Berd Air pump 24V motor dying

[jakevsnake]

I have only had my Berd Air setup for a few months now and the motor on my pump is really weak.  I was troubleshooting cooling issues and didnt notice the weak flow until a little bit ago.  It still moves air but the flow is much lower than usual.  It didnt hit me that the pump was the issue until I realized the pump wasnt bouncing around on the mount I printed (uses rubber bands to suspend it) like it usually does.  Does anyone know where I can get a replacement motor for one of these pumps?  There are no markings on any of the parts so I dont even know where to begin looking since I dont even know the specs.

What voltage is the motor?
I may have a replacement motor I can send you.

what size tubing are you using from your pump to the nozzle? Too much restriction can cause the motor to fail prematurely.

[jakevsnake]

I am using the tubing that came with your kit. The tube going to the pipe is 1/4" OD, and seems like 1/8" ID. Of course im using the 1/16" yellow tubing that attaches to the pipe. Its a 24V motor in my pump. I was having all kinds of printing problems before I finally realized the pump was putting out far less air than it did when I got it.

Oh, I forgot to mention that I used a fan to blow on the motor while its running to help keep it cool.. i was hoping that would prevent premature failure but it did not.

OK, I'll be back in my shop Monday. I will see what I have in stock.

Unfortunately I am out of stock on the 24v pumps. Send your address to [e-mail] and I will ship you a new motor as soon as my next order arrives. - No charge. Sorry for the inconvenience.

What are the specs on this motor? It would be nice to have a spare and also potentially sourcing a more robust motor.

Specs are listed with on the site

There are better pumps but they run around $60 - $100. (and bigger)

Curious which pumps are out there besides the style of pump you have here. Seems that most of my searches turn up similar pumps to the ones you sell, but I havent seen a better alternative.

Some have reported good results with the Brush-less version of this pump,
