Atb 840 v2

rob020880 · 03/02/2011, 12:12 PM

Hello,

I am about to order this skimmer but wanted to confirm some dimensions with owners. I asked people at the various vendors but none of them have one in stock and are unable to provide me with the measurements I need.

The dimensions listed on all the sites are 10.5L x14W x20H. The thing is the skimmer section of my sump measures 10"x14" the height shouldnt be an issue. What I am wondering is if would be able to squeeze it in there by angling the skimmer a bit, im missing 1/2" on the length.

I am also very interested in the dimensions of the actual collection cup, my clearances are super tight.

I really appreciate your help, I don't want to drop big bucks on this thing and then have to return it over half an inch.

Thanks,

I think these are out of stock everywhere...gonna be back in stock some time this month...just fyi...its the exact same measurement as the atb 840 v1.5, so its probably easy to find those measurements

I just bought a used one. It will get to me probably end of next week. If you don't get an answer by then I will post it.

I had an original 840 econo and the foot print was 8 x 13.5 with a 7.9" base dia. Not sure what the V2 is. I would send a e-mail to ATB to be sure.
