Syst-MP worked on a wastewater pumping station in Albufeira where both installed pumps were out of service. The diagnosis identified impellers blocked by waste, including rags, accumulated in the wet well.
Repairing the equipment
On the first pump, the work included replacing the bearings and mechanical seal, as well as changing the oil. On the second unit, the work also included rewinding the motor and replacing the capacitor and electrical cable.
The wet well was cleaned with support from a specialist external company, complementing the pump repairs.
Preventing further faults
For this installation, cleaning the wet well once or twice a year was recommended, followed by preventive maintenance of the equipment. The interval should be adjusted to usage conditions and waste accumulation.
Keeping rags and other unsuitable waste out of the wastewater network helps reduce the risk of blocked impellers. Cleaning and maintenance must be carried out by professionals with appropriate equipment.
Syst-MP — always pumping.
