Seeking Old Red Sea Sump Valved Downpipe

[JHunter]

Hey Guys
Bought a second hand RedSea Reefer 170 - it’s an older model, so we’ve been upgrading to G2 system underneath and have hit a snag … as we have come across dodgy repair on the RedSea sump valved downpipe (the slide lock nut has snapped and cannot be repaired)

The Actual pipe is a Red Sea Reefer 170/XL 200 Sump Valved Downpipe - part number R42216 (see pic)

The new piping from RedSea doesn’t fit the old pipe work

Unsure what to do next as tried repair, tried new piping, am trying to find old pipe …

If have to upgrade top tank, will have to upgrade all piping which is undesirable.

Wondering if anyone has one off their old systems - that would be happy to sell?

Or if anyone can see another way - please share

I contacted redsea CS about replacing an older 170 tank only due to a seam failure. You'll probably have to diy something. It would be the perfect time to replace the diaphragm valve with a gate valve ;)
