High lift pump repair and upgrade enhances efficiency for water utility
Utilising its large-capacity handling capabilities, which allow the company to manage and refurbish substantial infrastructure components efficiently, Hayley 247 DEXIS was recently tasked with the full inspection, repair, and upgrade of an 8-tonne high lift pump, a critical component in water distribution across London.
The aim of the work was to maximise efficiency, extend the pump’s lifespan, and reduce the total cost of ownership through comprehensive refurbishment and upgrades.
As part of the inspection, repair, and upgrade of the high lift pump, Belzona 1341 ceramic efficiency coating was applied to all internal water passageways, enhancing the pump’s efficiency and reducing operational costs. Running clearances were reinstated in accordance with water industry mechanical and electrical specifications to optimise performance. And the mechanical seal arrangement was upgraded in collaboration with sealing technology specialist Eagle Burgmann.
Hayley 247 DEXIS was able to utilise its in-house services, including grit blasting, coating, dynamic balancing, and machining, to ensure full control over the repair process.
