The freshwater pump on the vessel Brupeg developed a significant leak, flooding the cofferdam with approximately 500 kilograms of water.1:06 Initial attempts to stop the leak by resealing the threaded connections with thread tape and sealant failed to resolve the issue.1:54 Further inspection revealed a hairline crack in the pump's plastic housing, which allowed water to spray even when the system was not under pressure.7:25 The crew removed the pump and replaced the damaged plastic housing with a stainless steel version sourced from JNR McCracken.7:46 Reinstalling the pump required minor adjustments to the mounting bracket and plumbing due to the slightly different dimensions of the new housing, which necessitated rotating a threaded fitting to clear an adjacent bulkhead.12:26 After reassembly, the system held 40 psi of pressure without further leaks.15:14 Replacing a cracked plastic pump housing with a stainless steel component provides a more durable, long-term solution for pressurized water systems.
