Power Ends Designed for Maximum Reliability Power End Reliability is vital when thinking about pump mean time between failure (MTBF). To ensure maximum bearing life, the 3180 follows four key factors: 2. Bearing Temperature Keeping the pump loads minimized and selecting the “right” bearing will keep bearing temperature under control. • Bearing Design Life • Bearing Temperature • Bearing Environment • Continuous Condition Monitoring Typical bearing operating temperatures of competitor’s process pumps are between 140–160° F. Goulds Model 3180 bearing temperatures average only 120° F (50° C)!...

A visual indication of pump health makes walk-around inspections more efficient and accurate. The result is a more robust process to monitor and maintain all your pumps so that your plant profitability is maximized. Labyrinith Oil Seals are Standard Contamination being the second leading cause of bearing failure requires special attention. Common lip seals were not considered due to their 2,000 hour design life. After wearing out, there will be an open passage way for contamination. Failures can happen between monitoring intervals Normal monitoring interval Onset of failure goes undetected...
