New Eheim Compact Plus NW skimmer pump
Someone posted this on the MSX thread, and I thought the general skimmer crowd might be interested to see it. Eheim has a new NW skimmer pump called the Eheim Compact Plus
http://www.eheim.de/eheim/pdf/en/bro..._marine_GB.pdf Not much info yet. I dont see air draw numbers in the specs. Technical data pump output l/h 800-2700 delivery head Hmax m 2.2 power consumption Watt 44 tubing connection: suction side ø G 1” pressure side ø G 1” dimensions HxLxD mm 138x82x115 with needle wheel for higher performance completely safe due to hermetically sealed motor High Performance Ceramics for quiet running smoothness and extremely long life suitable for long term use inside or outside water; not self-priming only for marine water 3 year guarantee  Marinedepot has them listed but shows out of stock.

Doesn't look like it has a lot of needles on the needle wheel. Looks like two rows.

I note it also has an adjustable valve on the side. Interesting.

Marine Depot wasn't making it very clear but said that they could not get the aquabees so they are offering this pump instead. I guess I can call again to get a clearer answer.

I'm hoping when they become more widely available the price gets better.

Interesting new pump. I am thinking replacing my Gen X 6000 with it. Will standard PVC fittings work? Or is it metric? Also does it include a venturi fitting?
