I am having problems with this cooling pump.
http://www.depcopump.com/datasheets/...10-24218-1.pdf This pump has been overhauled twice and apart from that it has been serviced with new seals but it keeps developing a leak. Last time (2 months after overhaul) the seawater crept through 2 seals into the engine block. I had to take out 2 gallons of salt water. Now it starts again to drip. since that last servicing I have only been in clear seawater. I'm thinking of : 1) some mechanical ceramic seal that will do the job properly and for years but I have no clue how to go about that one. 2) removing the waterhoses from this pump and add an electrical pump with enough capacity and proper alarms and so on. I would be obliged if you could spill your experience / thoughts regarding this. Regards, Len on board s.v Present, at the moment in Grenada, W.I. |
