Common failures & inspection points

Mechanical seal and gland packing leakage at shaft area

Inspect sealing surfaces for weeping or spray; verify seal cooling/quench system operational; check packing gland for proper compression and water drips

Bearing wear and oil contamination in bearing housings

Check oil level in bearing reservoirs; inspect for water ingress or discoloration; verify oil ring/paddle wheel rotation; measure bearing temperature and noise signature

Impeller cavitation and erosion due to low NPSH or suction blockage

Monitor suction gauge readings; check inlet screens and strainers for blockage; inspect impeller for pitting/erosion patterns; verify NPSH requirements are met

Volute casing or impeller wear-rings degradation and bypass leakage

Measure clearances between impeller and casing wear-rings with feeler gauge; inspect for erosion grooves; verify pressure test integrity; check for internal leakage indicators

Cooling water jacket fouling or internal passages blockage

Verify water cooling system flow and temperature differential across jacket; inspect for salt deposits or corrosion in cooling passages; flush cooling circuits if operation in seawater
