Pacific Electro-Mechanical, Inc.’s comprehensive preventive maintenance program includes the following during each preventive maintenance visit:
Preliminary discussions with operators and observance of pump station operation
Inspect critical structure components for corrosion, wear and fatigue
Lubricate pump motors in accordance with motor manufacturer’s recommendations
Adjust packing glands and clean packing box drains
Check of each pump and motor for unusual vibration
Test each pump performance under varying flow conditions, if possible
Check system pressure, voltage and motor amperage at shut-off condition
Check all electrical connections for tightness, test all electrical components for proper operation and make adjustments, if necessary
Check condition and operation of all manual and check valves
Clean flow sensor and wye strainers in system controls
Test for operational correctness and make necessary adjustments to hydraulic control and relief valves, if applicable
