other parts of the pump. For example, dirt in the
impeller threads could cause the impeller to not be
seated properly against the shaft. This, in turn, could
cause a series of other problems. For these reasons,
it is very important that proper cleanliness be
maintained. Some guidelines are listed below.
•
After draining the oil from the bearing housing,
periodically send it out for analysis. If it is
contaminated, determine the cause and correct.
•
The work area should be clean and free from
dust, dirt, oil, grease etc.
•
Hands and gloves should be clean.
•
Only clean towels, rags and tools should be
used.
6.2 Spare parts
The decision on what spare parts to stock varies greatly
depending on many factors such as the criticality of the
application, the time required to buy and receive new
spares, the erosive/corrosive nature of the application,
and the cost of the spare part. Section 8 identifies all of
the components that make up each pump addressed in
this manual. Please refer to the Flowserve Mark 3
Pump Parts Catalog for more information. A copy of
this book can be obtained from your local Flowserve
sales engineer or distributor/representative.
Prior to resizing impellers in high
chrome iron and nickel, please consult your local
Flowserve sales representative.
