Type Time Description
Seminar 8-10am

Solutions for the Toughest Water and Wastewater Pump Applications: From foam to scum, grit to sludge cake, mannich polymer to chemical sumps. You’ll see real world, proven solutions for the application of pumps to the most challenging applications. A diverse collection of pump technologies will be discussed, and many will be on-hand for disassembly, and review.

Seminar 8-10am

Energy Costs and Responsible Pump Controls: Updated and Revised! Energy is the highest cost factor for most pump installations. Identify inefficient pumping systems and understand practical techniques to reduce life cycle costs by eliminating excess system components and significantly reducing power consumption. Maximize mean time between failures with state of the art pump control technology.

Hands On    8-10am

Centrifugal Pump Assembly and Repair of Standard Process Pumps: Updated and Revised! This is our Mid-Atlantic Pump Symposium signature training class; Participate in the world’s largest hands on pump training class with practical how-to information given by expert millwrights. We have updated this program to reflect today’s pump repair priorities. (This Class is offered during the first and third session)

Seminar 8-10am

Selection and Failure Analysis of Mechanical Seals: Find out for yourself why most mechanical seals in industry fail to achieve the service life they are designed for. See how evidence from failed mechanical seals can tell the story of what went wrong. You’ll learn how to spot the symptoms of an array of failure conditions and will develop your own set of corrective actions to get the extended seal life you are looking for.

10:00-10:30am Break
Seminar 10:30-12:30pm

Troubleshooting and Operation of Metering Pumps: A Mid-Atlantic Pump and Process Equipment Symposium First! Metering pumps present unique challenges and operating characteristics. We will have an operating test facility to observe pump demonstrations and learn best practices in the operation of metering pumps.

Hands On 10:30-12:30pm

Installation and Maintenance of Mechanical Seals: Learn by doing in this hands on seminar designed to teach the basic types of mechanical seals and how to install them to achieve the longest possible service life. You’ll install both component and cartridge type mechanical seals, and wrench in hand, will pick up tips and techniques used by the experts.

Seminar 10:30-12:30pm

Predictive Maintenance and Condition Monitoring: New technologies support advances in cost effective, wireless, continuous condition monitoring of equipment. Experience first hand how predictive condition monitoring systems can help to avoid costly failures and unexpected downtime of your rotating equipment.

Hands On 10:30-12:30pm

Pump Assembly and Repair of Magnetic Drive Pumps: A Mid-Atlantic Pump Symposium First! Installations of sealless pumps have increased dramatically, and are expected to continue to do so.
