Maintenance Tips
-
Regular Inspection: Periodically check for leaks, unusual noises, or vibrations, which may indicate seal wear or misalignment.
-
Seal Lubrication: Apply silicone-based lubricant (not petroleum-based) to the shaft during seal installation to prevent damage and ensure smooth operation.
-
Flush Seal Line: In open systems, install a filter in the seal flush line to protect the seal from non-condensable particles.
-
System Fluid Quality: Maintain Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) below 500 ppm to prevent seal degradation.
-
Proper Storage: When not in use, store the pump in a clean, dry environment. Cover openings to prevent debris ingress.
-
Seal Replacement: If leakage persists after lubrication and system checks, replace the seal kit promptly to avoid further damage.
