6.8 Examination of parts
Used parts must be inspected before
assembly to ensure the pump will subsequently run
properly.
In particular, fault diagnosis is essential to enhance
pump and plant reliability.
6.8.1 Casing, seal housing and impeller
a) Inspect for excessive wear, pitting, corrosion,
erosion or damage and any sealing surface
irregularities.
b) Replace as necessary.
6.8.2 Shaft and sleeve (if fitted)
Replace if grooved, pitted or worn.
6.8.3 Gaskets and O-rings
After dismantling, discard and replace.
6.8.4 Bearings
a) It is recommended that bearings are not re-used
after any removal from the shaft.
b) The plain liquid lubricated bearings may be re-
used if both the bearing bush and bearing sleeve
show no sign of wear, grooving or corrosion
attack. (It is recommended that both the bush
and sleeve are replaced at the same time.)
6.8.5 Bearing isolators, or lip seals (if fitted)
a) The lubricant, bearings and bearing housing
seals are to be inspected for contamination and
damage. If oil bath lubrication is utilised, these
provide useful information on operating
conditions within the bearing housing.
b) If bearing damage is not due to normal wear and
the lubricant contains adverse contaminants, the
cause should be corrected before the pump is
returned to service.
c) Lip seals and bearing isolators should be
inspected for damage but are normally non-
wearing parts and can be re-used.
d) Bearing seals are not totally leak free devices.
Oil from these may cause staining adjacent to the
bearings.
