De-Icer Feeder Assembly Replacement for the PJDX-C Pulse Jet De-Icer
Overview
When the seal at the curb stop starts leaking or the tubing no longer feeds straight into the service line, the Magikist probe feeder assembly needs replacing. It connects to the curb stop fitting on the PJDX-C, guides tubing into the pipe, and includes a return valve that sends water back to the reservoir. Two models: Magikist PJD78C-A for 1/4" black tubing and PJD78C-D for 5/16" red tubing.

Key Features
- Connects to the curb stop fitting and creates the seal that keeps water from spraying back at the operator during thawing. A worn PJDX-C probe feeder leaks at this seal and loses system pressure.
- Guides the tubing and probe tip straight into the service line opening. A worn or damaged guide causes the tubing to feed at an angle, increasing drag and making it harder to reach the frozen section.
- Includes the return valve that directs water from the service line back to the reservoir through the return hose. When this valve fails to seat, the system loses water recirculation and the reservoir drains instead of recycling.
What the Feeder Assembly Does in the System
In the PJDX-C thawing sequence, the de-icer feeder assembly replacement sits between the machine and the frozen pipe. The operator attaches it to the curb stop, then feeds tubing through the assembly and into the service line.
While the pump pushes heated water down the tubing to the ice, the feeder assembly's return valve directs the water flowing back from the service line through the return hose and into the reservoir for reheating.
Without a functioning feeder assembly, the operator cannot seal against the curb stop, guide the tubing into the pipe, or recirculate water.

FAQs
What does the probe feeder assembly do?
The Magikist probe feeder assembly is the connection point between the PJDX-C machine and the frozen service line. It attaches at the curb stop, feeds tubing into the pipe, and recirculates return water back to the reservoir for reheating.
What is the difference between Magikist PJD78C-A vs PJD78C-D?
PJD78C-A fits 1/4" black tubing. PJD78C-D fits 5/16" red tubing. The tubing guide diameter matches the tubing size. Order the model that matches the tubing on your reel.
When to replace probe feeder assembly?
Inspect the feeder assembly at the start of each thawing season alongside probe tips and tubing. Replace when the curb stop seal no longer holds pressure, the tubing guide is visibly worn, or the return valve does not close fully.
Is the probe tip included with the feeder assembly?
No. The Magikist probe feeder assembly and the probe tip are separate parts. The feeder assembly guides tubing into the pipe at the curb stop. The probe tip attaches to the end of the tubing inside the pipe. Order the matching probe tip separately (PJD45A for 1/4", PJD45B for 5/16").
