Oil Lubrication Systems For Process Pumps And Related Equipment
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1997)
Oil lubrication systems, when required and provided for the pumping system, are the life insurance policy for the process. If the oil lubrication system should fail to perform, the results are bearing failures in pumps, ...
Present Limits Of Operation Of Product Lubricated And Magnetic Bearings In Pumps
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1997)
Interest in nonoil lubricated bearings is growing, due to a number of benefits derived from these bearings: improved pump performance and reliability, enhanced pump maintainability, elimination of the cost and maintenance ...
A Comparison Of Positive Displacement And Centrifugal Pump Applications
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1997)
Positive displacement and centrifugal pumps sometimes seem to inhabit different worlds. Users are generally much more familiar with one type than the other. This causes some confusion when the user’s expectations are based ...
Troubleshooting Tactics To Improve Pump Mean Time Between Repairs
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1997)
Most pump reliability problems are rooted in basic errors that are made in the design, application, installation, maintenance, and/or operation of pumping systems. When the final, “correct,” solution to the system problem ...
Pump Life-Cycles And The Internet Utilizing Technology To Improve Pump Reliability
(Texas A&M University. Turbomachinery Laboratories, 1997)
Information technology, specifically computer mediated communication (CMC), will revolutionize the pump industry, from selection through installation, operation, and maintenance. There will be winners and losers. It will ...
