Hi Danny yes by the looks of it, it should be compatable.

It only has a 12v feed so you will need a hose to run from the outlet and depending which carver system your using you will also need to buy from any caravan accessory shop the necessary plug which ataches to the chrystal inlet point.

Simple wiring into the plug ie two small srews for positive and neg connection plus pipe usually attached via a jubilee clip to hold it in place.

To buy the unit pipe and adapter plug your probably talking about

Hello Danny,

Like I said it can be another make, and this one sounds as though it may well do the job.

To help thread the new power cable through the hose,, when you remove the old plug assembly, tie a piece of string to the wire ends, then when you pull the old cable out, it pulls the string through, which you can them use to pull the new cable through.

hi john

i just purchased one off ebay, so will the electric run up the inside of the pipe and into the electric socket then? then secured at each end with a jubilee clip?

hi danny

if your adapting a pump you have already got thats great.

take the 12v cable conection off the plug and pull through the sleave.

as prev mentioned before pulling original cable out tie a piece of string onto the end as you pull original 12v cable out it will pull the string through un-tie and attach to new cable and pull string back through with new cable attached reconnect to screws on plug re connect the water pipe to the pump and secure with a jubilee clip plug in and all should be fine.

Hope this helps

John
