Site Manager
Background
The Original Brief: Working in conjunction with site manager; JJ Loughran engineers where called to sites to disconnect and remove motors from two End Suction Pump sets, namely the Return Fluid Pumps No. 1 and No. 2, Firstly engineers observed the operation of motors and verified site manager’s verdict; that drive end and non-drive end bearings on each of pump sets where in urgent need of replacement.
The Solution
On both pump sets, all appropriate safe lock off procedures where observed as required before any works commenced.
All required drive-coupling guards where removed and exact motor locations noted, for separation of motors from pumps. Cabling into motors was un-glanded and disconnected, motors removed from pump sets and brought back to JJ Loughran workshop for bearing replacement. Following replacement of drive and non-drive end bearings on both units, the motors where immediately delivered back to site, refitted, lined, electrically connected and tested.
