Jesse and the gang

Can any one elaborate on the new upgrades kits:

The booster kit
The jumbo kit
And the needle wheel kit.

Thanks

booster kit was for old NS owners with a smaller injector. This was not a skimmer that was brought to the US and was from a model quite a few years back, I believe.
The jumbo kit is a larger collection cup.
The needle wheel kit is a small 90 degree elbow with no injector so you can add a needle wheel pump to your skimmer. In 220v countries you can add the eheim needle wheel that is available from them. I would imagine it will soon be made in 110v. Of course, you can add a needle wheel of a different make to the NS. Hope that helps.

Hi
What do you mean by “Of course, you can add a needle wheel of a different make to the NS” can I use any needle wheel pump? Let’s say for example can I use Aqua Medic OR 2500? If not do you have any other suggestions?

One more thing, is it possible to get some pictures of the old and new injectors?

Thank you very much for your help

yes it is possible to add a needlewheel with our skimmer provided you have added the fitting mentioned above. We have tried a few eheim modified pumps and they all work well.

I don't have pictures of the old injector, sorry.
