Progressive Cavity Pump · Pumps
This is a progressive cavity pump designed for demanding marine environments. The Netzsch NEMO BY is built for handling challenging applications involving sludge, wastewater, and viscous liquids. Powered by an electric drive, this pump is ideal for sludge and waste transfer installations. The NEMO BY features a progressive cavity pump type for efficient movement of even thick and abrasive materials. To ensure reliable performance and longevity, Netzsch recommends regular maintenance practices. These include protecting the pump against dry running, flushing the system if the medium hardens, and inspecting the rotor/stator and joint assembly during planned maintenance schedules. Common potential issues include stator damage from dry running, rotor/stator wear, seal leakage, and joint boot failure. Spare parts readily available include the stator, rotor, seal kit, joint kit, drive-end bearings, and gaskets.

What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.
Protect against dry running. Flush if medium hardens. Inspect rotor/stator and joint assembly during PMS.
| Stator/rotor inspection | condition-based, commonly every 4,000-8,000 running hours depending on media abrasiveness |
|---|---|
| Mechanical seal/packing check | every 2,000-4,000 running hours |
| Coupling rod/joint inspection | at overhaul, typically annually |
Typical intervals for this design class, not the manufacturer’s figures for your model. The manufacturer’s manual is binding.
| Stator wear (capacity loss) | condition-based - renewal is usually judged on delivered capacity/pressure falling roughly 10-20% below baseline rather than a fixed dimension - confirm against Netzsch's own guidance |
|---|
Ranges are typical for this design class. Always confirm against the manufacturer documentation for your serial number.
Sludge/sewage pumps are generally checked under the pollution prevention (sewage treatment) survey scope where applicable, confirming the pump serving that system is operational and any required standby arrangement is in place.
Estimated lifetime: Progressive cavity pumps in sludge/wastewater duty commonly see stator and rotor wear parts last on the order of 2,000-8,000 running hours depending heavily on media abrasiveness and dry-run incidents; the housing and drive typically last much longer.
Stator, rotor, seal kit, joint kit, drive-end bearings and gaskets are recommended.
