Summer Waves (Polygroup) Pool SFX-Skimmer to Intex outlet/filter adapter

prusaprinters

This replaces the bottom plate with the fixed pump from the Summer Waves Pool (Polygroup) SFX-Skimmers. With the new bottom plate you can mount a 38mm Intex outlet and attach a Intex filter very easily (1.5" Intex hoses). All changes can be undone, so warranty shouldn't be affected.  The blind plug is used to close the 1.25" connector on the Summer Waves SFX-Skimmer (previously the outlet of the original pump). Use one of the clamps of the original hose to secure the cap. Perhaps you need to scale this part +/- 0.5 Percent for tight fit (depends on your Printer), the default size should work for most printers. The inner diameter should be around 31.6 to 31.75mm (1.25 Inch). Tested with a SFX600 Filter/Skimmer. Should also fit the other SFX-Models like SFX1000 or SFX1500. Instructions:print both partscheck the inner diameter of the blind cap (see above)! mount the Intex outlet parts (Intex 10744, 10256, 10255) to the printed bottom partremove the original plate with the pump from the Summer Waves SFX-Skimmer.
