6.2 Maintenance schedule

It is recommended that a maintenance plan

and schedule is adopted, in line with these User

Instructions, to include the following:

a) Any auxiliary systems installed must be

monitored, if necessary, to ensure they function

correctly.

b) Check for any leaks from gaskets and seals.

c) Check bearing lubricant level, and if the hours

run show a lubricant change is required.

d) Check vibration, noise level and surface

temperature at the bearings to confirm

satisfactory operation.

e) Check dirt and dust is removed from areas

around close clearances, bearing housings and

motors.

f) Check coupling alignment and re-align if

necessary.

Our specialist service personnel can help with

preventative maintenance records and provide

condition monitoring for temperature and vibration

to identify the onset of potential problems.

If any problems are found the following sequence

of actions should take place:

a) Refer to section 7, Faults; causes and

remedies, for fault diagnosis.

b) Ensure equipment complies with the

recommendations in this manual.

c) Contact Flowserve if the problem persists.

6.2.1 Routine inspection (daily/weekly)

The following checks should be

made and the appropriate action taken to remedy

any deviations:

a) Check operating behaviour. Ensure noise,

vibration and bearing temperatures are normal

b) Check the level and condition of oil lubricant.

c) Check any auxiliary supplies eg.

heating/cooling, if fitted, are functioning

correctly.

Refer to the manuals of any associated

equipment for routine checks needed.

6.2.2 Periodic inspection (six monthly)

a) The coupling should be checked for correct

alignment and worn driving elements.

Refer to the manuals of any associated

equipment for periodic checks needed.

6.2.3 Re-lubrication

Lubricant and bearing temperature analysis can be

useful in optimizing lubricant change intervals. In

general however, the following is recommended.

6.3 Spare parts

6.3.1 Ordering of spares

Flowserve keeps records of all pumps that have

been supplied. When ordering spares the following

information should be quoted.

1) Pump serial number.

2) Pump size.

3) Part name – taken from section 8.

4) Part number – taken from section 8.

5) Number of parts required.

The pump size and serial number are shown on the

pump nameplate.

To ensure continued satisfactory operation,

replacement parts to the original design

specification should be obtained from Flowserve.

Any change to the original design specification

(modification or use of a non-standard part) will

invalidate the pump’s safety certification.

6.3.2 Storage of spares

Spares should be stored in a clean dry area away

from vibration. Inspection and re-treatment of

metallic surfaces (if necessary) with preservative is

recommended at 6 monthly intervals.
