Hi

Does anyone know the diameter of a modern Truma Ultraflow submersible pump?

I have an oldish Aquaroll with a 39mm diameter inlet, but not sure whether this is sufficient for a modern pump.

We have not collected our new caravan yet so have nothing to measure.

Thanks.

    50mm at its widest point.

    I keep mine after cleaning / replacing pipe behind me in my room over winter, so just measured it.

    Hi MC

    Thanks for the speedy reply.

    Looks like a new Aquaroll now needs adding to the list. undecided

    You are welcome, if you were near to East Yorkshire I would have one for free, I went for a little more capacity with the new one.

    Good luck with your new van 👍 and yes the list seems to be endless year on year.

     Just a thought - does your new caravan have an external pump?

    Lagerorwine - I assumed so!

    It’s a new Lunar Quasar 544 - I can’t imagine Lunar making any drastic changes from previous years. smile

    MC - I’m just outside Scarborough so not a million miles away.

    I'm in a village on the eastern side of Hull, it's yours if you are ever passing. It's a 30 litre one as in photo including handle.

    Would the dealer "throw in " a new aquaroll to go with the new caravan?(Dealers buy accessories like aquarolls at a good discount so it would not really be costing them very much out of their profit on a new van.)smilewink

    That is very kind, thank you. 

    It's a bit far for me but thank you for the offer.

    Why don't you phone your dealer and ask if your van has an on-board or external pump? smile

    I've just replaced the Truma Ultraflow on our new Knaus Starclass with a Whale High Flow.  The Whale has a much greater output, the pipe is flexible, unlike the Truma and it has a clip on the top to secure the pipe away from the ground when filling the Aquaroll - which the Truma doesn't have.

    They're available as a one-for-one replacement (i.e. Whale pump with Truma plug fitting) from most caravan dealers.

    Even though our van has an internal pump, the tube that goes into the aquaroll has a filter on the end, diameter 49 mm.
