I have been looking for a PSU for a used MP40QD that I bought without a PSU. Searches online reveal conflicting info on what to buy.

Can anyone tell me if I need a 24V 2.5A PSU with a 2.5mm plug or a 36V 2.5A PSU with a 2.5mm plug?

Thanks in advance for any and all input!!!

The QD are 32V, the old MP40ES or MP40WES are the one with the 24vdc PSU. Now you can use a 24vdc on the QD and it will work fine, only thing is that it will not push the 4500 gallons x hr. I do have one QD using a 24vdc and is working fine, even I have that one at 50% intensity.

Many thanks for the reply!
