6100 Driver & Transformer dead

[xtra-salty]

I'm running 2 Tunze 6105's as my main pumps and i have 2 - 6100's as well. On one of the 6100's both the transformer and driver stopped working, if I swap those parts from the other 6100 the pump works fine but both the driver and transformer fail to work on either pump in any combination. Just trying to find out what my options are, I am having a hard time find any 6100 pumps online. Thanks

The 6100 motors are no longer made but we still have drivers and transformers in stock. You should be able to order the parts on Tunze.com. Are you sure you have a 6100 and not a 6000, both have the same 6100.100 pump? A 6100 transformer is part 7410.602, a 6000 transformer is part 7210.202. I ask because 6100 transformers rarely fail. The cause in these cases is the driver fails and overloads the transformer, the smaller 20W 6000 transformer is more easily overloaded than the 60W 6100 transformer. You need parts 7240.270 and one of the transformers listed above, but in all honesty, it is going to cost $150-$200 to repair and this just doesn't seem worthwhile.

I looked, it is a 6000. Basically not worth to fix it seems. Thanks for the info though
