Head (m)150
Inspection

Inspector Detail

Common issues

  • Mechanical seal leakage or premature failure from dry-running or misalignment
  • Impeller wear/erosion reducing head and flow
  • Cavitation from insufficient NPSH available, especially on stripping duty
  • Bearing wear from misalignment or lubrication neglect
  • Casing wear ring clearance increase causing internal recirculation losses
  • Shaft sleeve wear at the seal/packing area

Inspection checklist

  • Check discharge pressure/flow against the pump curve for performance degradation
  • Vibration monitoring at bearings
  • Mechanical seal leakage inspection
  • Coupling alignment check
  • Wear ring clearance measurement at overhaul
  • NPSH margin check against system conditions
  • Bearing temperature trend monitoring

Service intervals

Mechanical seal inspection/replacementtypically every 8,000-12,000 h or on leakage
Bearing lubrication/replacementper maker schedule, commonly every 8,000 h (grease) or annually
Wear ring/impeller clearance checkat major overhaul, typically every 3-5 years
Alignment checkafter any coupling-disturbing maintenance, and annually

Typical intervals for this design class, not the manufacturer’s figures for your model. The manufacturer’s manual is binding.

Typical wear limits

Wear ring radial clearancetypically renewed once clearance opens to roughly double the as-new value, often in the range 0.3-0.6 mm depending on pump size - confirm against KSB's clearance table for this model
Impeller vane erosionjudged by measurable thinning/pitting at inspection rather than a single numeric limit - confirm against KSB overhaul criteria

Ranges are typical for this design class. Always confirm against the manufacturer documentation for your serial number.

Critical spares

  • Mechanical seal (matching type/size)
  • Impeller
  • Wear rings
  • Shaft sleeve
  • Bearings

Safety

  • Cargo pump service may involve flammable or toxic cargoes - seal integrity is critical to prevent leakage into the pump room
  • Isolate and depressurise before opening the casing
  • Static bonding/earthing required where flammable cargo is handled

Class survey

Cargo pumps are typically covered by periodic performance and leakage checks under the ship's planned maintenance system; class surveys commonly review pump room gas detection and seal condition records where flammable cargoes are carried.

Estimated lifetime: Centrifugal pumps of this size and duty class typically run 20,000-30,000 hours between major overhauls under normal cargo service, with seals and bearings commonly needing attention well before then.

For marine equipment hardly any maker or authorised dealer will name a price while the vessel is unknown. With the vessel details, availability and price can be settled faster; without them we may have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you are not allowed to name the vessel, a photo of the rating plate is enough — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
