Newa Maxi Powerhead是一款可熟悉的小水族泵,新鲜和盐水水族馆都应该熟悉。十多年来,由于实际的maxijet泵和maxijet名称之间的断开连接,“ Maxijet”遭受了一种身份危机。
In the early 2000s United Pet Group purchased the rights to the Instant Ocean brand in North America along with its popular product names such as Reef Crystals, Visi-Therm heaters, Seaclone protein skimmers as well as the Maxijet pump. Most of these products (and their names) were transferred to the Marineland division and the Maxijet name was applied to a new Chinese made version of the pump.
This new pump bears many superficial similarities with the beloved maxijet pump but it experienced cost-cutting measures which eliminated small but crucial details of the original, leading to a decent but somewhat average submersible water pump. The Chinese ‘maxijet’ has a kind of curved ridge molded into the front of the pump body to accomodate the retrofit for propeller flow which was never present on the original, making it much easier to discern the difference between the Chinese and Italian versions.
Meanwhile the original pump continued to be produced at its original factory in Italy but it was sold under several different brands with familiar names like theCobalt MJ pump最近,Newa Maxi。美国和欧洲市场之间的完整情况进一步脱节,但是目前,如果您想要美国最原始的Maxijet泵,那么真正的McCoy只能作为Newa Maxi Powerhead提供。
These Maxi Pumps under the Newa banner include all the same models and specifications as the original with classic 400, 600, 900, and 1200 pump designations. While they might cost more than their Marineland Maxijet counterparts, ranging from $34 to $45, the Newa Maxi Powerhead are the quieter and longer lasting water movers that aquarium hobbyists have enjoyed for decades.
