Tunze 6000

[biecacka]

Hey I have a Tunze 6000 that up and recently switched gears on me. The prop spins but the outflow seems to be cut back dramatically. Like more than half. Im not sure what's going on. Any ideas

More than likely half the motor windings have shorted, which is not a repairable issue. Eventually it will die completely as it is using more power as a result of the dead half coil.

So basically start looking to replace it!

The 6100.015 set on Tunze.com is an upgrade kit, it is essentially a 6105 pump and power supply, all it lacks is the wide flow housing and magnet holder, in place of the magnet holder you get an adapter clamp that works with an older magnet or rail holder.

So roger what all comes With this set. Is it the new style pump or a new motor block for the old style only.

Complete 6105 pump, power supply and the adapter clamp 6080.520.

So I just use my current magnets?

Corey

 

[rvitko]

Correct, we got the order and it will go out tomorrow.
