I will have to come right out and confess I have not had one of these in my possession to play with yet, so I am not well versed in set up or use, but these things look really cool, and I've had a lot of interest in them since the RB article a while back. I am happy to say that we have a few of these guys here in the US available and ready to ship.

Here are some specs and info pasted from D&D. Please PM me for pricing.

Introduction
Twin-Tech Calcium Reactors
Introducing the latest generation Deltec Twin-Tech Calcium Reactor, introduced by Reefbuilders as the “Supercar of Calcium Reactors”
Calcium reactors still remain the easiest and most stable method for making additions to the reef aquarium, requiring little testing to keep the system in balance.

Models
  • Twin-Tech 1500 – for aquariums up to 396 gallons
  • Twin-Tech 3000 – for aquariums up to 792 gallons
  • Twin-Tech 10000 – for aquariums up to 2600 gallons

Principle
This latest generation reactor operates on the principle of total CO2 saturation by the continuous recirculating of the water in the reactor through a large bubble of gas.
The CO2 dissolves in the water until it is fully saturated, which occurs at a very low pH, at which point no further gas can be dissolved until additional water is added to the reactor. The whole process is controlled automatically by the digital controller and float switch in the gas chamber.
As the CO2 bubble dissolves in the water, the water level rises, which raises the float switch and triggers the solenoid valve to add more gas to replenish the bubble.

Features
The innovative Twin-Tech reactor has several unique features providing the simplicity of control but also relating to the way that the system feeds the reactor with water from the aquarium.
The smart controller on the Twin-Tech uses a built-in flow meter to accurately measure the volume of water passing into the reactor, information it uses to control a standard DC feed pump. This feature allows the user to know exactly how much reactor effluent, in liters, is being added to the aquarium within each 24-hour period, which is shown on a large LCD display in the center of the controller.
The water flow can be adjusted by the user between 10 and 350lt per day simply by pressing two up and down buttons on the panel.

The reactor as standard consists of the following items.
  • Large media chamber.
  • Smaller gas chamber with float switch.
  • Controller with separate power supply unit.
  • Recirculation pump and connections.
  • Feed pump with suction filter.
  • Low voltage solenoid valve.
  • Hoses and non-return valves to connect the unit.

Not included
  • CO2 bottle, CO2 regulator (important, 2 stage regulator is required) and CO2 hose.
  • Calcium reactor media.

@Battlecorals Adam are you planning or started using one yet? Looking to hear feedback or review. I’m already setup on a pretty reliable ss 2-stage regulator and masterflex, but seeing if any upgrade is worthwhile. There is the new Aquarium Engineering that’s interesting too.

And where can you find the duel stage regulator that this requires

I think it’s supposed to be a dual GAUGE or 2 STAGE not DUAL STAGE. I asked Adam a while back what regulator to use and he directed me toward a standard dual gauge regulator.

But for the record this is a dual Stage unit I found.

The description on the website says 2 stage regulator.

Can you give us a price?

The manual says it’s a duel stage‍
From what I understand a 2 stage and duel stage is the same thing. It allows the unit to run consent pressure even when the bottle is almost empty. Atleast that’s how I understand it

I understand that. But it’s written from a German translation.
not trying to be a smart butt here but why would deltec care if you ran a 2 gauge unit or not?
I was guessing they want to make sure you had constant pressure over the life of the bottle.
If the translation is wrong that's great I can buy any decent regulator

I‘m not thinking you‘re being anything other than wanting to know for sure. It’s not a cheap gadget. To spend that kind of money you want to be sure.. I get it.

I’m in the same boat as you.. I want to be sure if I buy this thing I get the right parts to support it.

I'm pretty sure you can run any regulator like Adam said, but a dual stage is not much more than a single. May as well get one.
