A Spectra 10 Clark pump on the vessel Tritium required replacement after corrosion from nickel bronze fittings caused internal scoring of the piston cylinders and valves.2:06 The unit exhibited a 12% pressure deviation between cycles, exceeding the manufacturer’s 5% recommendation, and suffered damage to the fiberglass cylinder threads during an end-cap O-ring replacement.3:48 The crew replaced the system with a SolarMax Clark pump from Electromax, which features titanium annular rings and swivel fittings designed to simplify maintenance and reduce hose rigidity.5:04 The installation included a 48-volt Leeson motor, a Procon pump, and a PWM speed controller.7:23 A relief valve set between 100 and 150 psi protects the plumbing from over-pressurization.7:49 The new system produces 15 gallons of water per hour with a 4-amp draw from the 48-volt battery bank.11:50 Replacing proprietary O-rings with generic equivalents and upgrading to 316 stainless steel fittings can significantly reduce long-term maintenance costs for Clark pump systems.2:47
