How a dredge pump works-dredge pump maintenance
This chapter is going to talk about dredge pump maintenance cycles and parts replacement, every dredge pump takes a life cycle, and the dredge pump wearing parts, including dredge pump impeller, dredge pump casing, dredge pump suction wearing plate, frame wearing plate etc are the heart to the pump, so how a dredge pumps works in dredge pump maintenance takes an important role to dredge pump users.
How a dredge pump works-dredge pump maintenance safety warning
1. The pump parts are very heavy. Use the correct lifting equipment when moving, and pay attention to safety (see above for details).
2. Make sure the work site is clean and clean.
3. The mud pump must be repaired by a professional.
4. Use the right tools and equipment.
5. Before the work, the power must be cut off, and the warning signs of “power has been cut off” and “no operation” should be hung on the mud pump power control cabinet or other control facilities.
How a dredge pump works-dredge pump maintenance Maintenance plan
The maintenance cycle of the pump depends on the time the slurry and pump are running and the general maintenance is performed at least once every four weeks.
The first signs that the mud pump needs to be maintained are: pump performance (head) is reduced; flushing water pressure is reduced.
Mud pump maintenance procedures and cycle:
Inspection and testing of the entire pump ———————— 1-4 weeks.
Internal detection of the pump ——————————The pump runs for 1000 hours
How a dredge pump works-dredge pump maintenance Inspection and testing of the entire pump:
1) Prepare for maintenance.
2) Check the outer surface of the pump for signs of damage and corrosion.
3) Check if the pump is installed on the base correctly.
4) Check for damage to cables, wires or other supporting facilities.
5) Check the oil level in the fuel tank. If the oil level is lowered, you need to add lubricating oil.
6), preparation for pump start-up.
7) Start the pump and observe whether it is running normally and check if the pump performance is normal.
8) Check if the flushing water pressure is within the normal range.
9) Check if the pump leaks.
10) Check all fasteners such as bolts and nuts for looseness. If so, tighten them in time.
11) After the inspection is completed, turn off the pump.

1) Prepare for maintenance.
2) Check if the shaft seal leaks.
3) Check the lip seals and bushings on both sides of the shaft for wear. If it is found to be worn, it needs to be replaced.
4) Install the impeller.
5) Install the pump cover.
6), do the pump start preparation.
7) Start the pump and check if the pump is running normally, with or without vibration and noise.
8) After the inspection is completed, turn off the pump.
How a dredge pump works-dredge pump maintenance Maintenance when the pump is clogged
This section mainly gives the steps to clean the pump blockage.
First, the steps:
1) Prepare for maintenance.
2) Confirm that the liquid in the pump chamber has been drained.
3) Clear the blockage at the inlet and outlet pipes.
4) Clear the blockage in the pump cavity to ensure flexible operation of the impeller.
5), do the pump start preparation, then turn on the pump to ensure that the pump is running normally without abnormal sound.
6) Stop the pump.
