The maintenance cycle for water well machinery varies depending on the type of equipment and usage. The core principle is regular maintenance to prevent moisture damage, corrosion, and performance degradation.
Deep Well Pump Maintenance Cycle
Short-term shutdown: Start the pump for half an hour every 7-10 days to prevent the motor from getting damp and the rotating parts of the pump from rusting.
Long-term shutdown: The pump should be removed from the well for repair, rust prevention, oiling, replacement of damaged parts, and reassembly before storage.
Motor Maintenance Recommendations: When not in use for an extended period, the motor should be disassembled, cleaned of dirt, and inspected for wear. Replace or repair as needed, and take measures to protect it from rain, moisture, and dust.
The motor can be covered with felt or plastic sheeting for protection.
Diesel Engine Maintenance Recommendations: Diesel engines used in the field should be moved indoors for storage when not in use and inspected, repaired, and maintained according to technical requirements.
