Installation

  • System setup: This includes physically installing the pump system in its designated location, securing it to a proper foundation, and connecting it to the fluid intake and output pipes.

  • Electrical and mechanical connections: The service connects the pump system to its power source, ensuring all electrical wiring is done correctly. 

  • Alignment and lubrication: After initial installation, mechanics check and ensure the alignment between the pump and driver is correct. They also add the proper type and amount of lubricant to the bearing housings.

  • Testing and commissioning: Once assembled, the system is tested to confirm it is operating correctly, with no leaks and that it is moving the fluid at the expected rate. 

Training

  • System Overview: A review of the specific pump system's design, its major components (pumps, motor, piping, controls), and their functions.

  • Normal Operation: Procedures for proper start-up, operation under various conditions, and shut-down.

  • Control System: Detailed description and operation of the control panel, including any automation, variable frequency drives (VFDs), and the importance of avoiding overrides.

  • Routine Maintenance: Instruction on daily/weekly checks, such as inspecting for leaks, unusual noises or vibrations, checking pressure gauges, and monitoring bearing temperatures and oil levels.

  • Safety Procedures: Emphasizing critical safety protocols, including lockout/tagout procedures and the safe handling of the pumped fluid.

  • Basic Troubleshooting: Guidance on identifying common issues (e.g., cavitation, motor problems, seal failures) and the initial steps to address them before escalating to expert support.

  • Documentation: Reference to the complete system manual and any specific post-installation documents provided for future reference.

Maintenance

  • Visual inspections: Spotting leaks, abnormal noises, and vibrations is crucial for early detection of problems.

  • Performance monitoring: Verifying the pump's performance against its design specifications.

  • Part replacement: Replacing worn components like seals, gaskets, and impellers on a schedule to prevent failure.

  • Lubrication: Lubricating bearings and other joints according to the manufacturer's recommendations.

  • Cleaning: Cleaning strainers, filters, and impellers to maintain efficient flow rates.

  • Leak repair: Addressing leaks from seals, gaskets, or pipework.

  • Noise investigation: Diagnosing the source of unusual noises like clunking or cavitation.

  • Alignment checks: Adjusting motor alignment if it is a source of vibration.

  • Oil checks: Monitoring oil levels and condition.
