Hi.
I have a Deltec MCE-600, purchased from a fellow reefer. Not sure about the age, I think around two years old.
Was working fine, has become very noisy for past few days.
Some knocking sound keeps coming continuously.

Any ideas how to fix it ?
Few posts mention I need a new Dampening kit to reduce the noise.

Any ideas if this will help in reducing the noise?
Where to get this kit........... :-)

Have you stripped and cleaned the pump unit as this would be a good place to start as for the dampening kit, yours may have it already, look on either side of the motor housing when you have the unit out and see if there are any rubber strips that have been slid down the two side mouldings of the motor housing, if they are there then you have the dampening kit, you may find that the noise is down to the shaft end bushes being worn and they may need to be replaced.

You can buy the damp kits from most LFS. We also sell them direct.
E mail me at spares@theaquariumsolution.com if you would like to purchase a kit.

Many Thanks
