Maintenance Measures for Winter Slurry Pump

1. Cleaning and drying

In winter, the temperature is low, and the slurry pump needs to be kept clean and dry at all times to avoid oil stains and leaks, in order to prevent the pump body and components from freezing and being damaged.

2. Check the lubricating oil

The slurry pump has been injected with an appropriate amount of oil before leaving the factory to lubricate the mechanical seal, and this oil should be checked once a year. After three weeks, it is necessary to recheck. If the engine oil becomes an emulsion again, the mechanical seal should be inspected.

3. Check the cables and connections

Regularly inspect diving cables to ensure no wear or damage, and avoid leakage and short circuits. Confirm that the connection between the pump and the power supply is secure to avoid poor contact and equipment failure.

4. Anti freezing treatment

In cold seasons, if the pump is not in use, the liquid inside the pump should be drained to prevent freezing and cracking, and moisture-proof treatment should be taken.

5. Check the sealing components

Check if the sealing components of the pump (such as O-rings and mechanical seals) are intact to prevent liquid leakage and avoid damage to the environment and equipment.

6. Check the bearings

Check the bearing components of the pump to ensure good lubrication, and replace them if necessary to prevent malfunctions caused by wear and tear.

7. Check the packing material

The slurry pump is sealed with packing, which will become hard and lose elasticity after prolonged use, causing the slurry pump to leak water. Generally, new packing should be replaced.

8. Check the oil seal

Oil seals are rubber products that are prone to wear and aging, and generally require replacement with new parts.

The above are some maintenance measures for winter slurry pumps, hoping to be helpful to you.
