Mechanical seals can fail for a variety of reasons, including:  Improper Installation: Mechanical seals are precision components that require careful installation to function correctly. If they are not installed correctly, they can become damaged and fail, leading to leaks and other problems.  Incorrect Material Selection: The material used to make the mechanical seal must be…

Industrial pumps are crucial components in various industrial processes and it is important to ensure their proper maintenance for reliable and efficient operation. The following steps should be performed regularly as part of the maintenance routine:  Inspection: Visually inspect the pump for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Check for leaks and listen for unusual…

The volume of liquid flowing through a centrifugal pump can drop for several reasons. One common cause is a decrease in the system’s demand for liquid. If the system does not require as much liquid as the pump is capable of producing, the flow rate will decrease and the volume will drop.  Another cause of…

The most optimal way to run a diaphragm pump is to ensure that the pump is properly sized for the application, and that it is installed in a location that allows for easy maintenance and access. Additionally, it is important to properly maintain the pump by regularly checking for leaks, cleaning and replacing worn parts,…

There are several reasons why a mechanical seal may leak. Some of the most common causes include:  Improper installation: If a mechanical seal is not installed properly, it can create leaks. This can happen if the seal is not seated correctly, or if the components are not aligned properly.  Worn or damaged components: Over time,…

Pressure drop in a centrifugal pump occurs when the fluid being pumped experiences a decrease in pressure as it flows through the pump. This can happen for a variety of reasons, but some of the most common causes include:  Impeller wear: As the impeller in a centrifugal pump rotates, it can experience wear and tear…

Diaphragm pumps are widely used in a variety of industries due to their ability to handle a wide range of liquids and their ability to handle difficult fluids such as viscous liquids and liquids with high solids content. However, as with any mechanical device, diaphragm pumps can experience problems that can impact their performance and…

This slurry pump has a big problem… It has a broken liner and needs to be replaced. What did we do and how did the repair/replacement process progress? Removed old liner from gland casing Take note that we need to replace the old impeller as well Inspect the shaft and the O-ring of the shaft…
