The air water mix from the pump is delivered into an inner chamber inside the body of the skimmer, this serves several functions including reducing turbulence in the main body, increasing dwell time, and helping prevent bubbles escaping the body without the need for mechanical degassing. The shape of the main skimmer body does not taper or narrow towards the top. This results in the small air bubbles being able to rise unhindered, allowing them to become fully saturated with organics, only bursting in the riser tube inside the collection cup and creating a stable foam.

Deltec protein skimmers have a specially developed emergency overflow system.
This prevents the collection cup overflowing if the water level in the protein skimmer rises due to the sump water level suddenly increasing, or the air intake becoming blocked. If the water level within the body of the protein skimmer becomes too high the air feed will be automatically shut off via the emergency overflow and excess water can escape, preventing the cup from flooding.
The water level within the protein skimmer can easily be seen in the emergency overflow pipe to help optimize the water level inside the unit.
