60mm rotor for Deluxe 200. Disregard the BK1000. This rotor will work fine and is most likely what you have now as it was the recommended rotor for the Deluxe 200.

This is the other 60mm rotor for BK2000.

As I said, both will work but the first one is the rotor that the Deluxe 200's were shipping with.


Hi slief,

I received my replacement rotor today. It does indeed look like an exact match. However when I reassembled the pump and plugged it in I noticed very little was happening. Upon further inspection it is apparent that the pump is only turning the rotor intermittently. It starts to run then it stops an might try to start again but never really gets going.It seems like the motor block is struggling to turn it. I also notice was seems like a significant shake in motor when it is turning. Everything seems to turn freely and does not seem bound in any way. I have disassembled and reassembled a couple times now which didn't help.

Any ideas what could be wrong?

Thanks,
Kris
