Antari X-310 Phazer

[KPCK2]

Hi All

I've had the superb Antari X310 Phazer for around 5 years now.

It's been used 4 nights a week, every week (4hours a night) since I got it.

 

Over the last few nights, the quantity of haze has reduced to an absolute trickle.

Even when pressing the manual button, a very small amount comes out then back to a trickle, even on Max settings.

 

Do you think this is a blockage, or pump??

 

Also, I don't think this has anything to do with the issue, but the light on the 240V power in socket on the back is very dim.

 

I've seen a replacement pump for £29+p&p, are these easy to fit???

 

Cheers

 

Any help appreciated

Update.

Stripped the machine apart and tested the pump, pump worked fine when disconnected from the heater.

 

Concluded it was a blockage in the heater.

Took heater out and tried to put distilled water and vinegar mix through it. This had a limited but slightly improved result and at least there was a bit more haze produced, but nowhere near what it should have been.

 

After a couple of gigs, it became completely blocked again.

 

Managed to get hold of a new heater, replaced the unit.

 

Now works again like a dream.

 

Hope this helps someone else.

I've got the same problem with 3 of them. Only people I can find with spares is Terralec (and dont particularly like them) Where did you get your heating unit from?
