Maintenance/repair
Check both wear rings (25) for uneven wear.
ƒ
Measure the bore of the wear ring (25) at intervals around the circumference with an
inside micrometre.
ƒ
Measure the impeller neck diameter at intervals around the circumference with an
outside micrometre. The comparison of both measurements indicates the amount of
diametrical clearance between wear ring and the impeller neck.
Indications for wear ring replacement and restoration of the original clearance:
ƒ
The clearance is 150 % or more of the original design clearance
ƒ
Further deterioration of the hydraulic performance cannot be tolerated in the next
operating period
If one of the indicators is true, replace the wear rings. The clearance between impeller
neck and wear ring must be restored to the original design value. This is done by in-
stalling wear rings with a small bore, bored out to suit the diameter of the impeller.
Examine the sleeves to see if they are grooved or worn. If there are grooves or wear, re-
place the part.
Examine the impeller
ƒ
For damage
ƒ
For corrosive /erosion pitting
ƒ
For Cavitations pitting
ƒ
for Bent or cracked vanes
ƒ
For inlet and outlet vane end wear
If damage is extensive, impeller replacement recommended. Before any decision on re-
pair work, ask Wilo for further information.
Check wear around the impeller neck as described in chapter "Check of wear rings".
Examine the shaft
ƒ
For the trueness
ƒ
for mechanical damage and corrosion
If the shaft is not true within 0.1 mm TIR (Total Indicated Reading), replacement or re-
pair is recommended. Before any decision on repair work, ask Wilo for further informa-
tion.
Examine the shaft keys and keyways for damage and wear. Remove and replace dam-
aged or worn out keys.
The ball bearings fitted on the Atmos TERA-SCH series are greased for life. No main-
tenance is required. Check that bearing rotates freely and smoothly, verify that the
outer ring presents no abrasions or discolouration. If there is any doubt regarding the
serviceability of the bearing, replacement is recommended.
