Book ·
OSTI ID:20000403

Hands-on maintenance for water/wastewater equipment deals with equipment maintenance as individual components, not as complete machines. This allows more information about the design, application and maintenance requirements of machinery to be presented. The text covers basic operating characteristics of machinery components, making it a valuable reference source as well as a training and maintenance manual. Written in easy-to-understand language, without complex formulas or technical theories, this text provides basic information to help one acquire a general understanding of how components function and how to keep equipment operating properly. Contents of Volume 2 include: explanation of machinery and identifies machine areas where breakdowns most often occur; facilitates development of maintenance schedules; lays groundwater for plant worker training; aids in rapid diagnosis of equipment problems; and offers data and illustrations on recent equipment. This book provides a hands-on, work-related inventory of wastewater plant components where breakdowns most frequently occur. The text explains the design, operation and maintenance of equipment critical to plant functioning: motors, pumps, blowers, mixers and more. The author demonstrates how careful attention to specific equipment parts and operation, especially through systematic maintenance, will lead to fewer breakdowns and more rapid repairs. The book can be used as both a plant reference work and a teaching tool.
