On Site Pump Preventative Maintenance
& Site Performance Testing
One of the most important considerations for achieving long term, consistent reliability in any pump system is to have a regular preventative maintenance program. Precision Pump systems offers site preventative maintenance programs specifically tailored to your pump system for those who wish to proactively prevent failures, dramatically reduce down time and predict overhaul requirements to prevent catastrophic failure and prolong the life of your pumping equipment.
Customers can choose from the following list of services which can be customized to suit your pumping requirements, reliability expectations and budget:
- Annual, quarterly, seasonal or monthly scheduled service of pumps and motors
- Greasing and/or oil changes at set intervals
- Regular laser alignment checks
- Regular pump inspections including vibration measurement, temperature and physical internal inspection
- Service, testing and and inspection of vacuum priming systems
- Design a pump maintenance schedule for customers who have their own maintenance staff and want to do the maintenance in house
- Annual pump performance testing
- Full documentation and service records
Annual pump performance testing is an important tool for determining the overhaul requirements of a pump to prevent spiking in power costs due to inefficient operation caused by wear of the rotating assembly and premature failure. Pumps only ever fail when you need them the most so it’s vitally important to be able to predict, budget and prepare for the overhaul of critical pumping equipment rather than reacting to an unexpected failure that can lead to significant crop loss or expensive lost production.
