This EASA seminar will cover the common repair procedures for centrifugal pumps, including submersible pumps, vertical turbine pumps, single stage end suction pumps and split case pumps. The procedures are also applicable to other style pumps. For each type of pump, the inspection, disassembly, evaluation, repair and reassembly functions are presented. Pump test procedures will also be discussed.

This EASA program covers horizontal and vertical squirrel-cage induction motors in the 300 to 5,000 horsepower range, low- and medium-voltage, including how they work, specific information on enclosures, construction of components and applications. Many of the principles included apply to all AC motors, especially those with accessories that were associated with larger machines in the past (such as encoders, RTDs, thermostats, space heaters, vibration sensors, etc.).

One of the most important factors to consider is why a motor failed. This EASA seminar explores the cause of motor failures from the most common to the unusual. A methodology for identifying the most probable cause of failure is presented. An extensive resource manual includes hundreds of photos of a wide range of failures, with the likely causes listed, and a clear methodology for confirming the probable cause of each failure.

Automatica is a trade fair for intelligent automation and robotics covers the entire value-added chain: from components to systems; from services to applications—for all manufacturing sectors. It offers an overview of current developments and innovations and thus provides the necessary orientation and investment security. Whether autonomous production, climate protection, supply chain resilience or a shortage of skilled workers: Automatica addresses the major global challenges of our time. To this end, it explores the potential of the key technologies of robotics and automation and offers the greatest possible practical relevance as well as concrete solutions.
