TP

On ships, the TP pump is often used in HVAC and technical water circulation systems, handling heating and cooling water to maintain comfortable and efficient onboard environments. Designed for marine conditions, this inline centrifugal pump relies on electric drive to circulate water throughout the vessel’s plumbing and heating systems. However, like any mechanical equipment, it can encounter issues such as mechanical seal leakage, motor bearing wear, and impeller fouling, which can lead to reduced flow due to air locking. Regular maintenance is essential, including checking pressure and motor current, and venting the system as needed. During service, it is common to replace the mechanical seal, motor bearings, O-rings, and impeller to keep the pump running smoothly and efficiently.
