💡 WHICH MODEL SHOULD I CHOOSE?

1200 → 1200L/H | 28W | 2.0m Head

2400 → 2400L/H | 65W | 3.7m Head

3400 → 3400L/H | 80W | 3.6m Head

⚠️ IMPORTANT:

Higher L/H does not automatically mean higher pumping height.

The Universal 2400 has a slightly HIGHER maximum pumping head (3.7m) than the Universal 3400 (3.6m), while the 3400 provides significantly greater maximum water flow.

Choose according to both FLOW RATE and REQUIRED PUMPING HEIGHT.

🌊 SUBMERSIBLE OR EXTERNAL USE

One of the biggest advantages of EHEIM Universal:

UNDERWATER

→ Install the pump submerged inside an aquarium, sump or suitable water chamber.

EXTERNAL / IN-LINE

→ Install outside the water and connect suitable plumbing to the pump inlet and outlet.

This makes the Universal series highly versatile for custom aquarium filtration and circulation systems.

🛡️ INTEGRATED PRE-FILTER

An integrated pre-filter helps prevent larger particles from entering and damaging the impeller, contributing to reliable operation and longer service life.

• Freshwater aquariums
