No difference, the seal fits all models.


The vital thing is to fit the seal the correct way up (see the HowTo for details) around the lip of the port. The filter (or the pump) is than lowered down onto it. It's not possible to do it by fitting the seal around the filter/pump module first. The locking ring should start easily on the port thread by hand. If any downward forcing is needed to start the ring, the seal isn't positioned correctly.
