The iShallow CHL-1000 is a 15 W submersible pump for keepers who need water moved in shallow vessels where a standard pump would lose its prime or run dry. It can be run fully submerged or partly submerged, which makes it practical for low-water setups and for keepers who want continuous circulation without a deep sump.
Why it matters
- Low operating depth: the pump works with a minimum water level of 25 mm, so it can be used in very shallow containers.
- Dry-run protection: a temperature sensor combined with the microprocessor cuts power when the water runs out, stopping the pump before it is damaged by running dry.
- Head and flow: rated at 1000 l/h with a 140 cm lift, enough to push water up to that height.
- Clogging protection: a large mesh strainer keeps larger debris away from the impeller, and finer particles that pass through are pumped out.

What it works with
The pump fits circulation and water-transfer tasks in aquatic and paludarium setups with shallow water levels, where a conventional pump needs more depth than is available. Its 1000 l/h flow and 140 cm lift determine the vessel size and layout it suits, so check the planned lift height against the 140 cm rating before installation.

Frequently asked questions
The pump can work with only partial submersion, and the minimum water level is 25 mm. It is also fully waterproof and can run completely submerged.
A temperature sensor together with a microprocessor cuts the power when the water runs out, protecting the pump from running dry. The pump stops automatically as its operating temperature rises.
According to the manufacturer, the pump can run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and continuous operation does not affect its service life. The pump can lift water up to 140 cm and has a flow rate of 1000 l/h.
The set includes a fitting for a standard 12/16 mm hose, and it also works with any hose with a 12 mm inner diameter. A large sieve at the inlet stops bigger debris from reaching the impeller.
The pump runs on 230 V with a standard EU/PL plug and draws 15 W. The power cable is 160 cm long.
