DC Pump Teardown / Hack

Tear-down of a brushed 24-32 volt DC water diaphragm pump. I've seen these used in RO water filters and in a chemistry lab for pumping nasty chemicals. We used this one in a solar water pump application. It pumped a cubic meter (1 ton) of water a day on average for around 3 years.

Interesting, brush type motors have this fine line of either eating the brushes or the commutator. The new generation of brush less motors looks good, albeit additional electronics. Thanks for the video

Inside looked like a mini pressure washer pump or an electric shaver - haha. Nice new pump for your solar hot water.

You're right, it does!
