Pulsatron pumps

Hi everyone,
I have an old belanger vector IBA. It currently using pulsatron pumps on presoaks and triple foams. Presoaks use bigger one (http://www.ascws.com/product/8137/pump-pulsatron-10oz-and-min.htm) and tripple foams use smaller one (http://www.ascws.com/product/8143/pump-pulsation-2-and-1-and-2-oz.htm). They are old but still working great. But I would like to buy a spare one or repair kit in case it went out. But the price is ridiculous high. I see kleen-rite sell them for much cheaper. But I don't know the right model. Has anyone owned belanger vector and know the right model or recommend which model to buy? Thanks in advance!
 
The only real difference between the ones Belanger uses and what Kleen-Rite sells is the power connector. Belanger uses a "proprietary" setup so you can't simply swap in a new pump and plug it in unless you get one from Belanger. Just get the right feed rate pump, and you can add the plug yourself. Mouser, Digikey, Automation Direct, and Kleen-Rite should all have them. You can also remove the plug from a failed pump and wire it into the new one.
 
MEP001 is right. Order the kleen rite one and then wire it yourself. My local car wash repair company even had those connectors at their shop, to my knowledge they are a common plug.
 
Thanks MEP001 and wyatt.
Yes, the main problem is I don't know the specs of the pump lol. I don't know if the Belanger techs would tell me the specs of the pump or they force me to buy directly from them (from experience in the past) lol.
 
Belanger said since the OPW buyout, they aren't selling direct anymore because they don't want to collect sales tax everywhere. I have a pile of those sitting around... I would prefer having cash instead:unsure:. 75 bucks each?
