what is quick disconnect power connector? does it stay below water line?

The quick disconnect power cord refers to a waterproof connector/fitting at the end of the electrical cord at the top of the motor/pump assembly. This allows the cordset to be replaced without breaking seals to the motor housing. This is important for 2 reasons: first to prevent water intrusion due to a damaged or improperly re installed seal and second to ensure the cooling oil (the motor is immersed in cooling oil) doesn't leak out.

Frankly don't. Wall end or power cord is normal 3prong plug. My unit has been in place for a few months with no problems at all.

Yes this one has quick connects under, it and comes with red and blue 1/4" and 3/8" black hose. The other end of hose do not have quick disconnects and those disconnects are required. The faucet is not top mount using screwdrivers and top cannot be removed nor it has twist lock. One has to tighten the brass nut provided from underside.

Not familiar with the Melnor disconnects; sorry, I don't know if the two brands are compatible. But I can tell you that the Gardena quick disconnect on this sprinkler can't be unscrewed and replaced with something else. It's a molded part of the base (not screwed on).

The macerator will be installed on a boat. I would not recommend a quick disconnect, if there is such a thing.

Quick disconnect did not work correctly after about a month of using it for weekend warrior woodsball it started to leak air through CO2 connecter and the marker, and not just a little bit but it would drain the tank. Be cautious if you are buying this, when I had the quick disconnect looked at by my tech he said that they were poorly manufactured. UPDATE:7/25/14 My tech and I have both been using one since January we found that if you over tighten the Quick Disconnect it will cause it to leak air but since then we have not had any problems.

no it does not have a quick disconnect feature. this is for a permanent mount only.

I would suggest Anderson Powerpole connectors for a quick connect/disconnect. They make them for all sorts of voltage/amperage ratings. I use them for connecting everything from my solar charge controllers to batteries; to connecting the winch on my truck.

you don't even need an true watertight connection like yo do with 110 ac volts. its 12vdc. just crimp the ends to you longer wire and throw in pond. it will corrode after a year or so but you light will give out before that. and it it doesn't just cut them off and put 2 more crimps. if you really high tech you can crimp to longer wires and cover in liquid electric tape you can get from wal mart then its water tight. its 10 bucks ppl so it is expendable.

The ball valve takes a 1/2 inch connector. I threaded in a half inch female quick disconnect and have a male disconnect in the tubing.

It's that gray plastic plug...just pull it out. I don't remember exactly where it was, but it only took a minute or less to find it and throw it out. Just look for the plastic thing that makes the water passage smaller.

If you cannot find the the quick-connect fittings, you can also use a 1/4" pipe thread to 1/4" compression thread adapter. I purchased mine on Amazon: Watts LFA23 Compression Male Adapter, 1/4-Inch C x 1/4-Inch MIP. This kills the quick connect, but doesn't cause any problems with using the filter. On my water lines the quick connect fittings used 1/4" compression fittings so once they were removed the adapter fit right in. No leaks.

You have to install the quick disconnect, purchased separately. Otherwise remove at hose end from first stage with wrench.

I do not use quick connectors for gas units. I prefer the standard threaded connections, and I added a ball valve shutoff incase of a gas leak.

This model does not have the quick disconnect. You have to detach it from the side clip to attach and detach it.

Turn off the water supply. The black end of the connector is hand screwed onto the flexible hose. Do not use pliers or wrench. That was the reason in my case that I had to replace this unit in the first place. The green end of the connection is a simple slide connection, Slide the green end down and then seat the connector over the faucet feed and release. I have found that it does not leak.

No, there is no built-in quick connect/disconnect per se. However, it is just 1 nut that needs to be removed and it disconnects easily. It takes about a minute or two to disconnect.
