Can anyone tell me what type of oil is in the high pressure gauge of the watermaker? It’s a Watermaker HR BY4. I’m on a friends boat and he has a leak.

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] electrolysis on jib furling gearbox? [1 Attachment]
Hi Scott,
There are a number of things that can cause galvanic corrosion. Typically a poor grounding system in the marina can be a cause. But there can also be a DC component on the AC power. That is

Re: BILGE WATER PUMP

Hi Giovanni
Sorry, I can’t find any photos of the installation.
I’ll keep looking.
But basically the mounting holes are not the same as the AMFA pump, so I used a nylon chopping board like you

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] electrolysis on jib furling gearbox? [1 Attachment]
Scott,
I made it as simple as possible.
As it has to be installed first after shore power socket and before all devices, circuit-breakers...
I installed the galvanic isolator in the aft trunk, port

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] electrolysis on jib furling gearbox? [1 Attachment]
Dominique,
I was looking at that model also. Did you install it in the lazarette in the same place where Arno installed his Mastervolt isolation transformer?
I was wondering if you could install it

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] electrolysis on jib furling gearbox? [1 Attachment]
Hello Scott,
I'm in the same situation as you, I rarely go to marinas so I chose to install a Victron galvanic isolator.
It's lighter, smaller, much cheaper and very easy to install.
It works

Re: BILGE WATER PUMP

As Alan Leslie mentioned the Johnson Viking 32, we have also replaced the original AMFA pump with a Johnson Viking. It is well-built, extremely easy to maintain, has a higher output than the original

Arno,
No need to apologize - I am happy to get advice from anyone. I agree that the 54s are far too tail heavy as is.
I am looking at getting a galvanic isolator and it seems the device you installed

Hi Scott,
Sorry to barge into your question to Mohammad.
But just as some addition information for you. I have installed a Galvanic Isolator as well last year because of the poor electrical system
