What Tunze pumps do I have?

[markvo]

I bought a complete used system and it came with some Tunze streams. 2 of the pumps say 6201 and the other 3 have lost their stickers. 2 of the pumps have transformers that say 7410.602A, 2 say 6200.800A, and the 5th came with a small box attached and what looks like a long rectangular transformer.

How do I figure out exactly what I have and what it would take to upgrade them?

The 7410.602A would go with the 6100 pumps (hockey puck transformer and silver driver box)
The 6200.800A would go with the 6200 pumps (hockey puck transformer and silver driver box)
The one with the rectangle transformer is either a 6101 or a 6201 (newer model small junction box and rectangle power supply)

What do you mean by upgrade? The only pump that could really be upgraded was the 6000 to a 6100 via the larger transformer.

Thanks for the help Shawn. The 2 Streams with the 6201 tags must go with the 800A pucks. Perhaps they are early 6201s not 6200s. The other 2 without the small box must be 6100s.

There must be some way to tell whether the 5th Stream is a 6101 or a 6201. I assume they don't have the same motor block.

I thought I remember Roger telling someone who had a frozen 6101 that he would get a discounted upgrade cost for a 6105. This made me think that there was an upgrade path from 6101 to 6105 and 6201 to 6205.

Hopefully Roger will say.

Yes and no, there is no discount unless a pump is toast and not repairable. However you can buy a upgrade outright on Tunze.com, 6100.015 for 6100, 6101.015 for 6101, 6200.015 for 6200 and 6201.015 for 6201.

You are correct, the very last 6200's had 6201 stickers, we have to print these stickers by the thousands and it made no sense to reprint the old sticker at that point. For a short time some 6100 and 6200 had no sticker for the same reason. If the rectangular transformers say 6300.240 it is for a 6201, if it says 6101.240, it is for a 6101.

Thanks for the details Roger. I have a 6300.240 transformer, so I have a 6201. I'll check the Tunze website for the upgrade cost.

The person I bought the system from spoke highly of your service and I appreciate it too.
