Aquaclear 50/200 media basket

thingiverse

Years ago I made a media basket for my Aquaclear 50 filter based of some designs I saw online with acrylic glass a couple drill bits and silicone. A few years have passed and the silicone is starting to fall apart so I decided to design and 3d print a new one. The original basket only allowed for two types of media. With this design you can have three (I use carbon, biomax and foam) Dimensions: V1 Frame: <ul> <li>128mm (H).</li> <li>122mm (W).</li> <li>60mm (D).</li> </ul> Tray: <ul> <li>3mm (H).</li> <li>72mm (W).</li> <li>56mm (D).</li> </ul> V2 Frame: <ul> <li>128mm (H).</li> <li>122mm (W).</li> <li>55mm/46mm (D) at top/bottom.</li> </ul> Tray: <ul> <li>3mm (H).</li> <li>72mm (W).</li> <li>47mm (D).</li> </ul> Update (11-09-2017): Added V2. Originally I designed the basket based on the measurements of a replacement basket I found online because I didn't want to disable the filter. When I was test fitting I noticed it was to tight so I made some changes in the depth. V2 is 55mm deep at the top and 46mm deep at the bottom. The tray was also changed to 47mm deep. I'm leaving the V1 files online because I don't know if there's any difference in size between American vs European versions or really old (like mine) vs newer ones.
