduce labor costs and manufacturing timelines, facilitating competitive prices and lead times. Additionally, SSI is able to produce various types of tube diffusers at different sizes. Custom designs are available as well. There is a tube diffuser for any aeration tank, and SSI helps clients choose the best option.

Types of Tube Diffusers

Tube diffusers install inside aeration tanks and deliver oxygen through a thin nozzle, causing bubbles to form. The bubbles facilitate the growth of microorganisms that consume organic material during the activated sludge treatment process. There are various types of tube diffusers featuring different materials and configurations. SSI Tube Diffusers are available in ( PTFE) and a variety of other membrane materials all designed to resist clogging and fouling. These diffusers are affordable due to cost-efficient production methods and materials. They are easy to install with Snappy Saddle™ or standard nipple mounts.

Snappy Saddle™ Diffusers

SSI’s Snappy Saddle diffusers offer simple installation and advanced efficiency. The single-seal design expedites installation and reduces the risk of leakage by 50%. It only takes one technician to install a Snappy Saddle diffuser.

ECT Diffusers

An ECT tube diffuser will provide high SOTE with minimal pressure loss. SSI develops ECT diffusers by molding the plastic housing around the membrane rather than shaping, clamping or gluing the device together. This manufacturing choice produces competitive quality at a 75% lower cost. Membrane material options include EPDM, PTFE and silicone.

Engineered Tube Diffusers for Reliable Aeration Efficiency

Every aeration system requires the right balance of performance, efficiency, and reliability. SSI Aeration offers multiple membrane options for our tube diffusers, engineered to resist fouling, scaling, and chemical attack. These advanced designs help extend service life, reduce maintenance needs, and maintain consistent oxygen transfer efficiency throughout the diffuser’s lifespan.

Our aeration tube diffusers are available with membrane formulations suited for both municipal and industrial wastewater treatment, ensuring stable performance even under demanding operating conditions. Each membrane type is developed to deliver long term durability and energy efficient operation.

Sizes and Configurations for Any Aeration System

SSI tube diffusers are available in a range of lengths and diameters, including 2 inch and 3 inch nipple or Snappy Saddle connections. Custom configurations can be manufactured to meet project specific requirements and performance goals.

For cost conscious systems, the ECT Tube Diffuser features a half moon profile approximately 70 mm in diameter. This streamlined design provides reliable aeration performance while maintaining SSI’s quality standards for efficiency and value.
