Finished off our Clark pump rebuild of the Spectra Ventura 200T water maker. The piston rod took a little sanding on one end to make a chamfer so we could get it through the seals. Also we replaced the plastic spring washers with new stainless steel ones on the check valves. All new "O" rings for the check valves and etc. That finished it off. All done now and ready for the piston cylinders to be reinstalled. We will do that at the boat and put in the new membrane when we get back.
November 2021 - house sitting in San Diego Cal.
Getting ready to put the piston rod seals in.
Debbie placing seals in the we used the piston rod as a backing to put the seals in-place.
Now for the check valves.
The holes where the check valves go are next to each other on each side (4).
Old plastic springs and new stainless steel springs.
Got the seals in but the piston rod will not go through the new seals. There is a special tool for this but we do not have it. So made a chamfer at one end of the rod and then worked the rod through the seas with lots of silicone grease.
