This text will explain just how and why the best-of-class pump users are consistently achieving superior run lengths, low maintenance expenditures and unexcelled safety and reliability. Written by practicing engineers whose working career was marked by involvement in pump specification, installation, reliability assessment, component upgrading, maintenance cost reduction, operation, troubleshooting and all conceivable facets of pumping technology, this text endeavors to describe in detail how you, too, can accomplish best-of-class performance and low life cycle cost. Your facility will get away from being a 1.1, or 2.7, or 3.9 year MTBF plant and will join the plants that today enjoy a demonstrated pump MTBF of 8.6. A new chapter on breaking the cycle of pump repairs will examine the cost of failures and the defined operating range of pumps. The authors will also explore mechanical issues, deviations from best available technology and provide info on problems with oil rings and constant level lubricators. Additional topics include bearing housing protector seals, ranking the different lube application practices, lubrication and bearing distress, and paying for value. |
