Hi All

New compressor has new type p42 securus system fitted cartridge 87916
any one know if p41 cartridge 61686 will fit ?
It looks the same to me at first glance.

Any one know if LF do a copy for P42 yet ?
 
Hello WIndy,

How are you ?
Is this the P42 you are using ? Has intergrated water separator at base of the P42 tower ?

Hi IVA

Yes that is the new type system P42.
Is your block 4 stage ? & are you running to give 320Lt/min or 400Lt/min ?
Do you have the new B control system fitted.

Back to main question will P41 carts fit and work in a P42 housing.

:D it is not mine, it belongs to a dive center. I just got the photo because I am curious why they call it a P42 while in USA P42 is a P41 x 2 units with a separate water separator. There is no info on European P42 I can find.

This is the cheapo Poseidon/Bauer using the same block as my 3 stage Mariner 200 K 120II but it is pushed to 1,800 RPM to get a 300 L/M, then they called it HE300 or PE300, HE is this square frame. This one has no B control, not even overheating shutdown or low oil pressure shut down, only auto-drain. Once it is a branded as Poseidon, the good stuff dissapear and priced lower, same case as PE200 which is basically a stripped down Mariner 200.

Actually I have the same question as you regarding the filter, since I took a look at the non securus cartridge for this P42 is the
same as my P41. :D So dimension wise internally is all the same. If there is any difference at all it would be perhaps the way the Securus cable inter connect to the P42 Securus filter cartridge sensor. Better yet, this could be a way of selling cheaper Securus cartridge for a lower cost P42.

Do you have a schematic on the P42 tower ? Are you on a Bauer brand or Poseidon ?
I am very curious how the intergration of the water separator to the filter tower is for presure life cycle concern.
I can only think of P42 as a cost savings method over a P41 which requires a stand alone water separator but I like it that way.

Sorry I cant help you on the filter cartridge question, but as curious as you are.

Thanks n apology
IYA

Hi again

Its a bauer/poseidon Pe400-ve version.
I have not had much time to have a good look at the manual/cd that came with it.
When i can i will get a copy of the cd for you to look at load cycles.

Looks as if i will have to sort out if a p41 securus cart will fit the new type p42 housing.

The b control brain has total control of the unit
user can do some things on a small service ok
Things like valve change require a call from bauer service to reset the brain or it will shut down.

Hi Windy

Ask these shop in Germany
Gosotek Filterpatronen

US boys wont be able to help you as the P42 is not a US product yet, and I doubt it will be marketed in the USA.
Price is the same though p41/p42 securus with hopcalite.

Let me know the difference when you know yah.

Good luck shopping.
