Diffuser redesign eliminates $100,000 per year on unplanned maintenance
Download this White Paper: Chemical plant was making frequent repairs due to a high vibration issue. A chemical processing plant had been experiencing high vibration and bearing failures on their Furnace Water Circulation pumps. This
The effects of changing plant operational modes on Boiler Water Circulation Pumps
Download this Case Study: Introduction: The rise in total generation capacity of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar is resulting in traditional “base load” coal generation plants being more frequently used to follow fluctuating
SRVB #12-Insulation Resistance (IR) measurements for wet stator motors
This service bulletin has been written as a response to questions regarding insulation resistance (IR) and to clarify how to interpret measured values of IR for wet stator motors. There are many factors that influence IR measurements such as
SRVB #11-Preparation and Verification of All Pressure Boundary Flanges on HT Boiler Water Circulating Pumps (BWCP): New Manufacture or Repairs
This Safety Bulletin is in response to customers asking about the suitability of hardware on connection flanges after return from shop service or upon initial receipt of a new motor. The below information serves as guidance about what needs to be
Upgrade the capacity of your BWCP thrust bearing
We understand that your plant is likely operating with quicker start-ups and shutdowns, and more frequent load changes than it was originally designed. These operating modes can cause pre-mature bearing wear or, in some cases, catastrophic failure
SRVB #8-Boiler Water Circulating Pump-Motor Rotation Verification
This procedure should be viewed as guidance to give the owner advice in verifying that the motor is operating in the correct rotation. It is not a guarantee of the correct rotation, as, at all times, good judgment must be utilized. It is very
SRVB #5-HT BWCP rotor to stator magnetic gap restack criteria
There has been much discussion over when to restack a BWCP rotor or stator for electrical performance reasons (i.e. not mechanical damage, but actual or anticipated performance degradation). There are four primary concerns with an increased
SRVB #3-Boiler Circulation Pump Cavitation
As most pump users know, that when cavitation occurs, it is the result of vapor bubbles collapsing within the impeller passages. It may be within the fluid or on the metal surfaces, and most often does cause vibration in the unit. If severe enough,
