    Pump Failing Repeatedly? What an Overhaul Can Reveal

    The pump was repaired, went back into service, and has now failed again. Each stoppage affects the process behind it, and each repair that does not hold is more downtime and more cost.

    Why a pump might keep failing

    Pump failures rarely have a single cause. Wear, seals, bearings, how the pump is being operated, misalignment with its motor, vibration and the condition of the motor itself can all play a part. When only the visible fault is repaired, the underlying cause can remain.

    What dismantling and inspection show

    The condition of the parts inside a pump tells a story about how it has been running. Dismantling and inspecting the pump is how that story gets read. It shows what has worn, what has failed and, with the right engineering input, what is likely to have caused it.

    Looking at the pump and its motor together

    A pump does not work alone. Looking at the pump together with its motor, and at how the two are aligned, can matter as much as the pump repair itself. At EES Electro-Mechanical, pump repair and overhaul sits alongside motor rewinds and repair, and laser alignment, so the whole set-up can be looked at by one business.
